Even with new technologies like the plasma, the LCD and the DLP taking the markets by storm and occupying most of the market share some of the manufacturers are still offering large screen CRT projection sets with better performance at much more sensible prices. Although the size of the cabinet does have most people shying away from them some of the sets really have much superior performance to the sets using other technologies. Style and elegance may be one of the factors at which the CRT may be caught lacking.

The dimensions of the set are 61 inches in width, almost 60 inches in height and 25 3/8 inches in depth. The depth, even though quite high, is not much larger than some of the rear projection televisions of the same size. The depth though will be beaten silly if you dare compare it to the LCD’s. With this in mind I will make it a point to keep the comparisons restricted to the CRT’s. The weight of the set is just a bit less than 260 which is quite reasonable for a CRT television having a screen size of 65 inches. The Hitachi 65F59 has an integrated ATSC tuner which enables it to process all incoming signals upto 1080i.

Overall the set offers excellent performance providing excellent black levels and accurate colors which are the specialties of the CRT without the problems faced by the use of the newer technologies. The pricing of the CRT sets makes it a good value for money.

With the use of the LCD technology Hitachi has managed to keep the set very compact and lightweight inspite of its huge size. The dimensions of the set are 50 ¾ inches in width, 34 ¼ inches in height and 18 inches in depth. The weight of the set is a measly 86 pounds which is quite commendable considering the size.

The Hitachi 55VS69 has been well designed not just in terms of the compactness but also with respect to the design and styling. The front of the cabinet has been kept clean and tidy with the channel and volume buttons located at the side with other inputs and outputs on the backside. The placement of the speakers inside the cabinet at the bottom of the screen has allowed the manufacturers reduce the width of the set by a precious few inches.

The set is cable TV ready with the inclusion of a CableCard slot which eliminates the need and the hassles to go for separate set top boxes. The native resolution of the set is 1280 X 720 which is sufficient for any input sources at 720p.

The Hitachi 62VS69 is a high definition television using the LCD technology and has a 62 inch screen size when measured diagonally. LCD HDTV’s till now have not exactly been given the attention that is normally bestowed upon the other versions like the DLP or flat panel sets. But this set proves that the LCD technology will not be knocked out of the race so easily, as it makes quite an effort with some good performance and a decent list of features. The screen size is really huge and is an excellent option if you are looking for a big screen size for a relatively small size.

The Hitachi 62VS69 offers a native resolution of 1280 X 720 in which all the incoming signals are displayed at 720p. Hitachi has used a three panel LCD system in which each panel is used for red, green, and blue colors. One of the drawbacks of the use of LCD technology is the screen door effect. In screen door effect you can easily see the space between the pixels especially during bright scenes. The speakers have been intelligently placed inside the cabinet at the bottom of the screen which reduces the width of the set on both sides of the screen by quite a few inches.

The dimensions of the set are 57 inches in width, 35 inches in height and 19 ½ inches in depth. The set weighs in at just above 100 pounds. The set offers a good performance giving good colors although there is room for improvement as far as the black levels are concerned.
