Summary:
If you can deal with the "larger" size (as compared to plasma, LCD, rear projection LCD, LCOS, and DLP), you won't get more for your money!

Strengths:
* Excellent picture quality (sharper than the Sony rear projection) * Ability to define and memorize display settings for each input source * Unbeatable price point * Fairly simple remote and navigation screens

Weaknesses:
* None beyond the inherent shortcomings of CRT rear projection (limited vertical / horizonal viewing angle)

Summary:
This is the most incredable TV I have seen. I had done my homework with this TV, I have always been a huge Mitsu fan as far as cars, I own a 94 Eclipse, and was a Sony fan for electronics. I mainly purchased Sony in the past because it was the best you can get for the price and I have never been let down by a Sony product yet. As far as bigscreen tv I have to say Sony has a lacking quality for picture? The tv it self{box and stand) was very atractive but once yop turn it on it lacks? Any way I compared with Toshiba, Panasonic,Sony,and Samsung and folks there is no comparing with the Mitsubishi... I guess you got to leave the bigscreen with the inventor!! Picture is unreal, sound is ok, but speakers are to small, Looks awsome(box and stand), Menu's are very easy to scroll through, Just the perfect tv!

Strengths:
Quality of picture, looks of box and stand, menu's!

Weaknesses:
Speakers to small, but really not a weakness cause when you are buying a hometheater Mitsu probley figures surroundsound systme is going to go along with it.

Summary:
great tv, has great color guns, and has a ton of inputs. I bought this tv through my discount so thats why i paid so less, but even the 1700 youll have to pay is well worth it.

Strengths:
-great color guns -light, easy to cary -nice, easy simple remote -great service through mits, if anything goes wrong (in home service) -one of the best brand name tv's out there (outperformes sony)

Weaknesses:
-no built in tuner -sound is average
