Lasted 16 months before it died.
Pros: Good picture.

tv only lasted 14 months
Pros: had a good picture for a while.
Cons: TV died after 14 months (no I didn't buy the extended warranty). $969.00 way too much to pay for a dust collector. too heavy, terrible sound at higher volumes -hiss, rattle, etc.

Great picture, too bad it's distorting.
Pros: Very good picture for about 5 months then it starts to pull on the edges. Plenty of video/audio inputs.
Cons: Way to heavy! Picture starts to pull have to call a tech to come out and adjust picture. Speakers rattle when bass hits, you may also want to buy a home stereo. No hand holds to help out with the extreme weight.

HeavyAss TV w/good picture
Pros: Good picture. Makes Tv image larger then you would expect. Alot of AV ins and outs. Makes PS2 look real good. With a decent surround system will make a nice living room experence.
Cons: Viedo inputs keep comming in and out. Constantly changing picture from video1 to video2, antenna1 to antenna2. It's to heavy to return, or take to the repair shop and get a free estimate. Will wait untill all inputs short out before I move this beast.
