Re: Plasma Vs. DLP

After shopping around for nine months and reading everything I could find, I finally bought the 43" Samsung DLP and brought it home mid-July. I wanted the 50" screen, but it wouldn't fit inside the armoire. Bottom line - this set has excellent picture quality and features for a price I can live with. The picture quality on some Plasma sets looks better in the store, but costs 2-3 times more than DLP. Plus I have friends with Plasmas that already have "burned" screens after one year. I had 14 days to return my set, but I was hooked after 24 hours. Normal cable looks good (without the HDTV converter) and progressive scan DVDs are unbelievable. I had to watch several movies before I found the settings that produced the best picture for my taste. Be sure to purchase the new model (HLN437W/HLN507W serial numbers) with the Faroudja chip (some dealers are trying to sell the older models).
