Plasma issues, is it worth it?


I recently purchased an Pioneer Elite 940HD 42" Plasma and it is my first plasma. I have to start by stating that I love the picture. But, I have the following issues; 1) I use a Niles IR Repeater, the plasma emits IR and screws with it. 2)Noise, this plasma on Standard Power setting hums/buzzes to a point of annoyance. 3)Glare, I have no choice but to place the TV across from a patio door. 4)HDMI conflict with DirecTV box. I realize that 4) can occur with any TV but my question is. Is the great picture worth the trade offs? Anyone having the same issues, have you decided to go LCD? Or am I being to picky?

I just got the Elite 60" Plasam and find the noise you refere to pretty annoying. So, I will watch this thread to see if any one has input. I do have a Panamas 5510 Pro and I still get this noise.

I have a Direct TV HD DVR and have no conflicts with the HDMI, it all works very well togeather...

Where you put the TV is your choice - hang a drape for the patio door....see my system: I too have it place right across from a slider,

Good Luck, John
