The lamp life for DLP (original helium? bulbs) is directly linked the the amount of time the TV is on, lamp cooling and cleanlyness. My DLP did have an issue with the light engine early on but that was because the TV was dropped by the delivery people. It was repaired under warranty and has been running...

I have both a ps3 and hd-dvd player hooked up to her and I still do not see 1080p/i picture quality. I know I have to play...

I am looking at the specifications and owners manual for your particular set and I can not seem to locate anything that claims this DLP has a refresh rate of 120 Hz.

The TV could then be truned back on and not turn off. The trouble lights were flashing...

I have over 1 year of viewing time on my set 1. I notice no blurring on my TV while watching standard definition programs. I've even got...

I'm getting ready to order a TV through Crutchfield and have some questions that I haven't been able to answer for myself through research. 1. I have read several reviews that suggest that while watching sports you get a blurred effect on these TV's 2. Non HD TV picture and non Blue Ray dvd viewing is...

I also checked the Crutchfield technical notes on this model and do not show any mention of the issue you are experiencing. If you purchased your television from Crutchfield, please give our tech support a call. You can locate their number on the back of your invoice. However if you purchased your TV...

I just received this set today along with its free stand. I've never ordered anything this size online but the delivery went well. So far, the PQ is excellent even connected to a non-HDTV Directv set (HDDVR install is scheduled for Monday morning). I purchased a Terk HDTV amped antenna to take advantage...
