sent mits dlp back,after deciding pic quality was not there,and got the KDF-60XS955 60" instead. in the showroom,the KDF-60XS955 60" looked crisper and brighter,but salesdude pushed the mits dlp.after one week it is now sent back,and the sony looks like a keeper. pic quality is much better,and see no sde or other problems people are talking about. better quality all around. in std deff-pic is much better than mits,and in hd looks like imax. will look at dlp on next set purchase. i believe dlp needs refining,but for now sony KDF-60XS955 60" is here to stay.

How much did the kdf cost? I was thinking about buying the exact same model but the sales person kept doing the same thing to me. He thought I should buy one of his many mitsubishi models instead of the sony.

Did you buy it online or at a store? All the stores around here sell the tv for no less than $4100. Looked online at some stores and saw it for $2800.

I purchased it online through shopsunshine in NY. No problems what so ever and god, this is a great tv as I've spent the last several days just watching it. I'm going to get the DVD for calibration and do it myself. Today, I'm getting the rest of speaker system delivered (orb audio) and tonight it's kickin the wife out of the house and going to enjoy playing with my new toy even more.
Just so everyone knows my set-up is..

I use my psychic powers to change channels, your mileage may vary.
I highly recommend the Logitech Harmony series. It is the easiest to program because you do it via the internet and a USB connection. Just enter your component info. and download the programming. They even have a model (688) that is specifically for TiVo/DVR users.

How did the tv speakers sound? It'll be a minute before I save enough money for a 7.1 surround system.
