Rear Projection Viewing Angles?

[delux247]

Hey all,

While I admit to being a little bit biased against rear projectors in the past due to a couple less than great experiences, I'm considering picking up a clearance Sony KDS-60A3000. However, would there be any viewing angle issues having it elevated approx. 3 feet on my entertainment center? Would there be any viewing angle issues at all? In the past, my father owned a diamond series Mitsu and a much, much older rear projection Sony and they both had TERRIBLE viewing angles from the side. Like unless you were looking at it DEAD ON, it looked like complete crap. But, much like plasma burn-in, I was wondering if this was a thing of the past. Thanks for any input, I know I've been asking a lot of questions lately, so thanks for being patient with me.
