I bought a Sony 52 inch KDLXBR2 LCD flat panel and I just love it. The price has dropped a great deal to make room for the new XBR 4 and 5 models. Truly stunning picture quality in 1080P, along with my Playstation 3 with built in Blu Ray player. I thought since you would keep this for decades, it should be something really nice.
Aaaargh. Please help Viridian select a new TV.
I barely understand audio, never mind video, but my old TV finally bit the dust and I need a new one. I can't make heads or tails out of the specs, liquid crystal, plasma, DLP, sounds like my doctor's office. 1080, 720, Blue Ray, whaaa? So here is the basic info. I sit 12' from the set, on axis, in a large room that does not have any glare or excess light issues. I watch movies on DVD frequently and tend to keep my gear for decades. I generally don't chase the SOTA, just like something reliable and enjoyable. Suggestions as to screen size, technology and brand name are greatly appreciated.
