Hi all,I would like to thanks all. I finally got the Sony 50WE610. I have been gone back and forth to CC, Goodguys, bestbuy to watch and compare all these model, Sammy HLN5065W, Sony 50WE610, and Philips 977S. Somehow, I kept go back to the SONY. The picture so good and the color so nice, even with regular DirectTV digital signal.
Here is what I found:
1. Sony: good: Beutiful picture, detail, color, bright, but black
level exceptable. Cost
bad: Light bulb likely to survive only 2000hrs.
(I actually trade off this 2000hrs to get good
picture). Stupid stand cost2. Samsung: good: Detail, color, bright, black, 8000hrs light
bulb. acceptable stand cost.
bad: blurry picture with regular D signal, look good,
headace when watching for a while, or while
looking for some detail. Noisy fan even at the
store, you can here it if you put your ears near
the back. Cost.3. Philips LCOS: good: Bigger screen, 55", no pixle, look good,
Light bulb 6000hrs. Smooth screen motion.
Acceptable stand cost.
bad: white wash, washout the entire screen
detail, this is unacceptable.Thanks all again. Now more work for me to set it up.
