3. No, haven't had it calibrated but I think I have tweaked my settings pretty good so far. Eventually I might get it professionally calibrated though.

My HD programming looks awesome, the SD content looks pretty good too. Believe it or not, I haven't even played a regular DVD on it yet.

My system:

60A3000
Scientific Atlantic 8240HDC cable box
PS3
Onkyo 805
Polk Audio RM6750 (looking to replace very soon)

I have all the components hooked up HDMI using 1.3a cables into the receiver then out to the tv.

My father has a 60XBR2 and I think my picture looks better as does he. My brother has the Mitsubishi 65733 and he thinks my tv looks better as well. He's in colorado so I haven't seen his but he's seen mine.

One thing that is fantastic is the onscreen menu for the tv, it's just like the Ps3 if you have one.

The viewing angles are very good as well.

By the way, if you buy this tv go to TechDepot at: http://www.techdepot.com/pro/product...0&HKeyword=KDS

And have Best Buy or another company match the price. It's $2113 there. I did this and they matched it because it's OfficeDepot and all Office Depot stores allow you to order from the Tech site in their store. So it's a local company. Best Buy matched it as Office Depot and it saved me nearly $600 as they had them for $2699

thanks for all that input. i may not have the money to upgrade to the tv i really want which is a 60" pioneer elite kuro ($7500) which is too steep for me now. but i was checking this model out at BB the other day and it looked pretty good. also that is a great price you got it for. so best buy had no problem matching the price for you? no attitude or nothing?
