Mitsubishi or Sony

Any opinions on which of these would be the most satisfying TV
to start off my media room purchases? Both have HDMI 1.3, etc.
I will be adding DVD player and sound system later. Seating
will be at about 10.5 feet from the screen.

Mitsubishi, hands down. You will get a picture without the
laser bright white spots that Sony and JVC suffer from.
True color reds also, not oranges.

I don't know much about the Mitsubishi, but I have a Sony 55" and I love it.
it was really! bright out of the box, and the colors were a little off but
then I adjusted it and came up with very close settings to these used by
cnet:

(also I use it in power saver mode) And now I love the picture, I use the
HDMI input with an ATI 9600pro fed through a DV to HDMI cable, so this
avoids the bad VGA input that Sony put with the set. It also has a really
good scaler for watching 480i content

Seen way to many of the items in the brand (other than Mits) that have
encountered optic block problems already. For me the Mits woulde be the
ticket even if it were a bit more expensive.

Sony quality is the pits these days.

If you are considering either of those, you might want to take a look at
the Toshiba 65HM167. Its a great 1080P DLP, especially for the current
street price (~$1600). We sit 11' from ours, 65" is not too big.

Which one do you want?

Actually that was courtesy of me (cr500r) the one who is happy with the set,
and the VGA input is a known problem well documented in every review, it's
analog anyway.
Buy a cheap dv to hdmi cable (about $10 from newegg) and the problem is
solved
