Best Bang for the buck is what got me in my Mits WS65413 this year. Too bad it doesnt support 720p. Although the Sony counterpart that was 720p compatible only upscaled it to 1080i....   xboxmodder4life: Pick up the MS High Def Pack and hook up your xbox to your 51h83! Once you go big screen high def gaming, you'll never go back...

You didn't by chance get it at Sears when they accidentally mispriced it did you?

I got my WS55413 for $1249 delivered +  a free progressive scan DVD player.  The same day the 65413 was $1799 I believe.  I saw the 55" on their web site the first morning and ran it through my head all day before my wife and I went to the store that afternoon to buy it.  Incredible luck since I hadn't been on Sears' site in over a year.

I am so impressed with the picture and it's only gotten better as everything has settled in.  I only regret that I'm moving in a few months and don't want to get it ISF calibrated before putting it on a moving truck.

i got the high def. pack now just waiting for my pre-modded xbox from system-mods. Shoulda just done it all my self.. but this way i was gauranteed a samsung drive.


Also damn that's cheap for a 55inch tv were the mispriced or something?...


I love the mits picture and the toshibas. I was gonna get a 65inch mits but it was to big for my viewing distance (6-10ft)

Yup! I jumped in on the deal the last minute. I printed out the web prices the night before, took a 2 hour lunch from work the next day, and headed to Sears and got the 65413! Best part was that my salesperson was cool and did a 110% pricematch as well as give me an extra $50 off for the delivery since we both didnt know that there was a $50 MIR!!! So final price before taxes was around $1650!!! Not bad for a 2004 $3k set.   I am still in the process of remodeling my place so the set hasnt been fully calibrated yet. Just whatever I could do with the Avia HT Calibration disk. If you haven't done so yet, get Finding Nemo; I swear the characters look liked they were popping out of the screen since it was so clear! xboxmodder4life: I'm sitting about 10' away from my 65". Although I can still see the artifacts/pixalation from the SD signal from DirecTV; movies and XBOX games look just right! TV's will shrink in size. Trust me...

What a deal that was.  I'm holding off on ISF until I move.  I don't want to get it all setup and then throw my set in a moving truck and bounce it around for a thousand miles.  I'll have to try the Nemo DVD.

You are right though - you get used to size very quickly.  I sit about 8-9' and a 65" would not be too big but my wife would have never gone for it (and admittedly it may not have fit in the alcove where we have the 55".

yea well the only reason i was able to get it because of the best buy 0% financing for 12months.

But also i'm no longer in highschool i dropped out to get my GED(long story) so therefore i have alot of time to work

It's not like I'm spoiled! I earn my keep helping my dad work on the house. I also work as a laborer on side jobs because he's a bricklayer.
