I am in the market for a new HD rear projection tv. I have a 47" samsung widescreen but it only produces 1080i and no HDMI input. I have been shopping around and am pretty much sold on the Sony Grand Wega HD rear projection 50" i can get for $1,800. The picture is beautiful, and not just on the demo disc set-up they have running on it either. Anyway, just looking for some input from others on how you think this tv will perform. Thanks
well, sony always makes a good TV, so i see no reason not to get it. but if you wanna save some cash, you can find a cheaper one with no serious problems. guy at work got a 52" panasonic LCD projection for $700 from a great sale at circuit city.Â
i have the 50' sony grand wega and it runs at 1080i and it looks beautiful..everyone says that 1080i is like 1080p but it lags and slows down wen there is fast movement but they are full of ****! there is nothing wrong with it i played it on 1080p and on my 1080i tv and there is no difference at all...all beautifully amazing picture and framerate smoothness, even on online no lag or slowdown at all...
its not everyone saying it lags, it is a fact, half the lines move then the other half move, thats interlaced. you might not see it, you might not be that perceptive, but it is in fact there. interlaced produces a jagged image. need proof? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced oh mighty wikipedia, work your information spreading magic, and reduce ignorance everywhere
I have the 55" model and it's great. I've had it since mid November and I've had no complaints at all. HD looks great with my 360 and PS3. I do wish it had more HDMI and rear component inputs for future systems though.

www.monoprice.com sells a 2 way and 4 way HDMI splitter if you find your needing more outputs, well priced too.
If you're talking aboot the 50" $ony SXRD then yes, make the purchase. There is actually a decent amount of those that have problems. ( not talking out of my ass, I work at western distribution center for Best Buy Canada which is both BB and Future Shop ) Actually, lots of those sets come back to the service department at my work, however that doesn't really mean anything as we service all Best Buy's and Future Shop's in western Canada so it may seem like lot's but on that large a scale whatever. If you bring it home and there's no problems you'll be fine, just get an extended warranty is my suggestion. Actually a really nice picture and does 1080p so you're set with that and a PS3.
