TV talk - Reliable TV - Tube, LCD, plasma...

I'm having an audio/video dealer install my Samsung DPL, Denon, DVD, and hook it up to the stereo system I use for my present Sony XBR. The reason? Well, I'm ignorant about video and that breeds insecurity about setting up all this stuff. If there's a problem, I want it to be his problem to solve, plus I want to be able to call someone if I have a problem, that is familiar with my system. Brian, what I'm I getting at? What was it like setting up your Mitsu? Picture aok, right out of the box? Need adjustments? Quirky things with the setup. I'm just wondering, perhaps, that doing this myself may not be as difficult as I'm thinking. Could save oodles of $$, as well. I'd appreciate your feedback. thanks in advance. peace, warren

Wh, you are on the right track and I highly recommend doing exactly what you suggest for several reasons. Like you, I didn't know diddly about video, I am getting a crash course; it would of been nice to have had someone here to do setup, give me a run through on how to use things, the best way to wire things and suggestions on any other things that may make it perform best.

I have learned from reading on the 'net that manufactuturers will make default settings based on making their TV's look best on the show room floors, which are expected to be brightly lit rooms, so these settings may not be optimal for home; so again, having that dealer there to help dial things in would be nice.

Thanks for the feedback, Brian. I feel better, already. I'll post, when I have something.....
