I've had my Panny for about 2 years and haven't noticed the black levels getting lighter. Then again I don't watch it 8 hours a day either.

While I'd be careful, I'd still get another one (and am debating it now)

http://www.vizio.com/vf552xvt.html - it's like $1700 some places.

It's now between this and the Panasonic plasma. My current TV is a 52 inch Vizio and I love it so I've become a fan of Vizio. Their new LED tho has me wondering.

In response to Reply # 29


  

          

I almost bit. I'm trying to hold out now for the 3-D joint. Brandsmart be having serious deals these days. My boy bought that 55B8000 tho last week. The picture is nuts. The Samsung 55C7000 3-D is supposed to be coming tho and if I find a deal on that I may cop... unless my wife forces me to get a new fridge. She wants one of them expensive ass french door fridges with the freezer at the bottom. And the one she wants is like $2100. I'm like wtf.

I've seen it hit that sweet point once on slickdeals, shoulda jumped then, cause the supply was so limited. But didn't have the cash at the time, and the creditcard I had woulda covered it, but killed me on the back end.

I really hope it hovers down that way again.

18. "i was gonna mention the increasing black levels "
In response to Reply # 15


  

          

but it looks like rjcc already mentioned it. i mean what the hell is panasonic doing? i bought my panny plasma specifically because of the good black levels. luckily i did it before this crap about them increasing automatically, that is, i have an older model. anyway, many people buy panasonic for the same reason and instead they kinda get duped.

Only does 480i/p and 1080i and doesn't have HDMI ports. And the colors aren't aligned properly anymore (I've tried fixing this to no avail). It's a 60 inch rear projection panasonic and it's about time to put it out to pasture. I might wait until the 3DTV's drop before copping a flat panel.

Overall, I'm pleased with it. Was a good option I feel with my budget. It costed 4 bills at Best Buy.

and it had a problem with a fuse and wouldn't turn on half the time.

amazon had a 32 inch 1080p lg on gold box sale for 380 a couple weeks ago so I copped it for the time being.

I figure i'll get a 3d tv later this year

I didn't like it when I saw District 9 displayed on it in the store, but when I saw that running on Hancock bluray... that shit looked nuts.

49. "that blew my mind actually...watching transformers blu ray"
In response to Reply # 45


  

          

first off I thought I was watching theatre. Then megan fox showed up and I DIDN"T RECOGNIZE HER because it's that accurate. Like no airbrushing (unless that's possible in dvds).

Then. You can completely tell it's a movie set too.

Like I like how movies can be immersive but the samsung 8500 is some other shit entirely.

but it took some getting used to...if I even did get used to it.

In response to Reply # 36


  

          

Mainly Panasonics and Samsungs and an occasional Pioneer top end joint. I feel somewhat overwhelmed in the store that I'm not going to make the right purchase. But I'm leaning toward a new samsung 3-D joint.

46. "should move this question in here: HELP!"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

anyone ever heard of Media Markt or had dealings with them? a quick google search named them the Best Buy of Germany, which is comforting, i guess, but i am still a little afraid and here is why:

i am looking at Panasonic G10s right now because the 42" is in my price point -- $790 on Amazon with free shipping. after speaking with a friend who works in AV, he suggested to look around and see how much the extra 4" would cost me. if i could find a deal for $100 or so more for the 4", he said it would be worth it. so, in my search tonight, i find that Media Markt has the 46" version of the TV i was considering at $840. this has no tax add on and the shipping is free. not only that, i can pick FedEx or UPS Express for no charge.

great, right?

concerns:
- the website looks a bit chincy. it works fine and i have ordered dvd collections from worse site with good results, but this is a significant purchase for me, so i am nervous.
- the confirmation page doesn't fill me with confidence:
>>Prepayment Goods will be delivered after the Orderamount has been transferred to our account.
>>If all the information is correct, click on the Print button and fax us the receipt to (888) 508-2597. ATTN : Order Departament
i have never had to fax an order for proof of purchase, so that seems weird, not to mention the misspellings and weird grammar.
- this really does seem too good to be true.

who knows, maybe this is just warehouse they ship out of in the states?

In response to Reply # 51


          

and yeah samsung charges 150 for their glasses retail, but if you buy the player and the tv at the same time you get two pairs free plus monsters vs. aliens, expect a lot of packins like that at first. panasonic is doing a similar setup with best buy, selling it all as one.


they also charge 80 for a wifi dongle.

they like to jack the price on the accessories, and until there's 3rd party competition, they will.
