The Bottom Line:
Overall this is a wonderful TV for those who want a larger setup and are not quite ready for digital.
My neighbor recently bought a Mitsubishi 70" VS-70707 and I went to check it out. I must say that it is a nice set and I wouldn't mind having one of my own (If I could find a place to put it.)
The 70707's picture quality is very sharp for an RPTV (rear projection TV) and is very bright, and sustains it well throughout the corners. Mitsubishi's Color Tuned Diamond Shield seems to add a lot of contrast that older mitsu models i've seen lacked. It supposedly does this without dimming the picture by filtering certain hues of yellow and orange light from the surroundings to prevent the drownout that most RPTVs suffer from in bright rooms. I really couldn't tell, just thought it would be worth noting. One complaint I would make is that the viewing angle is rated at only 110 degrees; Quite pitiful when compared to the 130 degree of Sony's 61" 4:3 models. Overall, the picture is sharp, colorful, and huge. It will more than satisfy the average viewer.
Mitsubishi also boasts that the sound quality has been seriously upgraded from it's Silver Series of TVs (70707 is in the Gold Series.) It claims that it can push more than 50% more surface area than the Silvers. I can't be sure if they really can, but the default speakers in this cabinet are very nice, much better than the ones in both my Sony Wegas. However, I think most people who would consider this set would be more inclined to use their surround setup rather than the cabinet speakers.
The TV has a 4 inputs. 1 Component (480i), RF and 3 Composites (each with an S-Video input.) Simple, and straight forward. One component, RF and 2 composites in the rear, one composite in the front for easy access/temporary "plug n' play." For outputs they included the standard fixed audio, and a feature called the Active AV Network that will make all your Mitsubishi components (VCR, DVD, etc) interoperate. Too bad there isn't a standard for this.
The standard remote is more than just standard, it is a universal remote that controls just about every component of your home theater. TV, VCR, DVD, Cable Box, Satellite, Audio Reciever, and on top of all that, it's illuminated! Nice touch Mitsu.
