Summary

Going into this review, I had not been a fan of rear projection LCD. In fact, I think that for the most part it is inferior to other Micro-Display technologies. The examples from other manufacturers are dim at best with poor contrast and terrible brightness levels. So, to say that I was pleasantly surprised by Hitachi's achievement is an understatement. Clearly, Hitachi knows how to exploit this technology to its utmost, and I applaud them for it. I am happy to report that the images displayed were among the best presently available from any HDTV manufacturer.

So, if you want to experience true High Definition television and watch DVD movies featuring sharp and crisp color images, look no further than the Hitachi 60VX915. Hitachi's HDTV sets offer the consumer “state-of-the-art” technology with a terrific feature package in a very stylish and handsome cabinetry giving the look and feel of plasma, but without any of its detractors. It's a set for today and tomorrow featuring an integrated HDTV tuner, QAM HD cable tuner, and CableCARD. By including both HDMI and 1394, this set won't become obsolete for many years to come. If a 60-in. wide HDTV is not right for you, the 60VX915 has two siblings in the 915 Director's CineForm series. There's a larger 70-in. wide model (70VX915), and a smaller 50-in. wide sibling (50VX915) with identical features and performance characteristics.

The 60VX915 may not be in retail stores as of this review date, keep a look out for it.

“I have a 2005 42V710 and was thrilled with it until some yellowing appeared in the lower half of the screen after 3 years. Assuming it was the lamp, I just replaced it. The brightness and color are better, but the yellow tinge remains. Anyone know if it...” More...
