Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description The WD-73734 is a mammoth 73-inch DLP (Digital Light Processing) rear-projection HDTV from Mitsubishi that incorporates the latest technologies for an accurate picture that is perfect for a large home theater system.

Giant Performance, Small Footprint
Because the latest Texas Instruments 1080P DLP chip is inside, this television yields the full 1920 x 1080 high-definition resolution with progressive scan, the highest quality HDTV standard today. With a television this size, offering more than two million pixels is important to prevent visible pixelation.

The WD-73734 supports the x.v.Color standard for 80 percent more color than standard HDTV. View larger. View back panel.

Despite the large screen size, the WD-73734 weighs less than 100 pounds and is only 17.5 inches deep. View larger.

The television can display any video signal that is connected to it. When a 1080p signal is the input, it passes through with no down conversion: The 1080p signal is maintained from beginning to end, giving the best picture quality. When a lower resolution is detected, whether it is 720p HD or a DVD, the signal is automatically scaled to display at 1080p, with minimal side effects and a very detailed picture.

The screen is huge and the technologies are many, but the unit itself weighs less than 100 pounds and is only 17.5 inches deep, which means it will fit into many decors.

More Color
The WD-73734 incorporates a slew of new technologies that combine to give this television the most realistic color reproduction available on the market today. The new x.v.Color standard is supported, which dramatically increases the color space available, with 80 percent more color than standard HDTV.

The WD-73734 also supports Deep Color, a new standard that incorporates 10-bit color depth, versus the previous 8-bit color depth. With Deep Color, shaded images show less banding and greater contrast.

Coupled with this technology is Mitsubishi's exclusive 6-Color Light Engine, which uses six primary colors instead of the traditional three to create more colors. Mitsubishi's Color 4D Noise Reduction, PerfectColor, and PerfectTint yield a wider color palette and the ability to fine tune the set to your exact preferences. The end result is a brighter, smoother, and more realistic picture than ever before.

Connections Galore
You don't need to worry about running out of connections with the WD-73734. It has a total of four HDMI 1.3 inputs with Simplay HD certification, three in the rear and one in the front, so you can connect your Blu-Ray player, HD DVD player, and still have two inputs left over. It also has three component video inputs (two rear, one front), a front USB connection so you can display up to five-megapixel photographs, and two A/V inputs with S-Video. It has a Dolby Digital/PCM output and an analog stereo output. Mitsubishi's NetCommand enables the included partially illuminated remote to control an entire home theater system.

The WD-73734 is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.

What's in the Box

This review is from: Mitsubishi WD-73734 73-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV (Electronics)

I bought the Mitsubishi 73" in June 2006, had it for a year with AWESOME results. Sold my house and the guy who bought it loved the TV so much that he wanted to buy it with the house. Bought a new house and bought the latest 73" mitsu available (73734), and I've had it now for about 3 months....better than ever. I've had about 5 friends buy the same TV after seeing how awesome this set is. You feel like you're at the game with this awesome tv. I never take the time to write reviews....but this TV is worth it. For under $3k.....best tv for the money.

Item was shipped sooner than was promised. Delivery men were very helpful and cooperative. Television works very well, no problems and we are very satisfied. We also ordered the stand ...the earthquake strap did not come in the package, but we contacted customer relations and it is being shipped to us separately. We expect to get it with the same service.

This review is from: Mitsubishi WD-73734 73-Inch 1080p DLP HDTV (Electronics)

power center failed after one day. I understand this is not an uncommon problem. To Amazon's credit, they offered a full refund and paid for return shipping. I ordered a replacement from another source, as Amazon could not ship another for 4-6 weeks. The replacement WD-73734 just arrived. Again, great picture with no distracting electronic hum as mentioned in other posts. I found the manual hard to follow when attempting to integrate an AVR receiver, and one HDMI "auto-sense" port did not "auto-sense" the HDMI input. I also noted picture alignment problems resulting in a minor barreling of the image. Not enough to require a service call or return the unit, but enough to question Mitsubishi's quality control. Other posts have mentioned less than optimal experiences with Mitsubishi customer support, so I won't even attempt to call them.

If you want a beautiful high definition television, this is it. However, I am keeping my fingers crossed...
