I just bought a new 60" Sony SXRD after researching HDTVs for the past 6 months. It is about double your price range.
Considering your specifications, I believe that you will be constrained to one of the 720P HDTVs not one of the new 1080Ps. I would strongly suggest that you go to a couple of stores and look at the difference between the 720s and 1080s. As the screen size gets bigger, the difference between them is bigger. I can even see it will my tired, old eyes.
I would also suggest that the newer electronics and light engines in the 1080s is something to consider.
In any case, go look at a few different brands with different technologies.
The Rat.
M80s, VP-150, QS8s,
SVS PC 20-39+, OPPO,
Onkyo 703s, Harmony 880
