5.0 out of 5 stars Great TV, April 29, 2005

I also spent months & months looking at LCD projections & DLP's & LCos TV's. I compared this to LCD projections side by side on the showroom floor & this clearly had a better picture.

I've had this TV for about 5 months now & i'm not dissapointed one bit. The picture is perfect watching regular TV, playing DVD's or playing XBOX. In fact, it's awesome playing XBOX on it. I played on a projection LCD once...when zooming in with a sniper rifle on Halo on a large map, your resolution suffers. On the DLP, resolution is awesome when zooming in, on even the largest Halo & Halo 2 maps.

The blacks are black..and the brights are bright! The colors are awesome...the picture is way better than my friend's more expensive Plasma.
Me or any of the people who viewed my TV haven't experienced any rainbow effect.

The reason I got this, rather than the similar priced Samsung DLP was that this one had a HDTV tuner, it could handle 4 types of memory sticks, and it has a bunch more type of connections in the back...3 Firewire inputs, HDMI, CableCard, DTV, PC. Plus Mitsubishi has a lot more years of projection TV making experience than other brands.

My only complaint is the 'Power' button on the remote...it's too sensitive & big & close to the other buttons. I keep hitting it on accident...then I got to wait for it to power off...then power back on(20-30 seconds)

Hint for all large tabletop TV's...don't buy the expensive & usually useless TV stands that come with the TV(unless you really want a matching stand)..or the real expensive 3rd party stands at the store. For a TV this wide, TV stands can get expensive! Find yourself a cheap strong good looking coffee table that matches your room...make sure it has drawers or a lower level, to store your DVD player & other stuff if you want. Then get a cheap throw blanket that matches your couch or curtains & put it on top of the coffee table. Then place TV on top of the throw. This allows you to move & turn the TV real easily. This is helpful when you want to turn it around to face the kitchen table or just to connect wires in the back. When you buy the matching stand...you cannot move the sucker easily. This arrangement also looks great..it blends your entertainment center into your room decor a lot better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top of the line DLP projection TV, November 28, 2004

Excellent TV. Great picture and sound. Light enough to move around and top quality access to input/output options as well as having the card reader in the front for digital pictures is awsome. For the movie fan that demands top quality picture, this is it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best DLP or LCD available, March 19, 2005

I spent many a month and many visits to all the stores comparing side by side all DLP and LCD sets. When I saw the 52525 properly set up it blew them all away. Now that I have it I am very sure I made the right decision. I have a Mitusubishi Diamond CRT and this one is right there with it. The Blacks are as black as you will get on a digital. Has all the connectivity options and will be a winner for several years to come. Purchase the best now and it will be a lot longer before it looks like old technology..
