:helpme

I think you should worry about your grammar instead.

looks good to me .. it has everything i would need but I'm not a big video / audio guy.

sounds like a deal, but I'd much prefer to see the colours on a set in a store:winkwink:

yes ..then maybe i would make more money and i would be getting a 74" instead:thumbsup

i agree tottally...they carry them at costco so im gonna check it out there..Also if you the customer doenst actually play with the tv setting yourself theres a good chance you will be basing your desicion on the TV that the store wants you to buy ..the one they setup perfect while the others are always sligtley off tune :2 cents:

60" is too small

He's not talking about waist size, Fris.

vizio are ok tv's but def not top of the line. You will see a diff in pic and color quality with other brands

If you do buy one make sure to get the extended warranty

I just paid sears 500.00 to fix my HDTV today cause the inverter board broke and I didnt get the extended warranty

When shit breaks on these things it costs a fortune

I have the 50", paid $1250 for it 8 months ago. I am very happy with it. HD picture is amazing.
I've seen the 42" vizio's going super cheap though, like $450... so if it were me, I'd rather have 2 42" inchers and still save $750

It is 720 DPI, you really need to get a 1080, I just got a 65" Plasma.

But hell for that price why not!

I wish I had waited for the 1080 in the sony I got

My buddy just bought one with 1080 and the pic is amaaaazzziinnnggggg

my answer is NO
High Definition 1366 X 768 native resolution

Night and day I have a 780 dpi 50" Plasma also and the difference is amazing.

Yeah i thought vizio was a bottom line brand too..but then i talked to a friend who installs them for a living...he said vizio is the best hes seen as far as picture and as far as breakdown...he said thats because vizio doenst make anything else but plasma and lcd's:2 cents:


warranties i always get fucked on...either they dont cover my problem..or the cost to fix is like 100 bucks more than what the warranty would have cost me:1orglaugh

yeah thats where im torn...damn 1080 ...the difference is really THAT noticible?:helpme

Do Not Buy A Vizio Tv.

FYI...I have a 1080I Vizio. It's the biggest piece of shit TV I have ever owned and it's being replaced as soon as I get back from LA.

Well like I said I have a 50" LG plasma 780 dpi for the last 2 years and it's great, then I put the 65" Panasonic plasma in it place and...


HOLLY SHIT MAN,

The difference is like VHS to DVD, night and day.

Get at 1080 ... and get a DLP.
But based on my own painful experience and that of HORDES of others online, do not get a Toshiba.

Also Panasonic has a 58" 1080 Plasma for 3,500.00 it's a pretty good deal.

Looks sweet..although the picute doensnt do it justice.....nice counter topst soo:thumbsup... i would move the paris to the middle and put new york on the outside though:winkwink:

Not bad, but it only does 1080i, not 1080p. :)

I got hubby one of these for his birthday, it's awesome he loves it, and it's 1080p

Oh damn, thats big :o

more than I paid for my 60" Sony including the stand.

I got this http://www.vizio.com/products/detail.aspx?pid=35

The LCD are 1080p and great television with great blacks and great hd picture ;)

plasmas also burn in and start getting gray after a while

You here now?

Ive heard vizio's are quick to wear out. Could be bullshit, but that's what I heard.

yeah buy it

ugly! buy a Samsung...

Get a 1080p not 720 or 1080i

UpDATE... i bought the TV..

Fuck it..for the price i cant go wrong...ill keep it in the living room for a year...next holliday season ill go 1080p.for the price i just paid for this one...and move the "old one" up to my bedroom...Next year i'll also have half of you telling me that 1080p is old news and that i need to get the "NEW" 1240t model:1orglaugh

Thanks for input everyone. Ill post pics when its mounted :thumbsup

1080p Only

They're all 1080i, go with the new Vizio ones that are 1080p and you'll get the better HD picture.

I personally like rear projection LCD ... use less power.. I have a 60" Hitachi "Ultravison" and I am finding them for cheaper and cheaper every day ...

Whatever dude.

I mis-spoke earlier when I said I had a 1080I....I have a Vizio 1080 whatever the fuck it is LCD and IT'S A PIECE OF SHIT.

1080I, 1080P, 8x10, or whatever. If it says Vizio on it then it's crap.

That's what I thought. The equivalent Sony was a grand more. Now I see why and it's worth the extra.

This is the piece of shit I own.

Perhaps you got a bum set... I have a vizio and love it.

Thought that. Replaced it. Same thing.

ALL the Vizios at Costco have a significantly worse picture than any of the other brands.

I built a pretty cool built in home theater system and that TV is by far the weakest link. I've even tried swapping out the cables.

My buddy brought his Sony LCD in and there is a world of difference.

I love my Sony.

can't go wrong with that deal!

Like mp said

night and day

go look at a row of them and u will see the diff

:winkwink:i havent seen a sony 60 inch plasma hd or lcd that can be wall hung yet that could be delivered to my door for a final cost of $3k....although im sure you can provide me with a link?...also relize im getting a 60inch plasma to my doorstep for 2k...no mater how ya look at it...im good:thumbsup

As far the PICTURE of ANY TV in ANY STORE ----> The Tv's are set by the salesmen to look better/worse depending on the price and the TV they want to sell you.UNLESS YOU change the stetting on the TV you are interested in buying you really have clue on what the tv would re4ally look like with proper settings:2 cents:



i was palnning on getting the 60 on black friday...i guess i

I get an invite to the superbowl party?

Also dude u do not sound like u wanted crab legs u were satin u were stuffed plus shrimp font be mad at me man, I was hungry heh

I would not buy cheap brand tvs

Save up and buy yourself a Panasonic... you won't regret it!

now we're talking!

I have a 50" samsung plasma which I love - i wouldn't buy anything else! IMO: Plasma > DLP

Honestly, if you're not in the mood for dropping an extra couple hundred, just get the 720p. You can't even tell the difference between 1080p and 720p unless you're EXTREMELY close to the TV (pixels are bigger). But once you're sitting on the couch, you won't notice.

A 65" for 1800 is a great deal. Long live plasmas!
