A/B comparisions at the store can help you figure out "what you like". Once you get them home you will like what you see, (and hear) no matter what you buy so price should be a big consideration for all but the stupid rich. The hearing part many folks miss in the decision process. What surround sound system will you add to the new toy.
Contrast ratios, brightness and refresh rates are specs you should not ignore.... not just resolution.

Am I the only one that's gonna pitch the "bang for the buck" value of an HDTV DLP???
There's smoking deals at tigerdirect for Mitsubishi 60+inch 1080p DLP's over there! The thickness is about 15inch and horizontal width of anywhere from 53+ inches. I'm hoping Santa brings me the 65inch model! ![]() |

I bought the Samsung Series 5 50" Plasma TV and the picture quality is great!! I have yet to see a LCD with as nice a picture as a Plasma. Good luck with your purchase Jon!

Biggest gripe I have with DLP's is the viewing angles. Not every room will allow proper viewing with a DLP, so it's tricky. Other than that, they offer a great picture and as long as you get en LED model, then really no worry about bulbs. |

Does anyone know what Directv broadcasts? Are they 1080 or 720?

Looks great, less filling.
Depending on where you shop, you might also want to bring along copies of some of your favorite movies so you can see how good they look on the TVs your considering. |

I have a couple 42" Toshiba plasmas and a 52" Toshiba DLP.
I love all of them. I don't like the look of an LCD at all, still haven't seen one I'd take home. Add to that, if the room is bright I can't see it.

Plasmas > LCD
The worst plasma will look equal to a mid line LCD. Enough said. And the burn-in thing is a wive's tale. Technology has overcome it. There may be IR, but that is not burn-in. I use my Plasma for gaming, and after nearly 2 years. No signs of burnin. Only thing to sway yourself to an LCD over the plasma is if you have a lot of windows in your living room, OR you have a small room that'd get too hot, too quickly. Plasmas put out a lot of heat. |

So I ended up changing my stance on the whole issue. I went with a 42" Samsung 1080p Plasma. It had great reviews and the price was right during all these crazy Black Friday deals. I also ended up getting a BluRay DVD player. I was gonna get the PS3, as it's BluRay, but I just don't play games so I saw no need to spend the extra $100. I have my wife picking it up tomorrow, as I still can't. I told her after she picks up the box, it should be the last time she touches the TV until I get home.
