Finally, a shot with your new Givi cases! :angry-tappingfoot:-B- said:I paid the same for this, it buzzes a little but I can't hear it at 80mph
For the rest of you, -B- and I ride the same bike, a Yamaha FZ-6, both in the faster blue color. :handgestures-thumbup: (What year's yours, -B-? Mine's an '07...)

Awwlrigght, I'm sure some of you will think I am completely off my rocker but the 2nd VT25 is being exchanged today.
I just couldn't handle the intermittent buzzing and humming. I can't even express how disappointed I am. The picture quality on this set is absolutely phenomenal, and it's almost painful to have to exchange it. Unfortunately at the altitude I'm at Panasonic won't dispatch a service tech for an intermittent buzz ( I tried more than once). :?
BB is coming today to replace the Panasonic with a 240hz LED LCD (yup, right back where I started... :angry-banghead: ).
One thing I can say is that Best Buy's customer service has been absolutely OUTSTANDING during this entire process. Kudos to them! :eusa-clap:

No, the buzzing is intermittent. I can't narrow it down to a specific thing.
It will do it at the oddest times, then not do it for hours, then do it again for hours... :angry-banghead:
Keep in mind this is 2 different sets doing the exact same thing. It's got to be an environmental thing, but I am tired of trying to isolate it. It has just worn me down trying to figure it out.
I've even tried moving the set to a different room for a couple of days (not fun, this thing is heavy!). Same exact symptom occurs. It's got to be related to my altitude, home electrical wiring and/or quite possibly my own personal hearing.
In the post above, I thought the set had magically somehow just decided to stop the buzzing, but it returned. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it.
I just think that when spending that amount of money on a set, I should not be spending weeks trying to convince myself I'm going to be satisfied, sometime, eventually....
When I had the 120hz Samsung LED LCD, the only complaint I had was the odd "soap opera" like look of the picture when viewing HD material. Once I discovered I could adjust that effect or even disable it in the picture settings menu, I was totally happy with that set. But..... I had already been looking into the VT25 at that point and had decided that it would be worth it to spend another $500 and go from a 55" to a 58" and get a 3D capable set. I just never expected to be this disappointed/frustrated by that decision. Live and learn.

Wow that sucks I did not know that the altitude could mess with a set like that.
My wife has family in Buena vista 7965 ft, looks like no Plasma for them either!
Hopefully you will enjoy your new 240hz HD
