I am looking to get a Plasma. I am getting Dish's 952 HD-DVR which has a HDMI output. I am planning on running that through a receiver (HDMI in and HDMI out) to the plasma. I know i will need a HDMI module for the TH-50PHD8UK.
I also want to jack in my DVD player. I don't know if I would send it to the plasma or the receiver, but probably the receiver for audio and the plasma for video.
Is the TH-50PHD8UK the right beast for me?
I have read a lot of good things about the Panasonics and have looked at the commercial models in Best Buy and Circuit City. But, it seems that if the Dish receiver is in the mix, I really don't need the plasma to be anything but an big monitor, so a commercial plasma might not make sense for me.
