Yeah....I have a question on HDMI cables too. I bought some generic ones at Best Buy (not in price cause they were $30 but in brand). I hooked them up to my PS3 and it says that it only reads at 60hz. I checked the box and it says that it only goes to about 60hz. Is that true? Does certain cables have a limit on what they can project?
And if getting better HDMI cables is not the problem, then is there something else that I am doing to make my video on the PS3 look better? I got the Blu-Ray "Planet Earth" and although there are only so many shots that are true HD, it doesn't seem as clear as I would think it is. Any tips would be great....thanks.
[h1]Panasonic's 1-Inch Thin Z1 Plasma Deemed Beautiful, But Pricey in First Review[/h1]Who says plasma is dead? The 54-inch TC-P54Z1 improves upon the V10 series, and uses a separate box and wireless HDMI receiver. And after an exhaustive review, HD Guru says it delivers outstanding color, deep black levels, and superior motion.
The $5500 beauty uses a G12 1080p NeoPDP panel. Like Pioneer's Kuro, it does away with a top sheet of glass and bonds an anti-reflective coating directly to the top glass. HD Guru says this eliminates the internal reflections between the top two sheets of glass that you see on all other plasmas.
With the user controls tweaked, we sampled HD and SD content using source material from Verizon FIOS, DirecTV and HD movies from Blu-ray discs via Panasonic's DMP-BD80. The deep black level and bright whites consistently produced images with punch; undoubtedly due to the real world high contrast ratio the Z1 is capable of producing. Although the Z1 didn't ace the HQV jaggies tests, we noticed no problems with any source material we threw at it.
To connect the TV to the receiver set top box, the Z1 includes a wireless transmitter that can be fixed to the back of the set. You also get a pair of "elephant ear" side speakers, and a table stand.
The receiver has a built-in HDTV over-the-air tuner, and Ethernet (for Panasonic's Viera Cast content…stuff like Picasa photos, YouTube, Amazon, and Bloomberg news). It's a sweet system, and HD Guru's review is definitely worth a read if you've got that sort of cash to throw around.
If you have the wall space, and if you can dim the lights enough to make it look good. Projectors are tricky and require a lot to pull off. I knowa few people who have turned their garages into a home theatre, it's just kind of cold during the winterOriginally Posted by YoungTriz

120 hz is the fastest refresh rate...it just keeps motion blur away. Youll never notice the difference between a 60hz tv and a 120 hz tv.
If u want u can paypal me some $$$ and ill pick you up some HDMI cables for the low (circuit city employee disc.)
