Need a Good Quality TV...Who Makes One??
Just got a Xbox Kinect & all the goodies, but the current TV is to small, so we need to get a larger TV.....will be turning the downstairs game room into a TV room for the Kinect....
Who makes a good quality 40inch TV...that will be great with Xbox games & movies along with HD TV... Don't want to spend 3 arms a the left nut, but something that's quality without being ubber expensive.... |
we got a 55inch lg led 1080p tv for like 9ish. I've never seen a picture quite like it. colors and clarity are just amazing
|
Check out Newegg and CostCo for some deals.
Last summer my wife and I picked up a 46 inch Samsung 120Hz 1080p with multiple HDMI inputs, HDTV tuner built in, internet ready and preloaded with apps like NetFlix, etc., for around $1200 so it should be cheaper now. It has the EdgeLit (the entire edge around the TV lights up) and I think it's an LED TV. Blu-Ray, HDTV, and PS3/XBox graphics are absolutely stunning on this thing. It makes DVD looks like VHS. |
I spent several months working for a friend that needed help with his electronics recycling business. I've taken apart 1000's of TV's and none are built like a Sony. They have a great picture as well. I'm also a fan of Samsung and Mitsubishi.

Samsung all the was for this guy. I have had 3 Samsung TV's, and have never had any issues with them. Just upgraded to bigger, or thinner.
As for Sony...:bat:. They may make a decent product, but until their customer service and friendliness of salespeople dramatically improve, I'm leaving that $hit on the shelf. |

I have all Panasonic's in my house, a 42" LCD, 55" LCD and 60" Plasma - I have no issues with picture quality or sound.
My sons Vizio is a 40" LCD I believe and all he does is gaming. His TV with the HDMI cable looks awesome. |
Re: Need a Good Quality TV...Who Makes One??
I prefer Plasmas.... Deeper Richer Colors
Check out Consumer Reports... even the high end LEDs don't rate as high as a Plasma. Sent from my DROID2 |
When you get to the bigger sizes plasma all the way. I love my Samsung plasma. Also have a vizio and a Sanyo I. The camper. The vision is awesome. The Sanyo sucks bad.
Best advice is to hit up a store that has a huge display and find one you like. |

Months ago Pioneer made the best Plasma.... since they quit making TV's Panasonic makes the best rated Plasma.
|
Get a Sony Bravia :tu:

From what I've found plasma TV's have reliability issues at higher altitudes & some can generate a high pitched whine, since we are at 6K feet ASL think we will skip them for now.
|
Panasonic rates theirs for use up to 7800 feet.
|
Out of all the LED/LCD TV's we saw and played with today Sharp & Samsung had the best picture/styling & the plasma with the best picture was a Samsung....Really liked how the Sharp plasma looked as far as picture quality.
Think we are going to go with something in the 46 to 55 inch range..... |

I cant see how having a video system is any worst for a tv then watching a movie... Now if you leave it on pause for 2 hours... ok, but otherwise the TV does not know the differance between a movie and a Xbox...
At least thats my thinking... |

Been researching this.....common thought is for the 1st 48 hours of a plasma tv's live, do not turn it off, turn the contrast down, make sure the size ratio is full screen and let it run for a minimum of 48 hours & 72 is better. As much as 10-15 min on pause or with a set background you can have screen burn in & ghost images, but new technology has way reduced this. Plasma is more fragile than LCD/LED, uses way more power and is quite a bit hotter.
