i think i am a bit turned off by projection technology. Don't know if i can tolerate the darkened corners of the screen adn the very limited viewing angle. Picture wise...it's better than LCD front projection, i belive, though.
& WD65732 65" & 57" DLP screens, for $23 & 2900 respectively. Looked like a good image. BTW, Fry's salesman had none too good things to say about SXRD technologyt. He showed me a 60" Sony unit with yellowing blue around center of screen. It covered a good 1/5th of the screen. He said he's heard of many issues with SXRD technology. Yeah yeah, a Fry's salesman saying all this...but he did know alot about different technologies that i quizzed him on.
I've got the Sony 60" SXRD XBR2 and in a previous post compared it to the Mitsubishi (I was at my local Sound Advice/Tweeter for hours, they almost set me up in the back room) - I will say that there are more tweaks available with the Mitsu, and the picture was stellar but I preferred the Sony set hands down simply because of the clarity and contrast which was slighly better. I've had it for about 3 months now and the picture is tremendous. No bluing issues or green blobs, just a stellar LCoS picture and I can tell you in conjunctin with my Sony 9000es with only the 480P output (audioquest component cables), some of my better recorded DVD's or Super Bit discs have a very near HD look to me at least compared to the down converted cable TV sorts. Of course if I had and HD/blu ray player to compare side by side it wouldn't be, but compared to the signal I'm seeing on the HD cable channels (HDHBO, Discovery, TNT etc..., it's very close and it's only the better recoreded discs that I'm seeing this with and was actually very suprised to see this.
I thought the JVC D-ILA's looked better that Sony SXRD and prefer Plasma over all of them but the new DLP's with LED backlighting should also be very good.
Lots of issues with the first SXRD TVs. The infamous "green blob". Some people had it, others didn't. It was a warm-up/temperature issue. Sony denied it existed. They ended up replacing lots of optical blocks, something they no longer do. Supposedly, the SXRD 2 has the problem fixed.
