pioneer elite pro-620hd problems

[mikes280]

anyone have any ideas, i hate to get rid of this set right now but my problem is, when i first cut it on after a min or 2 it will make a pop and cut off . I may have to cut it back on 1 or as many as 6 times by pushing the main power button on and off to get it back on , then it will stay on the rest of the time . It seams to be getting worse, is it worth fixing and if so what is the problem?

Sounds like main power supply. Not worth fixing. ANY plasma tv you buy will blow away what you have.
I would stay away from LCD tv's, they are still trying to catch up to plasma.

ok Bill i really did not want to buy a tv right now but t if i have to , mine is like 2 feet deep so if i get a flat screen it is going to be 2 feet further back and i want at least as big or bigger then i have now so what do i get

[BillR]

Get as big as you can afford. I am a huge fan of LG. Great pic and good bang for the buck. Most stores will steer you to Samsung, just don't go there.

Panasonic seems to be one a lot of people are raving about whats your thoughts on them,and is 3d worth it or just a gimmick

I have a 42 Panasonic and a 42 Runco, both are about 4 years old, at the time I bought them I wanted 2 Runco's but the dealer only had 1 in stock so I got the panasonic for the bedroom, I think the price at the time the Panasonic was 1/3 the Runco and to this day I can't tell any difference in picture quality
