I find this thread really interesting too, since these are the exact two TVs I have narrowed my field down to (still possibly considering Tosh DLP some too but mostly these 2). I looked at these 2 sets side by side for quite a bit and thought that the JVC looked better by a hair. My wife complaining about the side speakers adds to the JVC as well as the fact I can get rid of my center channel and use the JVC speakers. My only con against the JVC is the fact that it is a new tech (at least in RPTVs), and some of the posts on here scare me, but so do the HLP posts I guess.
But at first when I saw your other poll I was thinking "this poll is really aimed at me
I will probably get the JVC when my local store gets the next shipment in next week. But both these set's pictures were awesome.
