Got this TV a week ago, and I have to say I'm very impressed. I was originally planning on putting in a ceiling-mount projector with an 80" screen, but I saw a huge price drop on the 73835 and ordered it through Electronics Expo... after I placed the order, they called me and said they had oversold it and upgraded me to the new 73837 for the same price! Great customer service. A few things about the TV: It's big and bright! It comes set on "brilliant" picture mode, which is horrible. I usually calibrate my TV's as best I can with Video Essentials or Avia, but this model has an in-depth picture adjustment menu with ISF level adjustments. There are two advanced picture presets and the second one looks perfect to me. Had a bunch of people over for the Penn State-Iowa game this weekend and they could not believe how real the game looked. I bought the Bell'O AVSC-9870 stand for it, which fits it perfectly and is selling cheap on Amazon right now. (note, this stand looks fabulous, but is not very deep. If you have big audio components, they may not fit). If you scroll halfway down the page for that stand you can see the Mitsu sitting on it. The TV is not very heavy, but it's awkward to move. The remote is a waste. Most people don't use their TV's remotes anymore, so I won't knock it for that. The menus are not very intuitive, but other than that, I have no other problems with this set. The built-in speakers sound pretty decent, but I'll never have them on. It looks awesome with Blu-Ray and PS3 games, but up-sampled DVDs show their lack of resolution at this screen size. The screen non-reflective, which is a nice change from my 57" Toshiba that you could see everything reflecting on. The lamp is easy to replace yourself, with a pull-out cartridge in the back, unlike older TVs where you had to get a service tech to do it. A replacement bulb is $99 from Mitsubishi, but you shouldn't need one for a few years. It does lack picture in picture, but I'm not too keen on that anyway. All in all, I'm really pleased with this TV, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a big screen for a lot less than a similar sized flat panel. For a more in-depth review, Home Theater magazine reviewed it in their latest issue and gave it 4 stars for value.
The Mitsubishi WD-73837 Is The Best DLP I've Owned

We've owned a few Mitsubishi's over the years simpy because they've been so reliable and last forever. Our old WD-62725 DLP got moved downstairs to make way for our new WD-73837 DLP.
We'd always been impressed by the 62725's picture quality and expected the new WD-73837's picture to certainly be an improvement based on it's newer technology. What we didn't expect was the absolutely stunning picture quality the WD-73837 delivers. With its crisp picture and incredible colors it's just like looking out of an open window minus the smells in the air. Because of its great picture HD movies take on an almost 3D-ish quality.
One of the reasons we decided to stay with another DLP is because of the ability to see the screen even at a high angles off to the side so we could watch it from our kitchen. This TV doesn't disappoint and is viewable even at 60-70 degrees away from the screen.
I can't comment on the WD-73837's speaker sound quality as we have it hooked up through our entertainment system's speakers.
In conclusion we'd highly recommend the Mitsubishi WD-73837 DLP to anyone looking for a seriously good TV.
