If you’re after a big, bright, rear-projection LCD HDTV monitor, Zenith’s 60-inch D60WLCD is optimized for widescreen (16:9 aspect-ratio) high-definition images. Being no deeper than most 19-inch CRT sets, the D60WLCD is idealisti for home theaters and anyplace where space is a concern. The set features integrated dual NTSC tuners and extensive connection panels and accepts HDTV, SD, and NTSC video roots from external devices.
Three internal LCD panels, augmented by a nine-element lens system, delivers superb 1280 x 720p resolution, intensified by aspect-ratio correction, an innovative 3D Y/C comb filter that digitally controls and separates color (chroma) and picture (luminance) information, a peak luminance of 680 candles/square meter, a contrast ratio of 200:1, generous 100 x 30-degree watching angles, and the comfortableness of picture-in-picture, picture-outside-picture, and split-screen capabilities. DVD mastering introduces a mutual distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; the D60WLCD’s 3:2 pulldown detection digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant selective information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.
Audio features include Zenith’s EZ Sound dynamic bass and two built-in 15-watt speakers, while it is connection panel accommodates all general video formats. Front-panel video input jacks let you hook up a camcorder or gaming console, while a 15-pin RGB input handles a digital set-top box. Projection LCD sets are free from two worries that plague traditionalisti projection sets: phosphor burn-in, which may imprint “ghost” images on the screen when it holds a static effigy too long, and convergence faults (discrepancies in beam alignment), which require a service technician to come to your home and realign the projection picture tubes. LCD projection televisions don’t require alignment, so you don’t have to plan for this kind of service.

 LCD Projection Screen Benefits
By Timothy L. Karsjens
During the procedure of buying goods for a new HDTV, I was dead set on getting a plasma or LCD huge screen. After seeing this TV in a local store, I was floored by the picture quality, which was better than Plasma or flat screen LCD.
Here is the deal with Plasma versus this TV. The LCD projection engineering science is solid, with brights and darks coming through without pixelation or loss of clarity. The Plasma technology is still new, and more often times than not, there are issues with the picture of an lowcost plasma, including bright darks and washed out colors. This LCD Projection screen nails all of the things that make a TV great and it has a little footprint. Plasma? I would rather spend the cash on this, than three times the price for a plasma that is not up to snuff.
If you wish to have a full review of the gains of the LCD projection versus the plasma, check out a great deal of of the reviews …

 Great Value!
By technojunkie
Just got the set couple of days ago. 1)It DOES NOT take 2 minutes to “warm up” it is on wholly bright at 15 seconds or so. I haven’t seen it with an HDTV source yet but I may tell you that a “superbit” DVD looks stunning. It likewise looked very crisp with my XBOX hooked up. The EZ picture formatting is great for stretching the 4:3 TV signal (i like the 2nd zoom best) there are a great deal of inputs on the back and the set has lots of nice features (pic in pic, pic out of pic, 3 window channel scanning)
You may view the display at almost 180 degrees and it doesn’t “black out” like an LCD panel. Don’t be disappointed if a usual TV signal doesn’t look “stunning” I think it’s just the nature of the beast. It still looks beauteous good. I am anxious to switch over to “the dish” so i may get HDTV. Oh yeah, it’s light (for a huge set) 135 lbs. you may in truth move the damn thing if you need to! Aesthetically the set is pretty to look at even when it is turned off. My bestloved thing is to put 2 big pictures side by side and watch the main channels (coming straight from the cable) and then “surf” the cable box channels and the window besides it. This may be done by piping the cable box output into a video input. I was very hesitant buying the tv sight unseen but am very pleased. BTW, you may go to the Zenith internetlocation and download the PDF manual for the set, that is very helpful. Finally saw picture in HDTV and it was STUNNING. Downside, NO DVI INPUT! DVI is apparently the newer pure digitial uncompressed connection (a little more prominent than an RGB jack) Newer TVs have them WHY DOESN’T THIS ONE? That’s the only drawback I may think of. The HDTV picture into the RGB jack still looks fantastic.

 Good while it lasts, terrible to repair
By Freddie
The TV is great while it lasts in my case two years and then devised the blue spot and green/yellow tinge. Every other negative revue posted here seems to be in the same boat. I was cited $2995 for the repair. Clearly if everyone that has purchased this TV is having the same problem then there is a design fault and we ought to have our TVs substituted with a comparable non defective product, like that will ever happen. $3,000 to watch this TV for a mere 2 years and it is now cost prohibitive to repair. Shame on zenith, I will never buy another zenith product again.
