The image is only going to be as good as your source.

That said, let's look at a few things.

If it's the DVD you're not happy with, there are some options. First, are you using a progressive-scan DVD player? Using progressive inputs will make for a much cleaner picture. You'd need to be using component inputs, though. The DVD player should be set to widescreen mode. In this mode, viewing the image on a normal 4:3 TV would show you tall, skinny people. on your 16:9 TV, though (when the TV is in "expand" mode) it stretches the sides out to make it the correct dimensions. See page 60 of your manual.

Are you displeased with your cable/satellite? Assuming it's not an HD signal, you're options aren't that great. Check out page 61...

Your TV will really shine when you get an HD source.
