..Regza. The Sony is 34" , the Toshiba LCD 47".

I always thought the CRT HD picture was the best ever, but after hooking up the Toshiba Regza, I have to admit the Toshiba opicture is better.

The Toshiba is even better on DVD from my Oppo DVD player. Standard def on the tosiba, which I rarely watch , is also much better than on the Sony.

The Sony was $ 1000 dollars 4 years ago, the Toshiba was $ 900.00. Better picture for less money.

Is it better than the Sony CRT?...although LCD is getting better over the years in resolving the black contrast quality, but you have to spend much more than $900.00 to get there.

Plasma on the other hand is almost there or equal in black contrast with the CRT.

If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing well

  I have cable ( Cox Communications ) , and the picture is really good in HD.
  I don't see any problem with the Black level.I actually prefer to watch the Toshiba now , rather than the Sony.
  At first, when I bought it, I didn't think I would end up that way. But now that it is up...
  
  Also 3 year warranty through Costco and Amex.
