I finally ended up with the 60" Wega Sony and I love it!
Believe it or not I actually purchased the 65" Mitsibuishi CRT unit first, but after the first day I pleaded with the store to take it back for exchange.
High def signals looked great but... Video tapes looked ugly!!!
Now, I know that is not the ideal medium to play on such a large image , but the Sony seems too handle that input much better.
Again,High def broadcasts are awesome, so I find myself watching very little Video Tape now. But, lets face it, we probably all have treasured tapes of our early lives, some sets will display them fine (like the Sony) and some sets make it look like a big blur with smeared colors! (Even with SVHS Tapes!!!_
The 60" Sony picture in High Def is as good and as bright as any Plasma set I have seen (in 50" version.)
The only drawback with the Sony LCD is on extremly dark scenes the detail gets lost.
I am not sure how the Plasma units handle the dark scenes,but the Mitsuibuishi CRT did fine .
