Mitsubishi WD-65C9 65-Inch 1080p Flat panel DLP Home Theater

With picture perfomance that outpaces today's smaller flat panels, Mitsubishi Home Theater TVs offer a larger than life, intensely vivid viewing experience. In screen sizes ranging from 60 to 82 Inches, Mitsubishi Home Theater TV's define the large screeen entertainment category by offering incomparable value and stronger performance than smaller flat panel televisions!

Great TV for the price. I have allways been a fan of the DLP tv's and have a brick wall where we like the tv so not being super thin wasn't a big dealIt was actually thiner than the samsung dlp 50" we have. It doesn't seem to disperse much heat at all. The quality is outstanding and you can see it at any angle. My daughter doesn't like that it doesn't have Picture-in-Picture (it might but i dont know how to turn it on if it does) The set up color features suck but you can spend 20 or 30 minutes "dialing" it in how you like in several different modes like video game, bluray, and tv. I would buy it again.

Let me first say that, before I bought this TV I was watching TV using an Acer x1161 projector. I had a 92" diagonal image and was a little scared that the Mitsubishi 65" might not be satisying enough. Well I was dead wrong, I sit 9 feet away and I'ts more than enough. I'm a using 1.3 hdmi cable that I bought for 2.99 from Amazon and I don't think I could be possibly losing any resolution. Let me tell you, Crisp and clean, oh and my favorite, VIVRANT. It took about two days to get warmed up though, It had some inperfections at first as if it was lacking the smooth 120 feature but I had it on and now perfecto. The TV only needs about 10 seconds for the picture to go from dim to vivrant and then when you turn it off it need 10 seconds for the lamp to fully shut off. There's nothing else wierd about getting a dlp, sure you have to buy a replasement lamp every year or so but that's not weird, I heard dlp pictures never fade, degrade and die like lcd Tv's so.....I read in another review some guy posted a link for some picture settings but I found them too dull. I have my TV on natural and I'ts perfect. There's brilliant, bright, and natural. For 3d guys, yes this TV outputs checkerboard format which is a picture split int0 two checkerboard pictures at half resolution but your still going to get 1080p60hz per eye for everyone to know. Half resolution is not bad in the first place,1080i60hz, but the TV doubles the frame refresh at 120hz so in actuality your getting 1080p60hz per eye, that's 1080p120hz 3d picture, that's full 3d. So get one of these bad boys connected to a 3d blu ray player and.. fuget abadit!

This TV is by far the best value for your money you will find just about anywhere. Like many of the reviewers previously, I have owned many TVs over the years; Sharp, Sony, Toshiba, Pioneer etc. Those TVs ranged from projection, LCD to plasma. This is my first Mitsubishi and my first experience with DLP. I couldn't be happier. While it does take a little time to "warm up" when it is first turned on, the resulting image is well worth the very short wait. Colors are vibrant and picture detail and sharpness are both outstanding. Every time my son visits (he's into the latest technologies) he repeatedly comments on how great the picture is. I have had the TV for 2 months now and I have absolutely no complaints. I heartily recommend this unit.

See the review here on Amazon from the TV installer. This TV is a solid purchase for anyone considering > 55" TV that won't break the bank. Don't let the need for plasma or LCD based televisions fool you into thinking that you must spend almost 3x the price of this for that technology. If you want to go big on a budget, the DLP TVs are still a solid purchase. My 8 year old 57" Sony CRT Projection television popped a gasket and failed on me earlier than I wanted it too and before I was ready to make a 'big' purchase. I had dreamed of remodeling my bonus room to go full projection with movie screen and all that jazz but that was a significant investment to do what I wanted to do. I'd hoped to get another few years out of my CRT Projection but there were no parts available, and it appears that at least in my area no one wants to fix TVs, just sell you another one. So with help of AVSForum and a few other resources I decided that this version of the 65" DLP TVs from the folks at Mitsubishi was for me. First and Foremost if you are coming from an older style CRT projector YOU NEED A STAND. There is absolutely no base on this thing as far as height goes compared to older generation televisions. Right now we have it sitting on a desk as I have been unable to find a stand that works how I'd like it. I'd like one that can hold a large center channel (Klipsch RC-3) and some larger sized pre-amp/amp (Outlaw 990 and Outlaw 7700 amp) and the stands I have found so far aren't 'tall' enough on the shelves. I'm most likely going to design and make my own. I've watched a Blu-Ray movie on it, and about 15 to 20 hours of DirecTV HDTV on it, along with about 10 hours of PS3 Games I will admit that it looks markedly better than my older television but I think that's a combination of technology change and how the HDMI connections better communicate what mode to switch into. I'm not 100% certain but it's a lot easier to tell (via info button) what resolution is coming out of the DirecTV receiver or the BluRay player so I'm able 'see' what resolution I'm really at. Also the upgrade from 57" to 65" viewing is pretty amazing. As far as the 'detractions' you'll find about a DLP TV I am not seeing them. The TV is silent even after hours of viewing so there is no 'fan noise' that is reported about the light. Also, the light itself is inexpensive to replace ($99) compared to other brands of DLP TVs so the argument of a $300 light bulb is not an issue. You still need to replace it but $99 is easier to swallow than $200 - $300 i've seen for some models. I've also heard there are ways to add the software available for the higher model (737) vs. this model to add some features. Search engines are your friend on that one. Delivery worked as advertised. I wasn't home to see it but my wife reports that other than getting it to the door they're not much help. Fortunately the TV isn't terribly heavy and it's an easy two person job (due to size more than weight) to move it where needed. The box makes a great castle for the kids to play with as well.

OK, so I bought this from Dell for $970+/- with tax and free shipping. Paid on Sunday night, received Wednesday morning, longest two and a half days ever. After the delivery guy left I set it up, plugged in the cable(basic, no box) and my computer(3-way sli, hddvd/bluray, no joke) and turned it on. I almost cried, the picture was grainy, focus was off, picture didn't line up. Why did I ever buy this!! After 5 minutes of messing with the setting in the advanced settings section, WOW! It topped my old Samsung Plasma hands down and is every bit as good as my Toshiba LCD and thats without spending longer getting the setting dialed in. So, like many HDTV's, default setting suck, this one really sucked but after a couple of minor tweaks I have a 65" 1080 thats ready for 3D for under $1000. Pros: Price, seriously, find a 50" Vizio for $1000 let alone a name brand Picture, My friends 240hz LED is the only thing ive scene come close, he paid twice as much and no 3D. Menu, Its simple, maybe too simple for some but it was alot easier to set up than my other tvs. Cons: Stock setting, almost wet myself when I first saw the picture but whatever, its all good now. Remote, Not the worst ive ever scene but for a 2009/10 TV you'd think back lit and/or bigger buttons would have been added. No USB, well, not really. It has one but its for "Service" so maybe they will have firmware in the future to open it up but my computer can deal with the usb input as can my bluray so no biggie. Don't bother with the newer models from Mitsubishi, all the extras it has don't amount to the $500-2000 more you will pay, this is the TV for you.
