SONY KDF70XBR950 70-Inch LCD Projection TV
Still the best I've seen at this size
I have had this TV for two years now.  No buyer's remorse what-so-ever.  I still have not seen a better TV at this size, and I have looked at DLP, LCD-RP, LCD-directview, plasma, CRT, and also front projection.  Five of my friends have gone out and bought this TV (or the 60-inch version) after seeing it in action at my house.  I cannot say enough about how stunning the picture quality is. <br /> <br />The 60-inch version of this TV now uses LCoS instead of LCD, and I think it has higher resolution, so I may wish to upgrade if they ever come out with the 70-incher in LCoS. <br /> <br />I have heard two complaints about this TV in the HD forums.  One of which is completely bogus.  The other may be a concern. <br /> <br />1)  The big sheet of plexiglass in front of the screen causes too much glare.  This is the bogus complaint.  If they had put a lenticular screen in front to cut down on glare, you would lose both brightness and viewing angle.  Give me the ultra-bright, super-sharp, wide-angle-viewable screen any day and I'll do whatever else can be done to cut down on the glare. <br /> <br />2)  The contrast drops off sharply at dark grey.  Yes, LCDs have contrast problems below a certain brightness level.  You will definitely see a sharp drop off in detail in darker areas of the screen when watching this TV.  It is inherent to LCD.  No way around it.  In my opinion, there are at least as many drawbacks to the other technologies (DLP, Plasma, CRT). <br /> <br />Go get one of these before they are all gone! <br />
