I watch alot of SD and HD stuff (Sports) as well as dvd's but i wont be playing any video games on it if that matters


Any help would be appreciative

The second set listed is the exact same one you're returning, and if you don't learn how to prevent burn-in will suffer the same fate. The others are LCD based sets and not subject to burn-in but are about the worst LCD based rptvs on the market--poor contrast ratio and lack of crispness.

Hitachi made the last of the good crt based rptvs, never got the hang of microdisplays.
Since you can't seem to keep a crt based set from burning in, I'd suggest a microdisplay set from another mfg.--Sony, Samsung, Mitsubishi, Panasonic.

Well i didnt cause the burn in see what happened was i purchased a store display 51f59 from a store (REX) that was no longer gonna have a retail store in my city well got it home and realized it had screen burn allready from a dvd the store had sitting on there apparently at some point so i contacted REX and since im over 100 miles away from there nearest store they said they would send me $150 for the problem or i can drive the tv 100 miles and return it i took the $150 and ran lol so i will have $540 plus $150 plus im gonna throw in another $50-$100 so $approx $750-800 to spend total with tax and shipping.

ok so does anyone have a suggestion on a microdisplay unit for me? $800 max shipped

What about this?

Would the above tv be better then the 57F59 that im thinking about getting?
i want to get the best bang for my buck and would prefer to not go smaller then 50 inches so please throw some info my way please otherwise i will just go with the 57F59 cause i know its a good tv

Sorry, you didn't say in your original message that the burn-in was already on the set when you bought it. Since that is the case and it's fairly easy to prevent burn-in when starting with a new set by all means get the 57f59, it's the best option you have at this time.

Thanx steve i appreciate it and sorry for not mentioning the burn in issue allready being there in my orig post.

I think the 57f59 is gonna be what i purchase thanx alot.
