HDTV?
Sorry to ask the question here but I'd like to know which is better/worse and why.
I'm going to be buying a new TV this weekend and I'm looking in the 46' - 50" range. Any bigger and I'm afraid it will take over our living room.
Any help?
Thanks in advance.
(Need HD for the prons)

i have a 52" not as big as you'd think, not bulky or in the way at all

if you are gonna go that big, i would get plasma
they run hotter and take more elec but the colors and contrast cant be beat.
also, on most LCDs, look for resolution not just inches. I have 46 inch LCD and i can see pixelation from 10 ft away.
as for DLP, its just brighter projection tv. it still has viewing angles and cant see shit during the day.

if you are getting a rear projection.. get LCD
if you are getting a flat panel.

e-pill i've been leaning towards samsung.
46"-50". maybe up to 55" if i find a good deal.

Morilla that's fantastic!
I like the 46" a lot.

also at most i will be 10 feet away from viewing...
as reading above i see some screens cant be seen in sunny rooms which the tv room is very sun lit...
i have an old picture tube tv that has a magnetic colour stripe on one side ...
i jsut dont know these things about technology...so i need a nudge to get my ball rolling...

samsungs are nice, but those Elite's are incredible. Go see them in person.

dont get samsung
alot of pixelation and speakers suck unless you have hifi system
alot its not bright enough during the day.

a lot meaning plasma, or lcd, or dlp??
- k0na_an0k0
E I think at most I'll be about 8 feet or less away. The way the living room is set up it's narrow and long.
No direct sunlight ever hits the tv either so I don't have that to worry about.
A lot of my buddies have the DLP and I've been really impressed but a few of my buddies are saying go LCD.
The Sony WEGA are super nice too.

i would go for sony
i had samsung and took it back for sony, its REALLY worth the extra cash
the pictures are sharp crisp and bright for LCD

i think reading posts here majority like LCD...while individuals love DLP so im not sure...

Personally I think Sharp has the LCD quality nailed. Sure they cost a bit more but the Aquos line is awesome. ..here are their latest specs on the 52"...http://www.sharpusa.com/pr...
Just walk into a store with multiple sets running, and everyone gravitates to the picture on the Aquos line ....I'm just sayin'..not getting paid or nuthin..but I just got a smaller one for the bedroom...v nice.
