Projection TV: Does anyone know anything about this company and model?

I just purchased one and like it. Have not seen a rainbow effect. Check out AVS forums (2011 Mitsubishi owners thread) for in depth discussions on the tvs. So far, I am enjoying it.

Thanks drhey19, this is very helpful. I am thinking of buying a second unit and I thought they booth looked like the same thing. (I was worried because the DTVPal disappeared from the market for a long time.)

Unfortunately I did not review the projector you asked about but I can tell you about the ViewSonic PJD5533W WXGA. I bought the View Sonic for showing movies outdoors and I couldn't write in words how this performed more than I ever thought possible. I have (4) TV's indoors from 70" plasma's, LCD's and this projector shows as well as any TV I currently own. If not for viewing projectors in highly lighted areas I would NEVER purchase anything except for projection. I currently project onto 122" screen with an inexpensive bluray player and the picture is awesome. This projector would easily project onto a sceen much larger with no issues. Again I don't know anything about the other projector but the View Sonic is amazing. I could only imagine what a $2,000 projector could do.

don't know the brand name. I installed the unit in my TV set and it works just fine. Don't recall the date of installation-it was months ago. Installation pretty easy.

Do you have your manual for this unit? If not, you can find it by searching for just the number pt43LC14. I pulled up the manual on the internet, it is a PDF file so just right click the file that says Multimedia Projection Display Operating Instructions and download it to your computer. Here is the link: service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/PT43LC14.PDF. and according to your manual you have only two options with a yellow blinking light: Power Indicator Flashes orange 1 time every 5 seconds. Power shuts off. The internal cooling fan is not working. Contact service center. Flashes orange 2 times every 5 seconds. Power shuts off. The Lamp Cover is unsecured. Securely attach Lamp Cover. If you have a bad bulb it will flash red. If the bulb is totally burned out, like mine recently was, the TV will just flash green then red.

Could it be, that they no longer have the black TV because of the lighting that customers where complaining about, and perhaps, the problem was fixed by replacing it with Titanuim(the frame or whatever you call it)? for me, Buying a 65 inch TV is becoming an unpleasant career project, I can't beleive that Samsung released this TV without perfecting it, and exposed themselves to criticism, I am beginning to loose faith in them, they should come out and explain to the public about what's going on with that model tv instead of hiding and letting us guess.

"Plasma tvs are a big no no for videogames" -- is that from personal experience with this model, or did you just read that somewhere?

I cannot understand why Amazon itself does not sell this projector. They do sell the "competition" (for example, the Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 8500 UB LCD Projector (V11H337020) [although not at the present time due to some difficulties] and the Epson Powerlite V11H336120 Home Cinema 8100 1080p LCD Home Theater Projector); why not this Panasonic too? If they sold it, Panasonic would sell many more of these projectors as Amazon has demonstrated that it is a trustworthy and consumer-friendly company. That said, if anyone wants one, they could hardly find a better dealer than Visual Apex, from whom I bought mine. They are as good a company as Amazon - and, as you know, that's saying something!

No, it is not -&gt; http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/29PFL4908_F7/4000-series-led-lcd-tv/specifications However, that's not the reason I wouldn't buy it. I think I've posted a review here. I got mine at Walmart initially, but I was very dissatisfied in spite of the amazingly low price. There are better quality smart TVs/monitors for the money in my humble opinion.

I ordered a 4071f from them, and it appeared to be a brand new tv. It was in very good shape. I decided it was too small for my living room, but it was in really good condition. That has been my experience.

These TV's are WAY overpriced by this seller @ 1000 clams. The same people had it for under 600 a month or 2 ago. It wouldn't suprise me that they are discontinued from Visio. They haven't had any on their website available for quite some time. (at $659) Usually means something is up. Look around or buy something else from someone else !! I'm not a corporate ceo with millions, I'm in the 99% . . . . I need reasonable pricing in order to spend hard earned cash.

According to what Philips told me, they no longer made this model as of a year or so ago. I had audio issues that were "unusual" according to the tech. He was local, and I trusted him. However, he couldn't fix the issue, and Philips sent me a replacement. It was "reconditioned," and soon developed the same "rare" problem. They finally replaced it with a new one, but it was a different model (46") because they told me they no longer made the 47". It was a shame, I liked the 47" features (mainly the input selections and the digital audio out). The 46" is a good TV and I've been happy with it (no problems), and I DO like Philips, but this model has been put out to pasture.

When I got one, I also looked far and wide to find out what type of panel it had. Couldn't find anything, but having used it, I think it's a an IPS. The thing has better viewing angles than my mVA panel monitor and the blacks are deeper as well. Actually, I wouldn't worry about the picture quality of this thing at all. And if by some chance you end up with an inferior model, you can always return TVs to Amazon with free return shipping and no restocking fee.

Go to CNET and look this tv up. People have posted calibration settings on there. My recommendation at this point would be to return this tv immediately! I have had the pn64e8000 for nearly two years now and it just died yesterday. I have found out recently that these tv's were shipped by Samsung with bad panels. I am not the only one this has happened to and some folks are trying to organize a class action lawsuit over this issue. I have had two Samsung tv's and they both let me down. Their customer service sucks and they will give you the runaround. I just ordered a Sharp aquos Lc70sq15u which is about the same price i paid for the pn64e8000 and is twice the tv.

I have heard that projection TVs are best for the 3D effect. Do you know if it's true? The price of this one is amazing and I know there is a bulb that needs replaced after like 5 or 6,000 hours, but if you only use it for an occasional 3D movie or game, it should last quite a while.

You are the quality control for all the manufacturers..People are very price sensitive and want to perpetually buy products for the same or less than they cost 5 years ago. Companies that made top drawer products (like the Pioneer Plasmas) were forced out by the Chinese garbage... I still have a 20 year old Sony tube XBR that I am hesitating to replace with a HDTV because of the concerns raised by the poster. A really big problem is that very few of the sets can be repaired and the goons they send to guess at the repairs could be fortune tellers in a prior life. They either tell you it is not a problem or to live with it. I actually had a repair person tell me he couldn't repair the remote control receiver in a high end receiver (part no longer available) which was still under an expensive extended warranty. He said tough luck...
