I find the picture on the new flat screen tubed Sony, slightly distorted anyway. It seems that the picture dips in, like looking through a concave lens. Is this an effect one gets used to?
I find the picture on it also lacks fundamental resolution. It's clearly not putting as much info up on the screen as the best RPTV HD set I've seen (the Pioneer Elite)...Joe
According to Stereophile's Guide to Home Theatre, this is a problem that a proper setup can deal with. You need an ISF certified technician to do the setup. They also seem to think that HDTV will take about 5 to 10 years to catch on. Same thing happened with color TV when it first came out.
Do you mean that they can correct the distortion? What is set-up wrong in the first place? You would think that in the showroom they would have it set up right
Showrooms don't like it set up right unless you are in a hiend shop, maybe. They want it bright as can be to compete with all the other tvs and room lighting.
I bought a great TV (Runco DTV-5800)that is fabulous for current standards that also happens to do HDTV. That's why I bought mine.
