Dell: Mitsubishi WD-73C12 73-Inch 1080p 120 Hz DLP Home Cinema TV - $949 w/ FS AC

Quote from obsssd : These will be $699 on Black Friday why buy now?

I doubt it. The model before this went for $929 at the end of November last year.

On second thought... maybe your right. Everything will be much cheaper on BF. From Computers, TV's, hard drives etc... I think SD should just completely shut down until BF.

Not sure why you even bothered visiting SD today - wait til BF

Quote from Wyndhamscams : Will you show me the advertisement for that?

I love how people think EVERYTHING becomes a loss leader on black friday.

Quote from kovy : Flawless? Really? No reboots? No shutdowns? No software or technical problems at all? Completely flawless?

Isn't a TV rebooted every time it is shut off?

Quote from obsssd : These will be $699 on Black Friday why buy now?

Exactly. Why buy anything now when you can wait till Black Friday.

No, when you have bad input source and when you shutdown then only reboot to make sure it works good next time, which good rather than messing around with your input source. I personally not seen any single reboot on my 92840. It all depends on the input source which not to worry about.

We paid about $600 for a similar tv on BF last year and it's worked out great so far.

BEWARE OF YOUR DELIVERY!

In early September, I bought this from Dell. But the delivery people, Pilot Freight, managed to mix up their delivery times and dates twice. I wasted so much time waiting around for the delivery, that I at last had to tell them to pound sand. So if you are getting this from Pilot, beware. On the bright side, price has gone down and I can reorder for less. Whopee!

Quote from vmax84 : . . .. One more thing.....I did end up buying 3d glasses and the adapter for the tv, and we really like that experience as well. Awesome tv.

You can't do that with this TV - NO 3D.

Just so others are not confused.

Many SDers get this one last BF.

Yes you can't hang DLP Televisions on the wall, but how many hang large size sets on the wall anyway? Most that I know put large sets on some sort of console - just like you'd put a DLP TV on - a sturdy console.

I've seen LCD, Plasma, and now LED sets, and sure some are clear and have no problems with ghosting, and burn in, but for some reason, I still prefer the clarity of a DLP set. Not sure why, perhaps the feeling of depth that a projection television provides.

I've owned a Sony SXRD 60" DLP television that I purchased back in March 2007. Yes, I've owned it for about 5 1/2 years now, and all those years I haven't had one glitch. The only problem was that after three years the light bulb suddenly went out - no warning, it just flashed out one time we were watching it. However, it was an easy fix - a replacement bulb unit cost me $100, and was so easy to replace - I had to open the side light bulb door, disconnect the light bulb wires, pull out the old unit, push in the new one, hook up the wires, and close the door. And - wow, I had a brand new picture once again - it was perfect, like a brand new television set. And hey, if I have to replace that light unit every 2 to 3 years for a hundred dollars to get a new picture (instead of buying a new TV(, shoot, I'll do that any day.

Right now Mitsubishi I think is the only manufacturer of DLP HDTVs - and when I upgrade to a larger set, with 3D, I plan on getting one. As long as it will fit on my Oak Console, probably a 70 - 75 inch, I'll be a happy camper. I'd bite on this TV, but you've all said it doesn't have 3D capabilities, so I'll pass. But please, just because a set is DLP, don't let that stop you. DLP is good - check out the picture in a Big screen store - I'm sure you'll be pleased with the quality.

Quote from vagreasedeals : I bought the 60" version of this TV back on Black Friday 2009. I have ZERO complaints and, yes, mine has been flawless. I use it for movies, sports, and video games. Now I am looking out for a deal on the 83" and 92" version. Hopefully they drop this Black Friday.

Ill second that one.

Please God let that happen this year.

Quote from kovy : Flawless? Really? No reboots? No shutdowns? No software or technical problems at all? Completely flawless?

I've had the Mitsubishi - WD-73640 for about a year now and yes, it has been flawless. No reboots, no technical problems, no lamp issues.

I'd recommend Mitsubishi for anyone that wants a giant TV that won't break the bank. My only regret is getting the smallest one they offered at the time

How is off-angle viewing on this?
