I'm ready to drop money on either a Panasonic TH-50PHD8UK or a Samsung HL-R5688W. Now I know you are saying well they aren't the same size and yes I agree but they are what I'm looking at in the price range. The size difference isn't really a problem. What are issues are PQ and placement. I've seen the consumer version of the 8UK and it looks great but then again I also like the look of the 720P 50" Sammy pedestal DLP so I'm sure PQ is great on both the sets but I'm buying sight unseen. The main issue though is placement. Which ever set I buy is going in a room with more than a fair amount of light in the day time. On top of that I'm restricted to 1 spot for each tv but both different. See images for the whole picture:
DLP Placement
Plasma Placement
The way the building is positioned the sun rises in the wall of glass and sets on the exact opposite wall so I don't know how the light will affect daytime TV viewing. As you can tell from the pictures the light would be behind the DLP but to the left of the plasma. If anyone could tell me how this could negatively affect the picture of each I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks
