    I Finally Pulled The Trigger For An HD TV

    Square Deal and other warranty companies sell direct to consumer. If you check over at slick deals you can see what's cheap warranty wise. I bought a warranty for our JVC HD-ILA RPTV that had unlimited lamp replacements, didn't go extended warranty for my Panny plasma though. Here is a link...

    Which one would you get

    Plasma, I'm a hockey fanatic and the NHL has the fastest action/camera pans. No contest. LCD is great for slow tours of Art museums regardless the scan rate.

    Here is a $1000, now what TV would you buy?

    The Panny 50" Plasma can be had all over the place under $1000, it's what I have in my office. I've recommended it to several people who subsequently purchased it and everyone raves about it. the 480Hz sub-field eliminates motion blur with great black level.

    Plasma Sparklies

    Poor quality cables perhaps? If it is degrading slowly perhaps the connecter is slowly corroding. Remove the video cable(s) and clean the connectors. Let us know if it helps.

    new tv and antenna for my elderly folks...

    One of our sponsors, Sadoun, has some decent amplified indoor antennas on clearance. I don't know of any TV's that come with an antenna anymore, margins have plumeted and it's a cost the manufacturers don't want to bear.

    65" Sharp AQUOS 1080p LCD

    I put one in for a guy in the spring and he likes it. It does suffer on sports due to the lack of 120Hz.

    Mitsubishi HD1000U / HC1500, you gotta see one!

    From what I've heard the 1600 only has a 2x color wheel. I'll get it straight from their mouth next month at CEDIA.

    Moving An Old Style Rear Projection Television

    Many CRT RPTV's are able to be disassembled insofar as removing the top (screen mirror) part of the set. I've seen quite a few sets like that get moved to a basement only to not work again. And WELCOME to Satelliteguys!

    Projector vs tv?

    As of last night there was a low hour HC 4900 1080p LCd on AVS classifieds for $1249! Projector makes more sense. Easy to move, you EXPERIENCE TV instead of WATCHING TV. You can buy extended lamp warranties online really cheap. I'd much rather go 106" for under a grand (HC1500) than ANY...

    What projector to get?

    That Panny is made for gamers. While Panasonic usually boasts about hollywood producers helping them do the color depth and correction, their push this year with the AX200 is all about gaming and no lag. At CEDIA they had some gamer champ on hand that helped them tweat the AX200 to optimize it...

    Any decent HDTVs < $500?

    There are vast differences between the panels and video processing. Zenith is LG's 2nd tier brand. When panels are manufacturered they are tested. The ones that operate best are graded "A", the next level "B" etc. The lower tiers DON'T spend the money on A panels, nor do they spend it on...
