The Sony SXRD is a very nice display. Truthfully, it's very much like DLP, but I think they run 3 separate elements (something that costs an extra 15 grand for DLP technologies).. . Technically speaking, you may lose a bit of brightness, but you can gain gamut.. So you have all of the benefits of DLP, without the drawbacks of spinning colour wheels... at the expense of a bit of response time, viewing angle and possibly convergence accuracy.
Both DLP and SXRD are pretty much neck in neck... and while DLP may still have the slight dollars:performance edge, the SXRDs are very competitively priced. Go check them out side by side and see which one you like better.
Just don't be fooled by the shops that don't calibrate their sets. DLPs tend to come off brighter, but the colors border on cold, while LCDs may look duller, but warmer colour wise... it's akin to people putting blue tinted in their bulbs to make them look 'brighter'.
