Every Sony I SXRD I have seen are eye-catching but ultimately unnacceptable out of the box. They come with the color levels cranked way up. Just look at scene taken in a lush green forest. But wear your sunglasses. I have seen a couple of ones that that have been adjusted. Those were much better. Take a look at the new JVC I-DLA. I haven't seen one yet but they are getting great reviews for their picture quality. Supposedly they are one of the rare TVs that have true colors out of the box. And they are only 11" deep. This is an RPTV. Apparently shallow RPTVs are on their way. The one complaint with the JVC is the linear distortion on the edges. The reviewers don't seem too upset by it, but I haven't seen it. That is the result of the shallow depth. Though there is a technology coming on that is suppose to correct for all of this. Add in laser or LED bulbs and I am pretty excited. Next year, maybe. Plasma has burn-in and reliability issues. Though from most reports done right it blows away LCD. I am not sure. Pretty much every Plasma I have seen looks more like an over produced poster than a photo. DLP has the color engine, though LED illumination gets rid of that and LCDs aren't big enough yet. Of course, the real problem with almost all of them is that they are set at the factory way over the top for color. And your big box stores just leave them that way. So how do tell how good they can look. Drives me crazy when I go into the stores. Most of the TVs on display are horrible. At least that is my take on it.
