Panasonic 50- Inch Plasma
Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ800U 50-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV

I have always enjoyed Panasonic products. Now I know that they also make a really impressive plasma TV. I thought my 46 Inch Samsung LCD was great until I recently bought this Panasonic 50 Inch plasma. The picture on this TV is crisp and the sound is great! It was well worth the money. Hats-off to Panasonic. I think Samsung really has some serious competition from Panasonic.

TV is Good, AntOnline is not.
I am very happy with this TV. Features are exactly what is advertised. However, I am not happy with AntOnline's delivery service. They attempted delivery using a 48 ft semi and were unable to even approach my house. The shipper called me and said they couldn't stop on my road b/c their truck was too big. I was forced to drive 50 miles to pick up the TV from their warehouse, as AntOnline did nothing to help resolve the issue. I've asked for shipping charge back and have received nothing. I don't recommend buying from them if you live in a residential area.

Very pleased customer
I'm very happy with my new Panasonic tv. It is living up to it's billing. Amazon price and service can't be beat.

THX Worth Extra $?
I'm satisfied with Amazon's price and delivery. I'm also pleased with the TV, though I was not so sure the first couple of weeks.

The problem was the picture mode. The THX setting cost a few hundred dollars, which I understood would produce an enhanced picture in HD, DVD and Blu-Ray--at least in a dark room.

For us, THX is too dark and muted and that's true for all signals, including Blu-Ray. After much experimentation, we settled on the Custom mode with slightly toned down "picture" and "sharpness" settings. It produces a vivid picture we much prefer over the relatively drab THX setting.

I'm no techie, so leave a comment if I'm missing something. As of now, I see no reason to pay for THX.
