Sammy HLT5076s DLP or Sony KDS50a2020 SXRD?

[BTBuck1]

Ok, so recently my samsung DLP model HLS5087 developed this white blob in the middle of the screen, only apparent on an all black screen. I had a couple techs out to look at it, they either couldn't or wouldn't diagnose it so I called BB customer care and got a return authorization.

So I figured, I would just go with the new model, HLT5076s. It's a great looking set. With an awesome picture and the blob is gone & the geometry is alot better than my HLS, but it still does have a slight bow inward at the bottom. and the right side of the screen kinda smiles it bows upward.
It is hardly noticable unless you have a graph on screen on the menubar.

So here is my dilema.
I like the KDS50a2020 it seems to have solid reviews all the way around, but I would be giving up a few things in the process of exchanging.

Pros of the Samsung HLT5076s DLP:

1) The samsung is about $50 cheaper at the cost I am getting.

2) 3 HDMI rather than 2 (but I already have a switcher and am using that anyways)

3) 120hz set vs. 60hz on the Sony.

4) the Samsung has better blacks.

5) I think the samsung set looks better (cabinet design) Slimmer

6) I like samsungs menu system, seems more high tech.

7) 1080p over component, & VGA (i dont use them now, but I may someday)






Now here are the reasons I like the Sony KDS50a2020:

1) Better build quality, Cabinet is sturdier

2)Virtually no geometry issues.

3) A close picture quality to the samsung (as close as I have seen)

4)Brand I trust for longevity.

5) Able to skip inputs

6) Better De-interlacing (almost indistinguishable to native 1080p)

7) 2.5ms response time vs, 16ms on samsung.

8) No colorwheel=no moving parts...potential longevity.

So vote, tell me what you think. Right now I am leaning toward keeping the DLP.
But I want to see what you guys think...

Thanks!
