Every store display always show those monitors playing a HD feed from a DVD or some other VERY high quality feed. The DV (direct views) were
almost always hooked up to cable or a satellite feed. DV's never look as good so I had the store disconnect a Plasma tv from it's super feed and hookup the same feed as the DV's.
Try it and then you'll see. These monitors when feed regular cable or satellite they then can't compete with a good DV. If you watch only OTA HDTV or a progressive DVD then one of the HD monitors (DPL, Plasma, LCD) are an excellent choice, but if you watch regular cable or satellite then a DV is the way to go.
Go try.
