Preface (I'll try to keep this short):
My current TV is a 52" Samsung LCD (~6yrs old w/CFL backlight). I bought a house last year and coming from an apartment, the screen seems a little small in the new place...
The Sammy actually has a beautiful picture, but I've decided it's time to upgrade.

I'm trying to keep the price <$1000. I found this 60" LG Plasma for $700:

MicroCenter has great prices on TV's so while shopping online I found this for $900:

Granted, it won't solve the size problem, but it's not a gimped 30hz refresh panel, and the nerd in me loves the idea of 4K!

I do have a few concerns about this 4K TV though...
1) Not sure how my Emotiva UMC-1 would handle the signal
2) It's an off brand, so quality and performance are questionable
3) There aren't really any 4K sources right now. I'd assume it up converts, but I didn't see anything in the specs stating that it does.

Of course I'll make this decision myself, just looking for opinions...
