Which is better DLP or 3LCD?

Should i buy a 65" Toshiba DLP rear projection or a mitsubishi 65" regular DLP?

• im shopping for a new big tv and i found a couple at good prices i think.....so im looking for suggestions the Toshiba is 65" DLP rear projection for $1500 the Mitsubishi is also 65" but is a regular DLP for $1900 theyre both 1080p and most everything else si the same too...basically one is rear projction and one isnt......im just wondering if the extra 400 dollars is worth it for the regular dlp instead of projection...because ive heard about all the problems with the lamps in the projection tvs. Any advice would be greatly appreciated....or if anyone knows where i can get a better deal for a huge newer tv for the price?? Thanks

• Answer:

  Well, I'd go for the Mitsubishi Too.... But I don't understand the difference between a rear projection and the Mits REGULAR DLP.... I thought they were BOTH Rear Projection DLP TV sets.... Or are you saying the Toshiba is a CRT Rear projection? God....if it was a CRT Rear Projection unit, I'd jump on THAT ONE just because of it's Reliability, it's 1080 Native Resolution, and it's Longevity AND it's Cheapness over the LIFE of the TV set.... Only ONE FIX needed in the life of a CRT Projo...and that's the Convergence amps... But I'd PREFER it to be a Mitsubishi CRT Projo or Sony, or Hitachi....Toshiba is good but they sometimes need the HYPER board fixed on that brand.... Anyways, go for the Mitsubishi...they have a good track record of very few failures compared to other brands....
