Better than my 32" Sony Wega XBR?

I would love to go to a flat panel tv. But, I have not seen anything (I've tried the ususal retail outlets) that can compete with the image quality of my Sony Wega XBR. Every flat panel tv of any kind that I have seen a) blacks out shadow detail, and b) and suffers from artifacts.

Have you found any flat panel at ANY price that has the kind of shadow detail in the XBR?

Have you found any flat panel for less than $5000 that beats the shadow detail of the XBR?

I really like the idea of a flat panel. Jeff

I had an XBR 36" HDTV CRT Sony - the only thing that comes close is Panasonic Plasma IMHO...you gain in precision geometry an dbrightness but you still lose a bit in dark scenes. Overall,,,,I think Panasonic Plasma is a slight improvement...

LCD .....forget it - hopeless at dark scenes....although Blade Runner on Blu Ray with 1080 P screen and proper 1920 x 1080 pixels is utterly AMAZING - best Blu-Ray I have seen so far and I have seen amost...

Good Luck.
