I'm looking for a size around 46" maybe 50". I was really set on the Pioneer (PDP-5080HD) but after seeing the new LCD 120Hz sets, I was not so sure. Basically I was comparing the Pioneer to the Samsung (LN-T5271). The Sammy was really good and didn't have the common blocking effect I see on all the other LCDs.. It also had great black levels. When comparing the two side by side, the Pioneer looks washed out.. The set was darker and just didn't look as clear..I have not seen the SONY (KDL-46xBR4) but I hear it's also a good set.. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I wait till more 120Hz sets come out? What about Panasonic? Has anyone compared the Sony to the Samsung? BB had a Panasonic 32 inch 120Hz but that was to small.. Thanks!
