"Decent TV but not Great"
Pros: Excellent HDTV picture, Nice DVD output with HDMI connection
Cons: Less than average SDTV picture quality, long start up time
Summary: I went back and forth between my decission to buy the JVC 61 inch D-ILA or the Sony Grand Wega 55 inch LCD TV. Both of them looked Great in HDTV mode at the store.
The JVC became on sale for over 800 less than the Sony so I decided on the JVC.
Big disappointment once I had it up and running. The Non HDTV or SDTV via Direct TV was plaqued with major artifacting and chromatic abirations. I adjusted the set several different ways but you can't get rid of the artifacts in normal mode. In HDTV the picture looks GREAT. No artifacting or blurriness of any sort. Crips and sharp images every time in HDTV mode and great DVD picture as well. But sadly most transmissions are still in SDTV and I can't settle for a part time Pleasant picture and a most of the time lousy picture. I am returning the JVC for the Sony and hope it's better than the JVC in SDTV mode.
