    Serious situation here. Need help, brethren.....
    ****Please give me a bit before salooning this. For Gods sakes, its a Tues night*****

    OK Gentlemen, here's the deal.....TV went out in the great room. Not really all that surprising, as its 7.5 years old. Its a 62" Toshiba DLP. Thought it was just the bulb, but after replacing it, still nada. I have decided its toast. Time to replace and upgrade. Have multiple Samsung 240 hz LED's in the game room of varying sizes. Have no issues with these, as they all fit the bill. I have room for a 70" downstairs, and I want it to be awesome.

    I'm looking for some tips from some of you techies out there.

        The Samsung's are top notch, that's what I've got back home. Still not sure anything can match the Pioneer Kuro's in picture quality, dunno if you can find those though.

                  If you're strapped for cash opie get a Vizio

                  Really when you buy a brand name tv you're paying extra for nothing but a name

                          Thats what I'm thinking. I just saw that they sell one at Sams Club thats a 70" LED 3D. I've never had a Sharp, but how different could it be?

                            Opie, go with a 3D tv. Good heavens, there is nothing sweeter than watching the college hoops in 3D. Completely awesome.

                                                              Love my Samsung Plasma, but it does burn in a bit and you have to scroll it often so it doesn't stick. I'm not a fan of LED myself, everything just looks like a soap opera to me, it's too clear.
