Buying a Samsung HLR5667W DLP HDTV, what do you think?

[Negativecreep0]

whats up guys im getting  the above mentioned tv HLR5667W 56" tv for my new finished basement, have you guys heard anything about it? any suggestions about getting a different set? Anything about it having ghosting effects when playing console games on it? thanks.........

[Harry Potter]

If it has the words samsung and DLP in the one thing, you can't go wrong.

No personal experience though.

[ChadTower]

Is Samsung that good a name now?  I don't buy much stuff like this and it used to be that Samsung was the low end cheap crap.

[Harry Potter]

They've gotten heaps better a while back.

I got me a DVI samsung DVD player which performs like a beast, 19inch LCD samsung monitors which I compared to LG, Phillips and Benq. All had too much video noise.
I didn't do Sony cause they're too damn expensive.

A friend has a 32" widescreen Samsung LCD which is very crisp on VGA. It actually performs better than his NEC plasma TV.

The only thing I wouldn't buy from them is Audio equipment.

[ChadTower]

I have a Samsung dvd/vcr combo that performs like ass.  Always has.

[Harry Potter]

I tend to stay away from any of those combo things. No matter what brand.

Not surprised.

[TOK]

Never heard about ghosting effects, but research on display delay somewhere like avsforum.com

Some projection TV's have a delay which makes controller timing slightly off from whats happening on the screen. It's apparently just enough to make playing games difficult. Can't remember any more specifics than that. Once my setup was done, I kind of got out of the research mode.

[JackTucky]

AFTER i bought my mitsu DLP, I researched it.  lots of problems with rainbow, ghosting, etc.  but i never saw it.

the TV gets rAVE reviews.  It is gorgeous.

DLP ROCKZ.

I just had a custom cabinet built n my basement for it, with room for 3 19" TV's above.  It's sweet.  Can't wait to watch 4 games at once. 

All I need is a reverse whizzinator, and I'll never get up.

i've been looking at a bunch of hd tv's lately.  up close, you can see the fuzz on the hd channels for a bunch of them.  i don't know if that is important, but  you should check out the display before you buy it.

[ChadTower]

I have a regular 27" tv and it rocks.  I can see people on it and if I turn it on, it's people who aren't in the room.

27"  That's small.  Does it have a handle on top?

[ChadTower]

27" is just fine for someone who doesn't sit far from it.

I'd rather have a $400 TV and $1500 in my pocket than a $1900 TV.

I love my 61" Samsung DLP.

[Negativecreep0]

in AVS forum im reading some people say their is lag or ghosting in some games, while others say they don't notice. I wanna use the tv largely as a gaming tv also? Will i run into problems

[erictrumpet]

I have seen the lag effect (the picture and sound are not perfectly in synch) on Samsung DLPs with my own eyes (my neighbor just bought one last month) and believe me, it is NOTICEABLE and UNACCEPTABLE! It is really bad. Once you know it's there, you cannot ignore it. It will drive you crazy. There are workarounds but nothing really solves this SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW.

For me (and many others) the picture/sound asynchronicity on the Sammy is a deal-breaker. I suggest you skip it.

A friend of mine just bought the Mitsubishi 61" DLP and absolutely loves it, check that one out.

Eric.

[Negativecreep0]

any lag issues there?

[erictrumpet]

any lag issues there?

On the Mitsu? Nope. I am not sure the exact model # he bought, but it's the 61 incher that runs about $4K street price - the 1080p model.

Agree -- but you have to live in a windowless bomb shelter. Light control is a major issue with front projection. But for a dedicated basement home theater, nothing beats it. Who wants to watch TV in a dark dungeon all the time though?

I opened my curtains during the 2000 Bush victory theft. does that count?

[duffjr]

what are the drawbacks of LCD/Plasma?

[erictrumpet]

LCD -- cannot draw absolute blacks (so contrast suffers), and no sizes larger than 42 inches or so are affordable or available.

Plasma -- burn-in is a major issue. Play anything with bars on the top/bottom or sides (like if you watch 4:3 material and don't stretch it), you will experience burn-in just like old arcade monitors! (Well not "just like," but you get the idea.) The problem is serious -- even the lower-right-hand-corner channel markers can cause problems. I have no direct experience with this but check anywhere on the net, you will see plasma burn-in is a problem inherent in all plasma sets.

And don't forget, pixels blow very easily on these things.
Also, due to the nature of the technology (it using plasma gas), a plasma TV cannot be used above about 3000 meters above sea level (don't know the exact height)

i'm thinking about just going black and white...

[ChadTower]

I must be farther behind the time than I thought.  The concept of a 42" tv sounds freakin gigantic to me.

[Santoro]

It is all relative to the size of your room.

[ChadTower]

The biggest TV I've ever owned is 27"... the concept of paying more than, oh, $650 on a TV still feels exhorbitant.

[JackTucky]

That thing run on batteries?   

[erictrumpet]

I must be farther behind the time than I thought. The concept of a 42" tv sounds freakin gigantic to me.

Remember every TV these days is widescreen so 42 inches is really more like a 36 inch regular 4:3 TV in terms of image height. And if you watch 4:3 material (like a regular TV broadcast or a Stanley Kubrick movie on DVD) you will have bars on the left and right, and the actual picture image will be about the size of a typical 36 inch TV. That is NOT huge.

Screen size also has a lot to do with room size and set placement. A 42 inch TV can be placed close enough to your face that it fills your field of view as much as a 60 inch set farther away. But trust me bigger is better.

Eric.

[ChadTower]

I fully understand all of the concepts.  It doesn't change my opinion that anything over about 32" is really unnecessary. 

It's about cost, really.  People run out and feel entitled to a $2000 television and then wonder why they're still paying for it 3 years later.

[Santoro]

I love TV.

Not even sure I love the programming.  I love the TV.

[ChadTower]

That is all relative to your financial position, right?

[whammoed]

Its all about priorities.  I have a 36" tv that I paid less than $600 for.  I doubt I'll replace it until everything is HDTV...unless it dies.  BUT, I spent over $2k on my last arcade game and you can make a functional machine with less than $500.

[ChadTower]

What was the game?

I mean, I fully understand that people can and will spend that on a giant TV.  What I don't get is that more and more people feel that 50"+ is all that could possibly be worth having and that TVs start at $1500+.

[erictrumpet]

For the record I do not own a big screen TV. I am just a tech-junkie so I shop and research stuff like this and know a lot about it. I am happy with my 32 inch non-HDTV set. I go to my freinds' houses and watch their giant TVs, they were dumb enough to spend $4K on it. I would rather put more money into my mame obsession!!

Nice.  That's a project, though, and while you'll never be able to sell it for $2000, it's something that is definitely not going to depreciate in the huge way a TV does. 

[dmsuchy]

Santoro, I thought rainbows weren't anissue with rear projection DLP tvs, since the projection is within the television "box". Can you see rainbows with a Samsung? Chad, i have a 32" Toshiba that I paid 800 bucks for about 9 years ago, and sadly it is going out. My next TV will be a Samsung HLR5067W that cost around 1600 bucks. I love my 32" but 1600 is cheap for a HDTV tv that is only 12" deep. And I still have my 3 year old Sony HS10 projector in my basement theater for movies, but like another poster mentioned you really need light control for the best visual.

[Santoro]

Even if you have the $2000, you could have a 32" TV and $1200 to spend on something else.

Yes, I can definitely see them on the rear projection DLP.

[dmsuchy]

BUT, these rainbows are more common with the front projectors right? My buddy has a DLP Samsung and i couldn't see anything, so I'm hoping that I won't with the TV I will buy in the future. Rainbows was the main reason I went with LCD instead of DLP with my projector.

[Santoro]

Honestly, I think you are just one of the lucky ones.  :-)

I just looked up that TV, nice! I rember when 1080i was the best resolution and now they have 1080p, I really wonder if you could tell the diffrence in pic quality between the two. I know "i" means enterlaced and all, but when does the resolution become greater than the eye can detect? The Samsung I want to buy is a 50" and only does 1080i but only cost 1600 bucks. I would rather have this TV now and have 2400 bucks for an upgraded TV in the next 4 to 5 years. Just my opinoin.

what im scared about is video game lag though, as a lot of people report having it in console games on samsung dlp tvs and a lot say they cant tell.... so im gonna bring my ps2 to the tweeter before i buy. It would be a shame if there really was such a problem as this tv has the most beautiful picture that i have ever seen and the other tv mitsubishi that comes closest isn't anywhere ass sharp as the samsung

[Santoro]

1080P, Nice.

[dmsuchy]

Negative, buy a 27" television and the money you save you can send to Chad for SCUBA gear. What a Merry Festives!

[ChadTower]

Dude that is a good idea.

[erictrumpet]

The Sammy video/audio lag is really bad. Good idea to take your game machine into the store and try before you buy. I would be very surprised if you did not report back here that the lag was noticeable and unacceptable. Then again, maybe Sam has fixed the problem, but so far no fix is reported on the net boards on the subject. Anyway good luck! If you like the TV, then it doesn't matter what we say. Buy it and enjoy!

Eric.

[RayB]

I'm with Chad. TV is TV.  I used to have an old used set. If it can display a picture and in color, then it was good enough for me.  Until I got a PS2. Then I at least needed a crisp decent pic, so I forked over $400 for a 27". 

I don't really see a need for much larger unless you have a large room, but even then, there's no law that says a TV and couch need to be placed on opposite sides of a room.

One way to look at it is that the bigger the TV, the more you will see the jagged pixels when playing games!

Yeah, they said the same thing about HDTV in Australia.
Fools were buying $10000 HD TV sets and it took 2-3 years for content to arrive and even now, it's just 4 chanels of commercial TV. Really worht it.

I'd wait until it actually arrives and then wait a year until the technology becomes more common and reliable.

And merry christmas 

[lcddream]

lcd projection is the route i took.....great tv. i was looking into the dlp's but i was a rainbow seer...some people see the rainbows some don't. you see them if you make quich eye movements away from the screen...like if someone walks by while you're watching tv..

lcd proj has the contrast ration drawback...which by the way if you don't look at the lcd side by side with a plasma you'll never know the difference. and it also has the "screen door" effect due the the individual pixels that can be seen sometimes in certain situations...i really only see that when i'm fairly close to the tv.

anyway good luck...its stressful buying a projection/plasma tv.

[pointdablame]

They will be for kids who are 15 now.

Again, its all relative.  I understand how you feel about people saying they "need" these things... but I don't see how you can argue opinions.

You don't play new games, you don't want a 60" TV, and you don't want a $3k stereo system.  That doesn't mean its not the "best" use of entertainment dollars for every person in the world.

If you're not into it, thats fine, but don't feel the need to justify the purchase to someone who isn't interested. I kind of get that "have not" vibe from the whole thing.

This thread is getting crazier and crazier...

[dmsuchy]

1080p broadcasting actually exists at this time. However, several 1080p resolutions have been standarized for future broadcasting use.
Okay just read this on the old internet, I would save some dough and get the 1080i resolution TV now and with the money you save you can get a 1080p in a couple of years. I still would like to see how much of a diffrence can be seen between the 2 formats. I was reading on the web about the contrast ratios displayed on diffrent televisions and how the human eye can not detect the diffrence, but better numbers sell TVs. What doed the future hold? Will we think we can see a diffrence? Well maybe they will be implanting bionic eyes into us in the next 5 years.

Ray, I'm not following either.

[dmsuchy]

I have to agree with Ray, my wife doesn't understand my addiction to "gadgets", she would much rather go on vacation than have a big screen TV. When I finished my basement home theater she was always complaining that it was too loud, too much subwoofer, and now that we have a baby, we watch TV on my old 32" Toshiba, so we can hear if the baby cries and it is not as loud as the surround sound in the basement. But all women are diffrent I just wished my wife was into home theater a little more than shopping for baby clothes. God bless the wife that loves big screen, I wish my wife could hang out with that kinda lady!

Since I bought my plasma screen I have messed around with the various resolutions.

480P looks ever so slightly better than 480I when hooked up through RGB. 480I through the regular RCA input trounces them both. While the native VGA res of the monitor with a computer trounces all of them. But that is just my set.

All of the above look better than both my normal TV and my D9200.

I cannot make any reports about the S-video quality as my latest s-video cable has gone black and white on me, AGAIN!!! This is the 4th s-video cable that has happened to, and not all with the same equipment either.

[dmsuchy]

Paige, are you saying that regular "yellow" RCA plug at 480i looks better than RGB componet video at 480p? I am under the belief that componet looks the best than Svideo than finally composite.

Component SHOULD look much better than normal RCA, at least in general.  I can't speak for Paige's set obviously, but if that's the case for his, something seems odd.

There's a pretty noticeable quality bump from RCA to Component, especially if you are doing comparisons and really looking for the differences.

Paige, are you saying that regular "yellow" RCA plug at 480i looks better than RGB componet video at 480p? I am under the belief that componet looks the best than Svideo than finally composite.

It might also very well be the possibility that the 480P is so sweet that it is showing off the flaws in the original DVDs/tapes/Divxs/etc. Some of them do look better with 480P, but enough of them don't that I have been running 480i instead.

Also, annoyingly enough my monitor has no zoom modes available when running RGB.

Finally, I have always thought it was funny that every widescreen set is 16:9, while it seems like 80 percent of the widescreen content out there is 2.35:1 and fifteen percent is 1.85:1, while the remaining 5 percent is actually 16:9. Searching through all my DVDs so far I have only found one 16:9 movie (Total Recall), compared to about 30 2.35:1 movies and several 1.85:1 movies.
