I can second the AVS forum for the skinny on the two tvs. D-Nice has some excellent info on set up and performing a good burn in of a new plasma. Item 4)I can comment: Off axis viewing with plasma tvs is not a real issue. LCD tvs are the ones with off axis issues. Those are both excellent sets you are shopping for and I am sure you will be blown away by the video performance of either set.
Samsung PN64D7000 VS. Panasonic TC-P65VT30
Ok, we are at the home-stretch and it's come down to the 64" Samsung Plasma or the 65" Panasonic Plasma.
I'm really torn on which one, so I am open to feedback on the following:
1) Picture Quality
2) Reliability/Service History of Problems?
3) Sound Quality from the TV's Built-In Speakers (for regular TV viewing, not surround)
4) Off-Axis Viewing
5) Performance in Well Lit Rooms
6) User-Friendliness when Streaming (Netflix, etc.) from the Internet.
I have a hunch that this may just come down to personal preference. However, if you have any experience with either or both of these models that would offer a strong pro or con, please share your thoughts.
Thank you.
