Sorry for not making myself clear, but you were saying broadcasters use Sony in their home. Here in the United States, the WEGA series is about the highest line that Sony offers, and I am referring to residential viewing, not professional editing monitors. There is a signifigant difference (I do use a Sony Trinitron monitor, but for extremely high resolution graphics. I would never want to watch DVDs or Television broadcasts on it). There is obviously a signifigant difference between home viewing of NTSC images and high resolution graphics. It being two different worlds. I know a lot of people who own the high end Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, etc televisions which are sold in the United States market, and though quite satisfied with the image quality, they are usually blown away by the picture quality of my Loewe. I guess it's a matter of taste though.

You're probably right about professional equipment. I myself have never been in a TV studio. I have compared the picture difference between a Sony wega xbr and the Loewe planus using my Canon GL-1 (Perhaps aka XM-1 in UK), using the same S-video cable, and was actually surprised by the image quality difference. As far as the Aconda goes, I haven't done comparisons between that and the xbr, but I would bet that there's a similar difference. Anyway, I'm sure not going to put your professional experiences into question. Nor the quality of the equipment you guys use. Also, a pro can use his experience to point certain aspects of a picture and deem them correct or more true when doing comparisons, but I know that the planus looks more natural than the xbr. I would love to see your TV so I could expand my horizons, that's what makes being a home theater buff fun. EG: I saw a Seleco projector hooked to a Faroujda line doubler and was amazed by the image quality on a 100" screen. Of course, it cost $26k altogether.
I'm suprised that this set isn't available in the US as its a multistandard. Would strongly advise using RGB input or component if available, this makes a huge difference to picture quality, gets rid of the "shimmering" that is so much of problem with analogue systems. In reply to the previous poster to you, just to clarify, when I was talking about the price of a monitor, it was a broadcast monitor, not a computer based one.Roland
