Panasonic VIERA S1 Series TC-P65S1 65-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV Black


Best value on the market5

I looked at this set and the TC-P65V10 in Best Buy before I purchased it here. Using the same input I could not tell more that a tiny marginal difference in the V10's 96hz 24p feature and this set without. I also looked at the 60" KURO and while it did look better calibrated it was not worth the more than "double the price" premium. I could tell a difference in the price though and back in my in home all I can say is "WOW what a picture". This performance available at this Amazon price point is the value of the year in television IMHO.



I bought the new TC-P54G10 in early September and also have a 720P 50" TH-50PX80U model. While the TC-P65S1 Panasonic does not have THX I was not as impressed with the THX settings as I thought I would be and prefer to use the custom settings. In my opinion this is still by far the best picture of the three sets I own. It shares the same Neo-PDP glass as the 54G10 but at 65" the 1080 ability really shows through. Even at the 54" size I cannot tell the difference with the 720 sets but this 65S1 shines like a star. I watched the Thursday night college football game on ESPNHD and spent more time being amazed at the picture than at the game and it was a darn good game.



This set is in a big room 19' x 26' 12" ceiling with lots of glass windows behind it and sliding doors. The anti glare works well really great.

They need to add the ability to use Netflix right from the set and add more picture control ability for fine tuning and calibration of the picture.



Panasonic really knows their stuff. I can't wait until they come out with a 100" or better Plasma that folks who are not a Rap-Star can afford.



Don't hesitate to purchase through Amazon!More detail ...
