I must be nuts.

I had some free time after work so I took my parents to Best Buy. We look around and they see the 52" XBR4, it's $3,399, but they really like it.

It's directly playing the Fantastic Four BD on a Panny DMP30, the main menu looks fantastic, and I watch some of the trailers (Ice Age, Speed). Bright image, but the image looks rather "average". I tinker with the image settings and it still doesn't look quite right. We leave still in debate and part ways. I'm sitting here watching the same trailers on my ol' DLP and they look much better in an obvious way...

What's going on?

Also thanks for the suggestions, the list they have is getting long.
