    Mike,
    I started messing around with the settings on the new Sammy DLP that I bought it has improved a few of the issues that I was having with the TV. I see what you are saying that DLP's can really pump out a nice picture if calibrated correctly. I would call what I did adjusting since I don't know jack about calibration, but the more I play around with these settings in the menu the better it looks. The real deal is in the Service Menu which I'm not going to mess with. When I can get some money together, I'll end up calling that guy.

        Nice set for a grand, not going to be the price at all.

          I think if you were ok w/ paying around $1700, you'd be crazy not to pay $1000. That's a great deal. I haven't seen it in person though, so just going on your assessment of it, seems like you can't go wrong.

            Looks like a good TV for the price. I would look around to see reviews on this set and see if it meets your needs at that price of $1K.

              I saw the TV first hand twice and was blown away at the picture and it just was a beautiful set, I just don't know much about Panasonic, are they a good company for TV's?

                Yes, their plasmas are probably the best on the market.

                        I may have, but what he should do also is that CC has 18 pages worth of customer reviews. This TV is getting some good reviews.

                            Customer ratings are better than the Sammy 5086, but tied at 4.4 with the Sammy 5087W. It's up to you man, if the image looks much better than what you have seen go for it. The price can't be beat and it can allow you to get that stand you've been wanting also without going over budget.
