Price I paid at PC Richard. This set goes for 2600 minimum. Workmanship, craftmanship, onsceen menus, remote, picture quality, screen engineering, looks awsome and fits my decor nicely...

No RGB or eee1934 input

After considerable auditions of HD rear projection wide screen monitors from manufacturers like sony, mitsubishi and hitachi, I decided I woulg purchase the 57GWX20B by hitachi. In the final analysis, the two choices I was left with were both hitachi's. the other is the 57SWX20B but the cost didn't justify the slight improvement over the GWX which has the same screen engineering. All I can say is that I'm very pleased with my purchase. This tv is stunning. I have digital cable and HD cable through Time/Warner connected via Component input and the picture is crystal clear. There was a significant red push out of the box. I contacted hitachi who referred me to a service center. The tech arrived, went into the tv cabinet, made some adjustments and the tv is now dead on. What a treat. I watched Star Wars: War of the Clones and was rivited to my couch throughout the entire movie. I use a pioneer elite dv-05 player. The tv reads dvd's at 480i then upconverts it to 540p or 1080i. I will buy the pioneer elite progressive scan dvd 45a which will improve upon an already outstanding picture. I can't wait! I have a serious surround system so I cut off the internal tv speakers. I use the infinity il series 40, 10, 25 and 100. Powered by pioneer elite 27tx receiver. Popcorn anyone?

Good picture quality, good sound with SRS & BBE turned on, DVI input.

DVI shares audio inputs with one of the componet hookups so you must choose one or the other (the Sony I had before had seperate audio for DVI)!

I like this TV! I had trouble at first with blockiness using regular satellite signal but turning down the sharpness has helped a lot!
