Excellent TV. Beautiful color, easy to set up and great features. This TV will be used in our Natural History Museum and will showcase various Hubble Space Telescope images among others. It has brilliant, saturated colors and is a perfect attention getter. No complaints or problems to report.

Couldn't ask for more othen that the one speaker

I have owned this t.v. for just about a year.
I bought it the day after Christams last year when my 65" died.
I knew I wasn't going smaller and I needed to buy local cause I needed it next day which was Saturday.
I paid a little more for local, but they gave me a free DVI to HDMI cable and HDMI cables and free delivery.
And they took out my old 65" for free.

On to the t.v.

This has been a great DLP for me. I am an avid t.v. and movie watcher. I would say honestly at least 8-10 hours a day.
I run a media center PC - HDMI, DirecTV HD-DVR - HDMI, Wii - Component - X-box 360, PS3, Upconverting DVD player all through an HDMI switch and everything works great.
Picture is awesome on HD sources, front HDMI works great with my Creative Vado-HD.
Took a little bit to get all the connections, labels, and settings the way I wanted but I haven't changed anything in a year.
I run it in power saving mode on startup but really it takes less than 20 seconds to get going.
I also keep the screen set at low as opposed to bright since I know I watch a lot of t.v.
I just ordered a replacement lamp for $100 from Mitsubishi, don't order one anywhere else or you are paying too much.

My old one hasn't died yet, but I know it should be coming soon with the amount I watch.
I have only had one problem since I got it and that was about a month after buying it.
It wouldn't turn on and kept shutting off with a red flashing code.
They were going to replace it for me but it would take a week and I would have to have a little 42" in the mean time... no way.
Salesman who sold it to me lives directly across the steet and agreed to look at it that night.
Took off the back panel and found the cord for the cooling fan on the lamp was strung really tight at the factory. (after I found online that the flashing code was a lamp problem, he knew where to check.)
He released one of the clips to release tension and I have been running great for the past 11 months.
I do have a slight sound issue sometimes in the right speaker, almost sounds blown but for the most part I have tuned it out.
When watching a movie etc I use surround sound.

Pros -
Screen size
Picture quality
Weight - my old 65" Toshiba weighed 468 pounds lol
Inputs
Looks

Cons -
Speakers
Really nothing else for me

I do have the matching stand for it and it puts the t.v.at the perfect height and the t.v. looks awesome on it.

Great TV Very Big

I am jealous of anyone who got the 82" but I am happy with my 73". It provides a bright picture and the HD looks very well. Have had not problems with the TV yet and the remote I use is the Harmony one which syncs with this tv without issue. I would recommend this to someone looking for a large tv that wants to have connection to all media.
