Best TV I've ever seen!
|
I purchased the Panasonic TH-50PZ750U Plasma television after doing exhaustive research using Consumer Reports, CNET, Amazon.com reviews, etc., and by staring at and comparing TV's at Best Buy, Sears, Tiger Direct, Fry's, etc. This is by far the best picture I have ever seen on any TV. I don't care what anyone says, plasma beats LCD by a mile. Everyone who has seen my new TV wants one for themselves. Usually, the first comment uttered is about what an amazing picture it has.
I have Dish Network as my satellite provider and before ordering their HD package I wanted to see how well standard definition looked on my new TV. Let me tell you, the picture was so amazing I seriously considered not ordering the high def package because I figured what's the point. The picture was already beautiful; super crisp and clear with extremely deep blacks, and no trailing pixels like you see on the LCD's when there is a lot of movement on the screen. However, I figured with high def it can only get better so I went ahead and ordered the Dish Network package. The installers used one component cable and one RCA cable to connect the DVR receiver to my TV and much to my disappointment, the picture actually looked worse. The tech told me they were out of HDMI cables but if I replace the cables he gave me with an HDMI cable the picture would be much better. Although I think Dish is responsible for providing the correct cables, I was desperate to improve the high def resolution, so I ran out and picked up an HDMI cable. Once I replaced the cables with the HDMI cable I was floored by how amazing the picture looked. The HD picture blew away the already amazing standard def picture, which I did not think was even possible.
The HD picture is so crisp and clear that it's like looking through a window. I watched Man vs. Wild and it seemed like I was actually riding along side Bear on his make shift raft.
This TV will not disappoint! It has 3 HDMI inputs, one in the front and two in the back. The TH-50PZ700U only has 2 HDMI inputs, which is why I chose the TH-50PZ750U model. It also has convenient handholds in the back panel that make it easy for two people to carry. (It's fairly heavy) I was able to program the TV remote to control my satellite DVR receiver and my DVD player. I attached my Nintendo Wii and the graphics look very good although the Wii's graphics aren't anywhere near as good as a PS3 or an Xbox. My standard DVD player does not upconvert, however all of my DVD's look absolutely amazing. A Blue Ray player isn't even necessary, although it has made its way onto my Christmas wish list.
I purchased the TV from Electronics Expo through Amazon. I received the TV exactly one week after I ordered it. It was shipped via EGL. (Eagle) The shipper called me one day prior to delivery to set up a drop off time. They brought the TV into my home and helped me lift off the top of the box to verify that there was no damage. The TV arrived in perfect condition and works flawlessly.
I did not wall mount the TV as I have a nice entertainment center so I used the stand that comes with the TV. The stand assembly only takes about two minutes. (Just a couple screws and it's done) There are two metal shafts that fit into holes in the bottom of the TV and then two screws are ran into each shaft to connect the base to the TV. It's very well balanced and heavy so there should be very little concern for the TV ever tipping unless you live in an earthquake zone. (They include straps to connect it to the wall in case you do live in an earthquake zone.)
One final thought, the serial number is required to register your TV, so before setting it up in a dark area or in an entertainment center, it might be wise to find it and write it down first. There is a very small black sticker on the right hand side of the TV with the serial number on it. If you purchase this model I'm sure you will be very pleased with your wise decision.
