Have my HDTV shopping narrowed down a bit...

[Wulfe13]

LCD tv's are a "pass through" technology. The has to pass thru 3 LCD panels (red, green and blue). You tend to get a screen door effect.

DLP's use a microchip that has about 1,000,000 mirrors on it, that move really fast reflecting light.

LCOS are similar to LCD except the lcd panels reflect instead of passing the light thru. They tend to be the brightest of all the sets and are very smooth pictures like the DLP tvs are.

SXRD is Sony's version of LCOS with double the pixels.... smoothest picture and capable of TRUE 1080P not just 1080i.

Are you on CRACK??? Who in there right mind would go to Sam's or Costco to buy a plasma??????



The Sony SXRD 50" is the best picture you can get!!!!! It's not an LCD, it's an LCOS!!!!

Stay away from Sharps, and Samsungs, and the Toshibas are nice but they have alot of trouble with blowing bulbs....

Why don't you go here and tell them that. it's uses internal from other name brand plasma tv's and it's a good value and that thread on avsforum the top audio/video form on the net proves it. And don't talk to me like that I have not said anything to you out of the way so there really is no reason to talk to me like that, I wont let any more of your bull shit slide

[Murder after Midnight]

Oh and that Vizio is a piece of shit!!!!

If you buy a plasma, buy a panasonic!

Why is it a piece of crap they share internals?

I know you sell electronics but get off your high horse, again
there is my proof

Oh and that 50 inch sony sxrd is brillant, but it isn't the picture you can get that's subjective all technologies have there pro's and con's it's ok to perfer a style over another but to just say one is without question the best is jumping the gun a bit, especialy the way all technolgies are improving.

all i have to say is my samsung went out 1yr 8months after i bought it. i wouldnt want that to happen to anybody else.

[99Hugger]

Yea, I had heard that to...

I did a lot of research on avsforum prior to buying it. But it looked like it may have just been a defective batche of bulbs. Plus the people that were bitching about the bulbs blowing didn't say how many hours they had on the bulbs or if they were constantly being run in high power mode. I run it on low and the pic is plenty bright, no reason to even put it on high.

But, just to be safe I bought the 3 year bulb replacement warranty on it, Plus a 5 year extended in home service contract. 2 months and no bulb problems yet.

get the 50' sony sxrd, you cannot find a tv with a better picture
(son kdsr50xbr1)

a fifty footer? Is that the new Sony yacht............. j/k

[ibanez7]

samsung DLP

LCDs are great too but manufactores allow a certain percentage of pixel dropout before its coverd under warranty so you could be stuck staring at 5 dead pixels which is really annoying.

I also second the idea of an HD projector....

[D!ck]

i got my samsung back today.


i havent changed the channel in hours. Discovery HD is the shizznit. i was freakin out cuz today was the last day of my warranty. i didnt want them showing up tomorrow with an outrageous bill, for as much as the tv was new. it all worked out, im lucky.




oh ya dont buy samsung.

[Danger731]

stay monitor, i hate angle fade. just cause you stand up and walk to the kitchen shouldn't mean the picture degrades.

I've been selling HIGH END electronics for 6 years.... Just cause sometihing "shares" internals, doesn't mean it isn't a POS! Alot of electronics share internals and they're still crap. Buying an expensive peice of electronics at a BULK store deserves a flaming!!!

Best receivers??? Ok, Denon, Yamaha, Pioneer Elite, and Marantz! That's the mid to high end... If you want to talk about only high end, Sunfire, Krell (seperates) and of course Mcintosh....

Any more questions?

[Mad-Max]

I have a panasonic 42" HDTV Plasma. I absolutely love it. I looked at the LCD and DLP tv's, but now that more and more manufactures are starting to make Plasmas they have come down in price alot. That's just my opinion though, you will over all deside what's best for you. Good Luck

And I have seen the TV and I was impressed that's why I recommended it, have you or are you just assuming and sams club sales samsung dlp ans sony lcd's so what's your point you want people to pay more at a high end av store, oh yeah that must be it, I dont care how long you have been selling av if you have in accurate info it does not matter, again
avsforum.com>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Wulfie

[Wulfe13]

Well if you don't want accurate info don't ask an expert... just go to Sams! Or just trust some internet guys... You don't really save money buying electronics at Sam's... plus you don't have anyone to ask about hook up or how to work it. I personally don't care if you want to buy your TV at one of those clubs. I just think the people that do, aren't too bright... JMO... my info is from experience, yours is from rumor and you THINK you know what a good picture should look like. There alot of things you should watch on a TV to know whether or not it has a good picture. But hey, if you dont want my advice and think you know better.... by all means... good luck....
