If you have that much money, why not buy a movie theatre and put it in your back yard?

One thing I like of the SXRDs is that no matter how close you put yourself to the image you don't see a screen door effect, they are perfectly smooth. (You know I like a big, close, wide image, like in movie theaters)

Hasn't the (5k) cheaper than the Ruby front projector come out too? The Pearl if I'm not mistaken?

Think again, I work in a big electronics store.. we have all the big name tvs. The
Sony xbr-sxrd's are nice but you can still get the screen door effect from them. (save your money and get the reg sxrd because it has the same picture much cheaper...) 60" sxrd priced at $2400 right now. 60" xbr-sxrd priced at $3400

LCDs.. are nice but not worth the money yet.
Plasmas...Great color, super contrast ratio, but if you have windows you are going to deal with alot of glare. I am tired of hearing people say... ah plasmas burn. Turn your contrast ratio down while you break in the tv. The truth is most gamers will never burn their screens. Most plasmas have screen burn protection like whitewash to combat it. And unless you leave the tv on all the time and never play something else it will probably never effect you. Example: we have a bose demo playing on a plasma at our store that is on for nearly 12 hours/day. It plays the same crap over and over and over 3months and counting, no burns.
Rear projection (microprojectors) dlp/lcd/lcos... great value, avail in 1080p (exept for the lcd RP's). Color wheel vs lcos, Not a big difference. Just buy one of the big 3, sony/samsung/mitsubishi, and get an extended warranty to be safe.

I own two 50" rear projections. A 4yr old samsung dlp 720p, and a panasonic 1080p. I am dying for a bigger one now.
My next tv either the Sxrd 60 (not the xbr-sxrd cause its overpriced, the picture is the same as the sxrd, and the speakers look gay on the xbr anyways), the Samsung 67 1080 dlp, or the Mitsu 65 1080p. I'm still deciding. I see these tvs every day, but if you talk to any salesperson they will all have different favorites.
MY OPINION if you want a kick ass big screen and money isnt an issue, buy the Mitsubishi 65" diamond series.
Denon is nice but check into Sunfire.
ps. no more snivlin. if you like plasma, my top 3 plasmas 1.pioneer(elite or not, they both kick ass),2.samsung,3.hitachi

pss. Kansas city area buy it from me. Nebraska Furniture Mart, ask for Matt
