Summary: Toshiba 52HM84 - One of the most frustrating purchases
Comment: The TV is good until the lamp breaks. For me this has happened three times so far, every 14 months in average. The worst is now I just bought the third lamp, paid $200, and the thing (I can't call it a TV) doesn't work. So I ended up with a $3000 purchase (this was 2004 and it came with stand) + what I paid for the lamps, and after 4 years and all this money spent I have a non functional TV and a stand. Cheating on your customers? I promised to myself: no Toshiba product ever again for me!

Summary: Love the TV but buy the extended warranty
Comment: Well we love this TV bought in 04 but have gone thru 4 bulbs. 2 bulbs the repairman confessed the last was an off brand 'generic' bulb and didn't hold up so insist on the Toshibas. THANK THE LORD we bought the extended 4 year warranty giving us 5 years and they said after the 3rd replacement they would now replace the entire TV. Our friends have the same Tv bought before we bought ours and have only had to replace one bulb and their TV is on 9am to midnight daily. Go figure.
I will check this "low" setting aka read the manual. We did buy some $300+ surge protector thing which they said would be murder on the bulbs if we didn't. So happy with Best Buys' warranty and service anyways, they really are excellent with customer service.
BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. This one is totally worth it.

Summary: Beware of the lifespan of the lamp
Comment: I bought Toshiba 62HM84 in May 2005 and already replaced 4 lamps. I really like the picture quality however the cost to replace the lamp is too expensive. Luckily I bought the extended warranty which covered the lamp replacements. We set it low light and turned on about 6 hour/day. This is the most expensive DLP HDTV unit. I will avoid buying Toshiba brand in the future.Toshiba 62HM84 62-Inch HDTV-Ready Projection DLP TV

Summary: Had mine since 10/04 and had sooooo many problems
Comment: Right out of the box I had a 2 inch black bar across my screen. After 2 months and refusal to replace the TV Toshiba finally sent a repair man to fix it. That's not all. I have replaced 3 bulbs at a cost of over $600 so far. I just recently ordered two bulbs at once to have a spair. Both dont work. Thats right both. I'm done with this piece of junk and Toshiba for good!!!

Summary: Happy with my DLP
Comment: I have a 56HMX94 DLP Toshiba, circa 2004.
It's used an average of 30-40 hours a week since new. Still original lamp, used on low power and it's never rapidly switched on/off and a/c power is pulled when bad weather is around.
I have had some intermittent issues with having to reboot the tv when it once in a while shows half a picture or a pixellated picture.
Picture quality is excellent on 720 and 1080, wish it had newer tvs ability to upconvert.
Overall I've been very happy with it.

Toshiba TheaterWide 52HM84 52 Inch Rear Projection Flat Screen HDTV DLP TV incorporates Texas Instruments DLP technology with Toshiba's Toshiba Advanced Light Engine (TALEN) to deliver an outstanding image for up to 1280x720 HDTV resolution. In addition, Toshiba adds PixelPure technology which up-converts most video signals to 720p so that virtually all TV and video programming is presented for optimal viewing (when used with HDMI inputs). DLP offers sharp, bright color display with high contrast that is far superior to CRT based rear projector TV models. In addition, this 52" 16:9 Theaterwide screen TV is less than 16 inches deep for convenient positioning on almost any table. Built-in speakers with 40 watt total SRS-Wow virtual surround and Stablesound (balances volume during commercials) help deliver a most enjoyable home-theater experience that you'll really appreciate. Built-in stereo speakers 20 Watts per channel to 2 channels stereo or SRS-WOW surround sound Illuminated multibrand-capable remote control Direct video input selection A/V inputs - 3 composite video (2 rear, 1 front) / 3 S-video (2 rear, 1 front) / 2 rear-panel HD-compatible component video (accepts 1080i/720p/480p/480i signals) / 1 rear-panel HDMI digital audio/video input with HDCP copy protection / 2 RF inputs for antenna/cable signals Unit size - 53-3/8W x 35H x 15-1/4D Unit weight - 85 lbs.
