Go big or go home… I'm sure someone is going to sue me for stealing that. It seems that Mitsubishi has taken this motto to heart with its 73" WD-73735 rear projection DLP display. Big? Yeah. Affordable? Compared to flat panels - oh heck yeah. But how does it look? Very... not bad. You'll probably want to read on to see what I mean by that.

Vizio VF551XVT LED LCD Television Review [0.21] by clint,March 19, 2010 10:00

I'm a big fan of LED TVs when they are done right – and Vizio seems to really be getting the hang of this new technology. Their latest heavy hitter, the VF551XVT, has a very consistent brightness uniformity – something that is lacking in many of the new LCD-backlit displays. It also reproduces blacks with an uncanny darkness that all but mimics the drool-inspiring qualities of much-heralded plasma displays. For just over $2000, this television is well above average in its value and something that will bring years of quality enjoyment to many homes.

Optoma PD50A Plasma TV Review [0.21] by clint,November 16, 2005 20:00

We happened to get our hands on one of the least expensive 50-inch plasma televisions around. What we've found is that these models lack the customization, and often color accuracy, of more expensive models, but compensate by bringing large, flat-screen technology to consumers at an affordable price. The key is knowing their strengths and weaknesses and using them properly to their best advantage.

Cables To Go TrueLink WirelessHD Kit Preview [0.21] by tom,May 09, 2010 18:00

The Cables To Go TrueLink WirelessHD kit is plug and play with no setup or software required. It is HDMI 1.3 compatible and supports true 1080p video and 7.1 audio. There are power buttons on both the transmitter and the receiver so that if you decide to conserve power you can. There is an auto power function that automatically turns off the attached component when the transmitter is turned off. On each device there is a single HDMI connection. While we wish there would be more, it seems to be the standard with this first generation devices. In the box you get not only the receiver and transmitter but also a pair of 1.2 meter HDMI cables, a remote, and a wall bracket for the receiver. While $500 may give some sticker shock, it is actually pretty competitive in this market for this type of solution.
