What size/price/aspect ratio, etc? There is much to choose from. Hard to generalize about particular brands. Pioneer, particularly the Elite line, have good pictures but are a bit pricey. Also, Pioneer and Mitsubishi tend to overemphasize red (red push). The Pioneer Elites are very sharp, but the picture seems a bit hard. I like some of the Sony sets with their DRC deinterlacer. The Sony deinterlacer leaves less noise in solid areas and less obvious breaks in hard diagonal lines that most of the other brands. The picture does not appear to be as sharp as comparably priced Mitsubishi sets and its color is tilted a bit toward green.The sleeper line to me is the higher-priced models by Hitachi. You hardly find anyone talking up the Hitachi sets, but when they are properly adjusted to tone down the very hot and saturated colors of its default settings, their sets are very good. They are also much cheaper than the premium models of other lines.
At this point in time, I would avoid the LCD (e.g., Sony Grand Wega) and DLP (e.g., Samsung) sets. Black level and shaddow detail is not yet up to snuff. I know, because I have a Mitsubishi DLP RPTV. On the other hand, these sets have inredibly good detail and no problems with burn-in.
