When it comes to TV in the living room, bigger is always better so when it came time to replace our 61 "Samsung DLP I had no idea what would be my next TV, other than what was going to be bigger and sure, I wanted to allow. Mitsubishi WD-73737 was the winner and for this reason:

- Size - good, 73 "is larger than 61", right? As far as I know there are many LCD or plasma TVs of this size, at least not anything I can do what. Our living room is rathergreat - really most of our first floor (open architecture), so you better have a big screen. Mitsubishi makes a 82 "model, but I had to take into consideration ...
- Rate - we have a clear winner. Whether it is for price / size, DLP, by far the least expensive option.
- Include energy efficiency - according to my research, the WD-73 737 burns about 265W when 'on' (this is the 180W lamp). In comparison, requires a 70 "LCD to use 540-630W.
- Ability 3D - is amore potential. Mitsubishi does not guarantee that your TV is with the standard 3D is in development, but compliant ... could.

Of course, not everything is perfect so here are the potential "negative":

- Lamp - when it comes to 'come cost of ownership, we must factor DLP's lamp. The manual Mitsubishi expects its lamp can last for about a year, but our Samsung was still good after two years so with the original lamp, we'll see. A replacement for this modeldirectly from Mitsubishi is $ 99 and I will get a free under the warranty, if the original needs to be replaced before a year. Given the large energy savings compared to LCD TVs, I'm not too much to replace it under the lamp occasionally worried.
- BULK - this sentence is more than 90 pounds. heavy and more than 12 "at its thickest. Definitely not hang on a wall. ... So
- Stand - you have one. We use those with the old 61 "and all were fine, but if you have notshould return a few hundred dollars.
- The screen - nothing wrong with it, but when compared with our old Samsung, which is a bit 'more reflective. Not so, to the point that annoying at night when the lights are on in the room, but sometimes it is remarkable.

Since we already had a state does not want to hang on a "73 TV on the wall and the need to replace the lamp WAS offset by his energy, we go for the WD-73737, without hesitation, and weWe are happy to have done.


Our Setup

A TV of this size would normally be used in a home theater, and it turns out, so we use. We have a satellite box, PS3, dedicated Blu-ray player, a 7.1 channel surround receiver and a Harmony remote 900. The TV has inputs including 3 HDMI, but in our case, the development began in the speaker jack, connect the HDMI cable to a TV and HDMI connections, I have the Harmony 900be configured to handle the TV was, we were watching TV in 5 minutes out of the box.

Later own, we have some development, but it turned out, had little to adjust. We made sure that the frame rate was set at 120 fps, the rest are the recommended settings from the website Tweak TV and does not change much, what they recommended. It ended with:

Picture mode: Natural
Color Temperature: Low
Aspect Ratio:Standard
Contrast: 55
Brightness: 36
Color: 31
Hue: 31
Sharpness: 31
Deep Field Imager: Off
Super Resolution: Off
Sharp Edge: Off
Video Noise: Off

The end result is closer to the picture-prefect, as they come.

I have nothing to say about the sound - can simulate "surround sound" with its own speakers - why not use them. Same when it comes to tuning of channels or the creation of "activities". These are complete treatmentSatellite receiver and the Harmony remote, but all functions are available. Same when it comes to remote control, which is fairly small - a good thing - but something can get used to, when it comes to key size (small) and their arrangement.


WARRANTY

An object of this size, this is an important concern, then, is what counts:

- The screen is covered only for 30 (thirty) days.
- Quality assurance of image means that Mitsubishi will correct it ifThey receive less than 99.99% of the pixels on the right. In other words, it should at least 9,999 to 10,000 pixels on the right. On a screen of two million pixels, this means that if you have up to 199 pixels bathroom, Mitsubishi is not obligated to repair televisions.
- Everything else is covered for one year.
- The lamp will be replaced free if they need replacing within the first year.
- Service is provided "in house" If within the coverage of an authorized Mitsubishi. IfAre not liable for the TV, so you better make sure you are in a service area of Mitsubishi.


My Rating

This TV delivers exactly what I wanted and expected: a big, bright, sharp, thanks to 120 fps display very little on fast moving objects blur. Replace the disadvantages: the need for the lamp, the unorthodox layout of the remote control of other functions are either free or very important in my case a counterweight. Not allcould with a TV that is not completely flat, or that life needs an upgrade, but if the main concerns of quality, price, size and power consumption, this TV is hard to beat.

I give the WD-73 737 5 stars, and because I am very satisfied.

Unbelievable.

The picture on this TV simply BLOWS AWAY my 2 1080p LCD's!

And the price is simply unbeatable.

My kids played XBOX 360 on it this AM & are now "zombie like" in front of a movie.

We don't even have this hooked up / calibrated all the way yet, but colors / sharpness are simply amazing!

And the surround sound is actually REALLY good (I have Bose speakers I plan to hook up later...)

Remote on this TV is definitely terrible (esp. at first) - although once you actually READ THE MANUAL & test out the buttons, there are definitely a bunch of useful features...

USB input is VERY nice - have already hooked it up to my PC & also run a few slide shows of my digital pictures - AWESOME!

Yes, there are issues with the lamp (which will eventually burn out) - but Mitsubishi made this a pretty simple cartridge to slip in & out. So, either buy a spare bulb, or purchase an extended warranty (I got 4 yrs. for which covers up to 00).

TV is inching ever closer to 00 & I would look for free shipping...

I dare you to find any other comparable technology, size for that price.

And since ours will mostly be used by kids, why pay more?

I mean, a new bulb is like getting a new TV for several more years.

And once they actually get 3D going, there's a slot for converter box & glasses (these sets use DLP, which is what the theaters use, but current standard is checkerboard, so you'll need to spend approx. 0 more for 3D - again, check prices for integrated 3D & tell me you're willing to spend for THAT!)

I'm also assuming my satellite provider, DirecTV, will eventually come out with a 3D offering & I've heard of no issues with current BluRay's. Again, I'll wait, knowing I have a 3D ready TV.

Only thing that's better is true LED - which, if this baby was part of my "adults only" home theater, bonus room, "Cave Man" - I can see

However, under the "Cave Kids" ... in the ... But now my baby's smile, your ears!

It's huge.

I had purchased a 56" Panny plasma last year. It has an awesome picture and is a fabulous TV. However, with the sound system I have going down there (classic KEF Reference all the way around plus the legendary Alon isobaric sub, driven by the top Marantz HDMI receiver) I found the picture from the plasma was still a little SMALL for the sound!

This I hadn't anticipated.

56" was the hugest screen I'd ever bought. Well, I blew the plasma out the door when the new Mitsu rear-projection DLP units with 3-D came out, and I'm glad I did.

It was between this and a projector. My brother built a front projector system in his basement, and honestly it's disappointing. You have to have the room totally dark, and even then the picture isn't very bright.

This DLP set, by contrast, is far brighter, and you can watch it during the day or with the lights on. It is HUGE, which really complements the sound system. It's really not right to have top-shelf sound without a theater-worthy screen, and 56" is just on the small end of that, unless your room is tiny.

Once I had the color balance tweaked to the calibration disc's satisfaction, I had great things going on. The Panny had great color out of the box, but the factory settings on the Mitsu DLP units are mushy and a bit off. So if you do buy this set, by all means make sure you do a full calibration with a good calibration dvd/blu-ray disc. The before/after difference is quite striking even if you're not a real "video geek." The discs themselves are amazingly cheap, and if you're spending this much on a TV there's really no excuse not to set it up right. I believe many negative reviewers simply weren't able to get the calibration done so their nice new screen looks right.

Blu-Ray presentation of color-intensive films like 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' are spectacular on this set. Fast-moving sports like Hockey and baseball render lightning-fast, unlike the ever-popular LCD screens that show a black streak on the ice instead of a puck. And of course, you get the most inches per dollar of any HDTV technology out there.

My sister has an older DLP Sony Grand WEGA set, and when the bulb finally popped on that thing, they had to pop for almost 0 to replace it, and then it was a huge rigamarole to get it replaced.

The bulb on this TV is around a hundred twenty bucks which is a steal for this kind of high-output light source. And it is 100% user replaceable. That is what sold me on this TV. Because at that low price for a bulb, I can keep a spare on hand at all times and if the thing blows I can quickly get it up and running again.

I can't stress enough how important this feature is for anyone looking at rear-projection DLP. Your bulb is going to blow. It's a wear item, like brakes on your car. Designing the system so that the user can replace the bulb is so smart, Mitsu should get a medal. Designing the bulb so that it can be sold for around a hundred bucks: awesome.

How does the picture compare with the Panasonic plasma? The plasma is better. Blacks: blacker. Whites: whiter. Action: faster. Viewing angles: WAY wider. But the plasma just ain't big enough for my application, and a plasma the size of this gigantic DLP will cost you your firstborn child. The brightness and video quality penalty is the trade-off for the eye-popping size of this screen. It was totally worth it for me, and the experience with the bigger screen really blows away the higher plasma quality for me.

So you know where I'm at with this TV. If you are looking for the home theater experience, I recommend you stop looking at flatscreens and projectors. You've found the right TV type and the right brand. Mitsu stuck with rear projection DLP and refined it while so many others were switching over to all flatscreen, all the time. Those of us non-millionaires for whom there's no substitute for screen real estate are very happy they did.

Go to your local Mitsubishi DLP dealer and see these big things in action. Choose the model that fits you best, and start shopping that model. 00 for this TV is a gettable deal, and you may be able to get it for that just by offering that price to your local Mitsu guy. You'll pay for delivery, but the charge will be similar to what you pay the Amazon affiliates who sell this TV--and you'll have a local warranty, This is similar to a degree.

Your personal economy you on television, I am sure your shopping list, a TV put in a permit to use the $ 3,000 if you are.

You'll regret it, regret it.
