One of the sales people told me that LG bought out Zenith and continued improving on the plasma technology. There was in fact a Zenith branded plasma in the showroom along with the LG and LG looked better. Go figure.

Here's an interesting issue that cropped up but not a major problem. There are a couple of remote codes on the LG that are shared with my PS Audio preamp! One of them shuts down the preamp and the other skews the balance to the right. This shouldn't be a problem under 'normal' use. I was testing out all the features and making adjustments to the LG picture when I ran into this. Under normal operation these controls wouldn't be used.

Thanks for the info on the Theater Master MX500. I'm not yet familiar with it. I have an old original Philips Pronto that has helped to minimize remote clutter.
