My Experience: I got this set at a great price ($1119), but I am not too happy with the black levels, especially on dark scenes.

The picture looks decent in scenes with a lot of bright subject matter, like out in daylight, but there is not a lot of detail in the darks.

Doing it over again I'd have spent $500 more and bought something different.

Problems: Very poor black levels for a plasma.
