60" Panasonic VIERA TC-P60GT50 Plasma HDTV $200 PRICE DROP - $1699 Free Shipping

I have the 55" GT50 no buzzing and I haven't seen any image retention what so ever.. TV's been awesome and only reason I pick it over the 60" was the $550 price difference at the time over 5 inches and I wasn't sure about how much glare they might be although that hasn't been bad at all from outside light but slightly more from overhead lighting than the 60" led-lcd I came from.

I'm looking for the 2013 60" ST60 this year for sure

Quote from jg62 : Been reading up on this model over on AVS and the one thing that concerns me is the buzzing sound some people say they experience. Just wondering what your experience has been with that, or any other issues? Thanks.

Why hold out?

PM the best price on a 50GT50 at BB. Then go in for PA later.

That's what I did on my 50gt50.

You get to enjoy the TV in the meantime AND still get the best price around.

actually I was at CES and they now have an even higher model than VT is called ZT I kid you not! http://www.electronichouse.com/sl...13914/1807 no price yet!

How long can you price adjust for? And just once?

Bought it, don't want to wait any longer. Plus this is a great deal on this TV

This is a great television series. I picked one up in December, 55" and the picture is amazing. It blows away the Samsung LED that I replaced it with.

holding out on a deal on the 65inch

...ditto, I own the 55 GT50 and there's not buzzing at all...beautiful TV!

I actually had a GT50 ready to buy, but I found a steal of a deal on the Samsung e8000. I have no regrets, but the GT50 had an unbelievably good picture, and overall was a sweet TV. I got the e8000 for $50 more than what the GT50 would have been, but if I had this opportunity at that time, I would have jumped on the GT50.

I saw the GT50 in the 60" model and the VT50 in the 65" model side-by-side, and the VT50 is on another planet. It was probably the best picture on a plasma I'd ever seen. There's no 60" VT50 model, but if there had been, I'd have had a real dilemma on my hands.

Quote from bobotheklown : Indeed, holding out for a 50gt50 myself. VT50 has a bit deeper blacks thanks to the Ultra infinite black pro panel. Also a little bit better bright room performance. The Amazon comparison chart is a good place to start.

Quote from edgeh2o : The GT50 and ST50 have a brighter picture than the VT50. The VT50 has more calibration settings and slightly blacker blacks.

lol so which is it? VT50 is brighter or not? In the store it seemed to have a slightly better antiglare coating than the GT (comparing reflections from the overhead lighting). Sadly the store that had both next to each other was about to close, so both the GT and VT were off so couldn't compare direct brightness

Quote from jterp7 : lol so which is it? Vt50 is brighter or not?

vt brighter>gt

Do you get both 2% back in rewards and $100 amazon credit?

I'm holding out for Amazon on the 50GT50 too because I don't have to pay tax and I can get 2% cashback - saves me about $100.
