I would like to thank home theater forum for allowing me to join this fine arena of enthusiasts, professionals, etc..
To start off, I'm a beginner in the home theater business, and to be honest one, of the main reasons why I joined is to gather every bit of valuable information I can from anyone who can help me build my own home theater within the next month or two and within my budget.
With that out of the way, I have narrowed down two possible HDTV that I like. That is, unless someone else has an opinion of a better HDTV for my budget of up to $5k.
In the red corner, I have the Mitsubishi Diamond series 65" model #WS65908. I believe this is a 2000 model and retails for $4,999.99. It is not Direct Tv ready and requires the DTV box converter. I think I can get abetter deal now since the 2001 models are coming.
In the blue corner, I have the Pioneer model #Pro-710HD 64" and is Direct TV ready. it retails for $5237.00
Can anybody help me with comparisons for best picture quaility, lowest maintenance costs, and overall performance. Thanks.
