I know this has been talked about before, but how much difference do you REALLY notice with HT use when you use a P 43 phosphor (fast recovery?)


The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting a 9000LC and a 9500LC in within a week that have these P 43 tubes in them.


What can I expect, and should I order new tubes in? (these supposedly have 0 wear on them!)


Thanks!

I still say the 10PG is the best dam PJ out there bar none, they have

Well I've been sitting on one with NEW NEC G and B tubes, but it's buried right now under 120 other sets..

I don't think most people could tell the difference. Don't listen to all this flicker crap, it's BALONEY. I've used MANY of them and in certain respects, they're even BETTER than the 22's. You've got eyes, look for yourself and YOU tell me.

Frankly, I was looking for terms like '3 dimensional', 'warmth', and 'smooth imaging'.


This down to earth tech talk has gotten me all confused..


I will indeed report when I see them myself late this week or next week.

No 3D without dual projectors and polarizong filters.


How about...it looks smooth as a baby's as*.

There is definite no more flicker with these tubes.

I could not tell the difference in a blind test.

And how about grayscale tracking and primaries?

I really would like to see a primaries measurement of a set with a P43 tube in it.

Agreed, I've used P43 tubes too, with no problems at all.

The P43 would actually be preferable in some circumstances. less phospher induced streaking

Well, I guess not. I'll bet the blacks were perfect though...
