Woa Calm Down Larry,

I will gladly put MY Diamond, up against an Elite. I actually liked the Elite more when I was out shopping, I couldn't justify the Price difference for the picture difference. In fact the Elite is about the only RPTV I have seen that equals or betters the picture quality and cabinet quality of the diamond. Go to HomeTheaterSpot in the Mitsubishi section and tell everyone there that their Sets suck and you will get the same response that the Diamond is not some Best Buy piece of Crap. There are also alot of people out there that don't want a built in tuner.
I didn't mean to upset you larry but I 'also' spent quite a deal of money on my system, and I don't feel like my equipment is just 'nice'. I still stand by my 'opinion' that Sharp and Zenith are not the 'Best' HDTV that it would be the Pioneer Elite or the Mitsubishi Diamond.
