Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $1999.00 from Fry's electronics, W

Summary:
This set has lived up to it's great reputation. We are very pleased with it's performance. The picture quality is extremely good via S-Video from My Dish Network Satelite reciever. But where this set REALLY shines is via the component inputs from our Toshiba SD-9200 Progressive Scan DVD player. When playing a movie via this source, the video quality is nothing short of amazing. As my wife stated the first time we watched "The Matrix", You don't just see Morpheus on screen, you see Morpheous's Pores onthe screen. More impressive are Vistas, as in Silverado. Some of the Huge Landscape shots just take your breath away. I cannot wait to report how an HD signal is delivered !!!

Strengths:
Gorgeous picture, quality construction, ease of setup, Verey good Wheels. Excellent connectivity.

Weaknesses:
Could use a couple more Aspect settings, but what is has are very well done.

Summary:
This is the ULTIMATE product. It has everything you need it to. Right now i dont have a progressive scan dvd player hooked up to it, but i hope to. Even without progressive scan it is AMAZING. The only let down that i had with it is....it takes a long time to tune. You need alot of patience.

Weaknesses:
TUNING THE MACHINE
