I need some advice base on the following conditions (BTW I purchased the Hitachi 57SWX20 when it came out the wife and my self were not impressed with the pic quality we got from Direct Tv, DVD's were great)


1. We sit 8 to 10 feet away from set.

2. There is a window right next to where the tv will go but is well covered other than that no direct reflected windows on set.

3. We would watch 80% DTV 20% DVD (tho i have over 100 dvd tittles we do not watch them often)

4. Considering using a HTPC with a H3D card or maybe just a RADEON AIW 9700. but for the time been just regular feed from DTV.

5. have a budget of 3500 or under for tv.


Thanks for any suggestions.

I do not think you are going to get a good picture from satellite on anything larger than 32". Acceptable maybe, but hardly good.


This is, of course, just my opinion.


edit: ESPECIALLY FROM ONLY 8-10 FEET AWAY.

I was in a similar situation, and I just got an Pioneer Elite 530 that is doing a great job. I was able to get it for around the price you are looking for. I sit from 9' to 11' and the picture is good for most of the Direct tv stations.
