Upgraded!! 50" 1080p Panasonic Plasma
just replacedd my 1080p Samsung lcd (lns4095d) with the new 50 panny plasma (th50pz700u)
haven't had time to take it out the box yet. but i just wanted was wondering you're supposed to break in the plasma the first 100-200 hrs am i right?
Any other suggestions or recommendations for settings? I've checked avsforum but shit its hard to weave thru all the threads there.

Burn the ISO file to a DVD.
As far as the settings on your TV, just make sure the screen is set to full (no black bars top or bottom. And make sure your DVD is set to repeat if you're going to run the break-in disc unattended.

i ended up getting the UCLX and found some spray paint at autozone to match the color of the back of the tv. The standard silver color didn't look too good...

used the powerbridge solution for the power outlet

the final product, the empty spot is for a line conditioner
and in this pix the tv does look like its not level, but the mount allows u to play around with it... it is one sturdy bracket
now im thinking about getting some polk towers like the RTI10's along with the matchin center and a velodyne subwoofer...but im not 100% sure on speakers anymore...

Mine was on chapter 300 something by the time I finally turned it off.
For the first 150 hours or so I watched Discovery HD during the day, and the break-in DVD at night or whenever I left the TV unattended.

Jesus that mount sticks out. I got a swivel arm for mine. That way when I need to access the back I move it forward. Otherwise I keep it pretty flush with the wall.
But in theory your front speaker should be flush with your screen. So you have a good basis. Just try and get the surrounds as far from the screen as you can.

well the mount can go back more, but i have it pulled out because its hard for anyone to look at it from the side, its basically even with the wall that comes out on the left side, it also makes it easier to swivel it to the right
