Broke after 3 years

Totaly dead after 3 years. Nice picture and sound, but I expect something I spend over 1500 on to last much longer.

My Panasonic PT-51HX41 broke in just over 2 years

My Panasonic PT-51HX41 broke in just over 2 years. It is $500 to fix and the repairman says that the problem with the amplifiers and resisters on Panasonic TVs are common. Why no recall? Avoid big screen panasonics!!!!

Product Specifications

Panasonic's Projection TVs offer big entertainment for your family, right at home! You'll experience incredibly sharp picture quality, brilliant color and resonating sound all for which Panasonic is world-renowned. Each model includes standard features for amazingly clear and detailed images, impressive stereo sound and enhanced, vivid color quality - all at a viewing size that holds everyone captive! Above are just a few immediate benefits that you will experience from the Panasonic CinemaVision 56HX41 projection television. Capable of upconverting 480i (interlace) to 480p (progressive), reproducing standard definition 480p scan images or reproducing high definition 1080i images, this HX series projector is ready for the future. Images are clear because of equal brightness across the screen - no center screen hot spots - as a result from using glass front surface mirrors, seven-inch high-resolution picture tubes and five-element hybrid lenses. And a built-in acrylic screen protector ensures that one of the most important part of a projection TV - the tinted screen - remains safe from fingerprints and scratches.
