Time for a new flat panel.

I have two Panasonic Viera 42" (2009 models) in the house and want to pickup a new 50+ incher for the living room.

Going to hook it up to my B+K Components AVR507 and Tannoy 5.1 system.

Saw this steal for $1,200, shipping + tax included on Amazon.com, 2010 model, I've been a Panasonic plasma fan for a while.

My father has a Hitachi Director's Series plasma at his house that he paid almost $10k for 5+ years ago, I still have yet to see a plasma/lcd that can match the clarity, vibrance, contrast, image, color, etc. of that monitor.

Panasonic P54S2 54-inch - $1,200 shipped. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036VO132)

Let's here some thoughts, opinions and links to other (possible better) products.

Looking to be within the 50" - 55" range and spend no more than $1,500 shipped for this thing. Would rather spend $1,200.
