The only thing about this tv that's still putting me off is the fan noise.
It's a projection tv, so the lamp must be cooled.
The reason I want to get this is that it's 50" and it's durt cheap, but still a Sony.
It's resolution is 720 (1280X720) hd ready and has all needed inputs.

I'm trying to contact the damn shop which is supposedly open on Sunday
Anybody got warnings for me? I know it offcourse will not be as good as (Plasma) sets 3 times the price. But still if enybody got any experiences.
Please let me know. I've already read lots of reports, but from a gamers perspective, how will my Saturn and PS1 look on it.
It also has VGA so my DC might look great on it connected by VGA.
This might be a good deal for others as well on this forum, who want a cheap big hd ready set. The price listed on the Sony site is retail and yuo should be able to get the previous model KDF E50 10/KDF E50 11/KDF E50 12 for half that price. Snoop around!
"why shouldn't I get this tv?" thread starring Son
Rear projection units of old suffered bad burn-in with static images on screen for long periods of time. As someone who's seen a lot of rear projection arcade monitors in his time, I've lost count of how many times they've had street fighter life-bars burned into them.
No idea what the new generation is like.
Not to mention you can't ever even think of using that beast for tate.

The fan noise wasn't really there, I hear the wind moving.
Bought the damn thing for EURO 999.
For that price I'm very pleased.
720P, 50".
Now to find a nice dvd player with component and progressive scan output. Offcourse this set does not have the same quality as a 3000 EURO set obviously, so I can't battle any other sets. It's big, it's cheap, but it's still lcd and lcd still has issues.

Jeez, thanks that makes alot of sense. Why even enter any form of analog conversion. I think they should make a cheap dvd player that you can only connect with HDMI, ommiting other analog outputs will keep the cost down. Any recomendations? I'm looking for a cheap HDMI dvd player then. The image doesn't even have to be upscaled right? I could let my tv upscale the 576 dvd to 720 right? Or is that not done with digital signals. thanks.Naiera wrote:Component? You need a DVD player with HDMI! Component is shit on a digital display. You need to keep it all digital.
