Samsung HL-S5686W 56-Inch DLP HDTV
Amazing...Simply, Amazing!
First, I'd like to thank Amazon and Eagle for the super fast shipping. I know alot of people on here have given Eagle a bad wrap, but I must say that my experience has been nothing but positive. I ordered my tv on saturday, it shipped on monday, and I received it on friday. I must admit, though, I was initially worried because Amazon said that the shipment was going to take almost 4 weeks...thankfully, it didn't even take a week.    When we got it set up, the only thing that I could think was \\"WOW!!!\\" This tv is freakin' HUGE. I paired it with a Philips DVP5960 upconverting DVD player. The picture is amazing with DVD or HD CableTV. I'm using HDMI cables with both (don't spend over $100 for those...the $17 cables from newegg work just as well).    For people considering LCD/Plasma, consider this - I did:  1. Plasma or LCD are going to cost you a minimum of $2000 more for an equivalent sized unit.  2. Plasma/LCD have a display life of ~5 years with a steady degradation in image quality until failure.  3. There is no means of re-charging the plasma or refreshing the LCD - currently. So, after it's image is gone, it's gone and you've sunk several thousand into it.  4. The DLP/Rear-projection set has a constant image quality until the lamp goes out.  5. I can change a bulb in 2-3 years and be good for 2-3 more for ~$250. At that point, I would have only invested ~$1750.          *******************************UPDATE (08/25/2010)********************************  Four years into ownership and this TV still rocks. I finally had to replace the lamp for $120 and about 10min of my time. I still think this was a great purchase!!!
