That is pretty much what most videophiles say.

And what film-watchers say about LCD in general. You never know though, he may have exacerbated the less-desirable effects by having some of the "enhancement" modes on (they usually sound good by the manual). For the intended market and use of LCDs, the 120Hz does offer some benefits though, depends what you're watching.

I thought maybe we were nuts. I have to admit our LCD is just a 19" at the bar, so it's not a good comparison. And I'll admit that overall, "walking through the mall" past the Sony store, etc, I've never really been too impressed with LCD. I've always found them somewhat cartoon-like. That said, I'd still love to have one in our sunroom instead of the clumsy CRT just because of size, etc.

  Replaced a "perfectly good" CRT-based display with a plasma. OK OK, I admit the plasma is pretty good, can't really find any visual fault to it though I have tried. Not quite as easy on the eyes as CRT in some way I can't exactly say. Probably just because of so many decades of CRT conditioning...
  
  For a sunroom you'd definitely need LCD. Unless you only watch in the sunroom at night... I mostly watch movies, and only in the evening, so my display technology choice was simple.

    Southern exposure, lots of windows, no shade trees within window areas. Thanks for the tip! :)
