More color, for a more colorful image. Mitsubishi is taking Color to a new level with x.v.Color support and its exclusive 6-Color Light Engine. x.v.Color is the
new standard for HDTV and it enables 80% more color than standard HDTV! Mitsubishis 6-Color Light Engine processes and produces images with six different
colors instead of the traditional three to display a wider range of colors, brighter colors and whiter whites. Additional color features such as Color 4D Noise Reduction
and PerfectColor allow for additional advanced color processing and adjustment. The result is breathtaking realism with vivid, yet natural Color Without Compromise.
Larger screen, not larger spaces.

The stunning High Definition picture is further enhanced by its sleek and
modern look. Mitsubishis sleek, simple design provides more picture with less frame. This year even the 73 1080p DLP HDTV gets a thin frame, and a dramatically
thinner cabinet. With 1080p and a compact cabinet, get a larger screen and sit closer than ever before! Go ahead and get into the action, immerse yourself...
Lots of connections, made easy. Mitsubishi leads the industry with 3 rear HDMI 1.3 inputs and 2 rear component inputs for maximum HD connectivity. A Front

Amazon.com Product Description
The WD-65733 is a giant 65-inch DLP (Digital Light Processing) rear-projection HDTV from Mitsubishi that incorporates the latest technologies for an accurate picture that is perfect for a large home theater system.
Giant Performance, Small Footprint
Because the latest Texas Instruments 1080P DLP chip is inside, this television yields the full 1920 x 1080 high-definition resolution with progressive scan, the highest quality HDTV standard today. With a television this size, offering more than two million pixels is important to prevent visible pixelation.
The WD-65733 supports the x.v.Color standard for 80 percent more color than standard HDTV. View larger. View back panel. |
Despite the large screen size, the WD-65733 weighs just 78 pounds and is only 15.4 inches deep. View larger. |
The television can display any video signal that is connected to it. When a 1080p signal is the input, it passes through with no down conversion: The 1080p signal is maintained from beginning to end, giving the best picture quality. When a lower resolution is detected, whether it is 720p HD or a DVD, the signal is automatically scaled to display at 1080p, with minimal side effects and a very detailed picture.
The screen is huge and the technologies are many, but the unit itself weighs only 78 pounds and is only 15.4 inches deep, which means it will fit into many decors.
More Color
The WD-65733 incorporates a slew of new technologies that combine to give this television the most realistic color reproduction available on the market today. The new x.v.Color standard is supported, which dramatically increases the color space available, with 80 percent more color than standard HDTV.
The WD-65733 also supports Deep Color, a new standard that incorporates 10-bit color depth, versus the previous 8-bit color depth. With Deep Color, shaded images show less banding and greater contrast.
Coupled with this technology is Mitsubishi's exclusive 6-Color Light Engine, which uses six primary colors instead of the traditional three to create more colors. Mitsubishi's Color 4D Noise Reduction, PerfectColor, and PerfectTint yield a wider color palette and the ability to fine tune the set to your exact preferences. The end result is a brighter, smoother, and more realistic picture than ever before.
Connections Galore
You don't need to worry about running out of connections with the WD-65733. It has three HDMI 1.3 inputs with Simplay HD certification, so you can connect your Blu-Ray player, HD DVD player, and still have an input left over. It also has three component video inputs (two rear, one front), a front USB connection so you can display up to five-megapixel photographs, and two A/V inputs with S-Video. It has a Dolby Digital/PCM output and an analog stereo output.
The WD-65733 is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.

Poor color tuning & a hum.......2007-12-20
I bought this Mitsubishi to replace a smaller Sony HDTV and had it for three days before returning it. There were two problems:
First the TV cast a very noticable blue cast on dark colors including people's hair, walls, and virtually anything dark. There is little black or gray. There are three factory settings for color adjustment: Brilliant the default factory setting, which cast the blue cast, bright, and natural. The best picture is the brilliant, and to get rid of the the blue one has to go to a very dim "natural" picture. If I wanted to watch a dim picture I could buy a used standard definition TV for virtually nothing. The set has great color controls, but no matter what I did, including lowering the blue drive I could not get rid of the problem.
The hum many others have commented on starts out low and after an hour is very noticable. I had no such problems with the Sony, and I also have a Samsung, both of which had no problems like this.
I bought a Toshiba 65" to replace the Mitsubishi, and I could immediately tell the picture was going to be great.
Buy at your own risk.
GREAT TV.......2007-12-18
THIS IS A GREAT TV, I HAD DISH NETWORK HD INSTALLED AND WOW WHAT A PICTURE I HAVE READ SOME OTHER REVIEWS ABOUT THE HUMMING NOISE BUT I DONT GET THAT NOISE AND THE PICTURE ON JUST RABBIT EARS IS SUPERB AS WELL.
great buy.......2007-12-18
Very happy with tv. Incredible picture. Researched the noise thing and rolled the dice, my unit's fan can't be heard.
Great picture but with some caveats.......2007-12-09
I recently purchased this set and here are my initial observations
THE PROS
HD Picture Quality
This set has stunning HD picture quality. I find myself sometimes looking at programs I wouldn't otherwise be interested in just to see all the amazing details. Like other high def sets, especially large ones, non HD programming definitely tends to look worse than an analog TV. Fortunately, the remote allows you to instantly switch to smaller formats if you find the pixelation too annoying. Depending on your room, you may also be able to sit further away from the screen but this loses some of the immersive quality for which you presumably bought such a large screen.
Size
Kudos to Mitsubishi for achieving such picture quality on such a large screen while maintaining a depth of less than 16". I am able to fit this TV nicely inside my entertainment center just as if I had bought a much more expensive flat screen plasma or LCD.
Three HDMI Slots
This is a plus over sets with only two although, of course, I would like to see 4 or five slots. Why HDMI ? HDMI gives you the highest quality so choosing perpherals with HDMI output makes sense if you want to take advantage of this set's picture quality. Why so many ? Well, ideally you would have one for:
1)cable or satellite box
2)DVD player
3)HTPC
4)Camera Dock with HD output (e.g. the Kodak Z812)
5)Camcorder Dock with HD output (e.g. Sanyo HD1000)
I also like the fact that you can hide unused inputs and customize their names.
Value
I believe this is a transitional period in the high def TV market so spending a lot of money doesn't make sense as next year you will get it for 1/3 or 1/2. However, sacrificing picture quality to keep it cheap also doesn't make any sense as does waiting another five years for the market to mature. This set provides a good quality to price ratio with a decent set of features right now.
THE CONS
Motion Blur
Significant pixelation during moving scenes. Given the spectacular HD images when the picture is relatively static, it is especially jarring. I will confess I haven't yet taken the time to research this,especially to see if it is any worse or better than other DLP sets of comparable size.
There could be many factors involved: the inherent magnification resulting from viewing such a large screen from a relatively small distance, the fact that my cable box only puts out 1080i, the content itself. I will need to investigate further and if I find anything, I will add more comments.
Cooling
Others have talked about a whine. Some have said they don't hear it. I can say there is definitely fan noise. This thing has a lamp comparable to a searchlight and thus needs some heavy duty cooling. Most likely the reason for the varying comments is the fact that the fan is temperature controlled. The hotter the lamp gets, the faster the fan goes. At higher speeds I can see how this might be perceived as a whine. At lower speeds it's just a hum. Also, typically, in my case at least, the noise is masked by other things. For example, my HDR's drive seems to always be spinning and, of course, the TV sound itself typically masks the noise. I probably wouldn't have noticed it except for other reviewer's comments sensitizing me to it. However, it's currently cold here so the fan is running at its low speed, I will have to wait for summer to see if it really becomes a whine and also to see if I have the problems with the unit shutting down due to temperature.
Sound
The sound from this TV is pretty bad. Looks like it was an afterthought.
(Note: at a minimum, be sure you go in and crank up the bass and treble settings. This offers at least a small improvement). Additionally, to minimize the front real estate dedicated to speakers, they are only given a slot through which to radiate the sound. The common wisdom is that you'll be hooking it up to AV system so it doesn't matter. I disagree. A home theater system is great when you're watching a movie or other "big screen" show but just watching the evening news with surround sound and a subwoofer is, at least for me, sensory overload. Also, yoking the set to an AV system for all TV watching is an inconvenience. You either need to select multiple devices in sequence to turn them on and adjust volume, have multiple remotes or use a fancy remote like the Logitech Harmony. Even with the Harmony (which I got for free from Vann's with this set), powering on/off multiple devices is not practical given that they use the same code to power themselves on and off. If you don't have the remote pointed just right (or the battery is low), one will turn on. When you press the on button again, the first will turn off and the second on.
At the very least, they should provide a switched outlet and an audio out that tracks the volume control like my old Sony XBR did. If they did that, at least you could buy some powered speakers and put them under the TV as a permanent replacement and they would be completely integrated with the set. Unfortunately, the Mitsubishi's audio output does not track the volume setting and there's no switched outlet so I'm still trying to figure out what to do.
Vertical Bowing on Left Side
I have learned that, without a trained eye at least, you will probably not see bowing or other forms of geometric distortion on one of these large sets unless you are displaying something with a high contrast horizontal or vertical line. You can check for horizontal bowing,at the bottom of the screen in a store at least, by asking the store sales person to put on a news program that has a ticker at the bottom. Based on this I discovered that the Samsung 6176S, which I almost bought, had significant distortion at the bottom. There was nothing in the store to reveal vertical distortion so I only discovered it when I got home and displayed the channel guide from my cable box. I got more experience with it when I hooked up my Mac Mini. The screen with the Mac mini is gorgeous but there is a slight bow on the left side of the screen only.
CONCLUSIONS
One might ask why I bought this TV given all the cons. The simplistic answer was that, for the choices currently available on the market, the pros outweighed the cons. My top priorities were the three pros: Excellent HD picture, slim cabinet, good value.
One of my principal reasons for upgrading to an HD set was to use it as part of an HTPC where I could access the internet, view all my photos and videos etc. I also wanted a big screen to get a true immersive experience and finally, wanted it to fit nicely inside my entertainment system cabinet to help streamline and remove clutter from my room (my previous proj TV stuck out 6"). With the exception of the slight vertical bow at the left, this set does a great job at all of these.
If money were not an issue, I could have gotten this terrific quality and size without any of the bad points by buying a top of the line LCD but that was not an option. As I mentioned earlier, I don't think this is a good time to spend a lot of money on one of these TV's. Instead, I believe I will be happy with this for the next four or five years. After that I should be able to buy a comparable LCD TV with all the good points and none of the bad, and probably for less than what I paid for this set.
Disappointed.......2007-12-06
TV was delivered damaged. Amazon and Eagle delivery were great in taking the product back and refunding my money fast. However, this was a blessing in disguise as I ended up purchasing the Samsung HLT-6187 and wow!!! So do yourself a favor and spend the extra couple of hundred bucks for the Samsung (no color wheel to burn out!)

Excellent quality for price.......2007-01-09
I lost my old Antenna in a move I made, and finally found an inexpensive replacement here. It was on a heavy discount so I was a bit nervous when I first made the purchase, but I am very pleased with it's performance so far. I have better range and the data transfer rate is much better now than your standard anetenna that comes with most PCI wireless cards from my own experience. It also has the ability to be mounted up against a wall, and it also has a magnetic base so it can stick to a metal surface and you don't have to worry about it falling over. My only compliant is that some might need a longer extension wire, but I am fortunate in that I do not. In order to extend it you will need to get creative. If it were not for this I would give the antenna a full 5 stars in this review.
I am very pleased with this, and would recommend it to anyone looking to increase their wireless experience at an affordable cost. I found this especially true if your current setup is under-performing for your networking needs, you have a tight budget, and you don't need a longer wire between the antenna base and your computer.
Excellent for desktops.......2006-11-07
This antenna increased the signal strength of my desktop's wireless card by 20 dBm. This is partly due to the gain, and partly due to the ability to place it in a better location than a normal antenna.
For those frustrated with a desktop disconnecting from wireless because the antenna is stuck behind the computer itself, this is a great solution.
It's also aesthetically pleasing, for those who are going to have it prominently displayed on their desk.
The only drawback is that it has a 4' cable that is permanently attached to the base, so that it can't be replaced with a longer cable, so extension cords are needed for very creative placement.
