what are you expecting to get? 1/29/2008 11:13:53 PM |
Noen All American 31346 Posts user info edit post |
we have an oldschool Mitsubishi 65", similar model, 1080i too
ANd I can vouch, it looks fucking AMAZING. Hands down better than any LCD ive ever seen and comparable to most 1080p plasmas.
But, we payed 450 for it, so I dont know how much more you are expecting 1/29/2008 11:28:04 PM |

weighs too much for you to get much more than that man 1/30/2008 12:18:57 AM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
weight has zero to do with picture quality and value- It actually only weighs about 100lbs more than my plasma did-
I have seen people selling this same set today in the $1500 range for the 65" screen size- Not saying that is what I expect but certainly clarifying that $300 is a far cry off... You would have a tough time buying a 32" CRT HDTV for that price range.
This television has better picture quality both in standard definition (not pixelly and blurred) and high definition that damn near any set I have seen at CC or BB- research the tv, check reviews, and then bid-
fyi- this is not really an "old school" tv- Less than 4 years old and in absolutely "like new" condition- Not a single scratch, dent, or ding, whatsoever-
^^ I agree whole heartedly with this post- I will say though that the pricing difference between the 52" model and 65" is almost double-

I have this set as well. I paid around $2500 for it when I purchased it from Now a few years ago. I am still VERY happy with the picture quality of this set, and have no real desire to go with an LCD or plasma anytime soon. Its a GREAT set, and Mitsu is very high quality. 1/30/2008 9:24:38 AM |

i was saying its going to be harder to get what you want for it, do to its size, not everyone has a vehicle large enough to transport it, and those that dont arent usually as willing to pay "what its worth" when they also have to arrange for how to move it1/30/2008 6:41:45 PM |

720p? HDMI? 1/31/2008 8:13:32 AM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
^^^Its actually not that tough to move- reason being: The tv splits into 2 pieces- The base unit seperates from the screen so that there are 2 smaller parts to move making it much easier to use large suv or small truck
^no hdmi- has dvi, component, s-video, rca, coax- no 720 display- ONly 480 and 1080

why are you getting rid of it? 2/6/2008 2:54:47 PM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
no particular reason other than it is a little big for my entertainment room.... I sold a plasma I had with anticipation of getting an HD Projector to replace it- I didn't find the right projector i wanted and superbowl was closely approaching hence I purchased this big ass tv for the game.
It's a great set just not really what I want up here right now.... still want to get a new projector- 2/6/2008 4:15:44 PM |
BobbleHead All American 780 Posts user info edit post |
Would you consider trading a projector? Just curious- we bought a new house- and ahve the equipment from our old theater room (which included a projector)...we don't particularly need the TV- but I could definitely let my husband put it in the "man pit" as an additional TV. 2/6/2008 4:23:58 PM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
I would certainly consider a trade/partial trade... However it would need to be a full HD projector and be close in value- Let me know what u have.... 2/6/2008 4:34:03 PM |

1080i is 720p 2/11/2008 9:00:40 PM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
no it isn't... (although i appreciate the post) 1080i and 720p are very similar resolutions and identical to the regular viewer, however 1080i is considered to be slightly better as the amount of lines-
1080i = 1080 lines interlaced
720p= 720 lines progressive scan 2/11/2008 9:03:42 PM |

Basically 80% of the general population will not notice any difference between the twp formats--- 2/12/2008 3:21:54 AM |

The difference also depends on the type of picture that you are watching. 720p is generally better for sports and video games and 1080i is better for slower paced video like documentaries and sitcoms. There really is a noticable difference when comparing the two on different types of video. 2/12/2008 6:41:24 PM |
ncemt_03 All American 5453 Posts user info edit post |
anyone can google search the 2 formats and find months worth of reading and comparisons- Fact of the matter is that to your average individual there is little difference- Progressive scan is better for sports and when comparing 1080p to 1080i you will notice a big difference.
Either way 1080i has been accepted as the better of the two by manufacturers....

you said people are getting 1500 for these. ahahaha, that is just bs. and if people pay that they are stupid. you can buy a 42'' 1080p LCD for under 1000. and there is not way that this PROJECTION tv even can come close to a 1080p LCD in picture quality. projection tv is inherently shitty compared to LCD or PLASMA. decreased viewing angle... not as bright... heavier.. more heat..more power... its outdated technology. unless you get DLP, which i still think is not as good as LCD.
and greeches 1080i is NOT 720p i takes 2 "swoops" to display 1 image (draws every second line) p only takes 1 (draws every line) 2/15/2008 1:17:05 PM |

^ costco
and you know that LCD's are only produced by 2 manufactures in the world. so most likely the screen in the same in a high end one than a expensive one. 2/15/2008 2:04:44 PM |

Vizio is not considered a good quality television.....
and the fact that LCD's have 2 manufacturers really doesnt mean anything either

i know right... Moral of the story- Who the fuck is comparing a 42"LCD to a 65" RP ?
That is like comparing a a honda civic to a chevy suburban-
the screen size on this 65" completely dwarfs a little 42" not to mention that the audio quality is far better-
regardless- top offer is $600 so far-

i was just stating that there is no way that the RP is as good as a LCD. thats all. and you were saying that it looks beter. its like listening to a scummy second hand car sales man. 2/15/2008 5:47:05 PM |
