I just sold my Mitsubishi DLP 65" 65C9 hoping for a sweet deal on a new TV on black friday. I missed all of the doorbuster crazy cheap deals so now I'm looking at 3 TV's. I don't care about 3D or Smart TV. Our living room is pretty big, the couch is like 13-14 feet from the TV. I pretty much always watch in the dark. What would you guys go with?
First I was thinking stay with DLP, just go bigger. The only thing that bothered me about my old DLP was you couldn't lay in the floor and watch because the picture would get pretty dark. Also the DSE (dirty screen effect) make the picture look kind of crappy with some content. I watch alot of NBA and the courts sometimes would get it pretty bad.
Then I looked at the Vizio 65" LED but I've heard it has banding and some light leakage and flashlighting and all that.
Then I looked at the Panny 60" plasma but I'm not sure if losing 5" of size from what I had would bother me that much. 60" plasma vs 73" DLP is a pretty big size difference.
VIZIO M650VSE 65-inch Razor LED Smart FHDTV
I can get this TV for $1088.
or
Panasonic TC-P60U50 60-Inch 600Hz Plasma HDTV
I can get this TV for $806 from Panasonic.com.
or
Mitsubishi WD-73742 73-Inch 3D DLP Home Cinema HDTV
I can get this TV for around $850-$900.
