Had our Panasonic set delivered on Saturday. My only regret is not going with plasma sooner! Everything looks amazing on this thing, very pleased with our purchase. I also completed my transition to Centurylink DSL service, no change as far as the VOD is concerned. I am running at 37.5 down and...

Thanks for the advice about calibration, I will research the calibration discs and use the THX setting. About the heat, we are in Phoenix so I know where you are coming from. We lived in Ft. Lauderdale for about a year while my partner was on a job there, I definitely don't miss that humidity...

I'm sure it will be great. Everything I've read seemed to point toward Panasonic, and it was one of the highest rated online. Now I just have to decide if I want to pay Best Buy $250 to "professionally" calibrate it. I've never had dealings with their Geek Squad employees.

The PQ was not the only issue. My VOD still does not work, and it took 2 weeks for them to decide that it is a known issue that will be fixed via software update. Since the techs tried to downplay the PQ, the main reason they were dispatched was for the broadband problems. Plus, it took 4 techs...

Thank you for the reply. I went ahead and ordered a Panasonic TC-P60GT50, it will be delivered next Saturday (could not find one in stock locally). A tad more than I wanted to spend, but easily justifiable as this is a long term investment. I normally spend my tax refund on toys anyway :p.

That sucks about your house getting broken into. Yes, it is good to know that they all carry that feature. I didn't really look at the 60 inch, but maybe I should have. I'll take a closer look at the Panasonic line as well.

I must say, the plasma sets definitely look nicer...even in the store. The LG 50PA6500 stuck out with it's $599 price tag (promised to keep this purchase as low as possible :p). While it is not a smart tv, it doesn't really matter since my bluray player has all of the streaming services. The...

Very cool, thank you for the advice and info.

I have heavy curtains that completely block the light, and I have my TV set up to where there is never any glare. I definitely prefer dim lighting while watching TV, its much better on my eyes. I'll take a look at the LG's too then, I will probably head back to best buy this afternoon to see...

Thank you for the opinion! This one caught my eye Samsung PN51e550D1FXZA.

Update: Still looking better this morning. As far as the motion blur, I imagine the only sure fire way fix that would go with a plasma. Never owned one, but I am looking at the them online...wow much more cost effective and seem to carry the best reviews. I may just have the LG repaired, donate...

Yep, guess so. Unfortunately that doesn't account for the VOD problems...but hopefully the switching ISP and or update from Dish will rectify that :). I am noticing some picture distortion on the new set, but only during fast movement. When the picture is still it is very nice, so that tells me...

Pixelating and jumpy picture via Joey on the 55in. I had the same channel going on both TVs and there is a distinct difference, wish I had 2 blu-ray players to test that as well. My partner said his hunting game on the 360 looks less laggy and jumpy, I cannot comment on that because I have not...

Hooked up the Joey via HDMI and the TV is claiming there is no input. Do I need to hook the composite cables up and then switch to hdmi through the Joey?

Ok, not sure what happened here. Tried to post and it would not go through, so if this is duplicate I apologize. New display is not pixelating while displaying Dish, I have no idea why but there it is. I said the PQ was not outstanding, but on par with what we had through Cox is acceptable. It...
