Picture, picture, picture. The 450 by a mile. Artifacts are much better controlled. I have the 450 for about a month. No problems. Did the Video essentials thing, learned a few tricks. Believe me, when you get the 450, you will become a critic of everything else you see. For a VERY EXPENSIVE tv, the speaker system is average at best. Expect to pay another $1000 for a small receiver and surround system. I am in the process of either building speakers or buying a surround sound system. I will probably enlist the help of this forum for a surround sound system recommendation.
I am a nasty critic of very expensive bull***t products that are sold as the best. If you pay this kind of hard earned money, expect the best. Beyond this, you are paying huge dollars for "lifestyle" products. Including plasma, projection, etc. Do not buy any leftover 400's. Buy the extended warrenty. These can be expensive to service.(This is a paid announcement by Son......)
Just kidding.
