For $300, I recommend the Magnavox P27s55. It is 27", has a flatter screen(not true flat), black matrix,comb filter, 600 line resolution, AND COMPONENT INPUT.(Also, S-video, and Composite). It has an attractive high tech silver cabinet. It's available on Bluelight.com for $299.95 or at your local K-Mart for $319.95.
Best TV for approx. 300? 25"-"27
I need a new TV for the bedroom, I do not need bells and whistles, picture would be first of importance.
I am not fixed at 25"-27", I could consider smaller. (Actually, my wife would prefer a smaller TV, but you know us guys, we want to go for the bigger version!)
I went to Circuit City last night planning to purchase a Panasonic, I have heard good things on their longevity. I was specifically going there for the CT-27G6, $289. I left with a JVC AV-27D302, $349. The JVC showed much more detail IMO and all the Panasonics I looked at seemed dark, the JVC simply seemed to have the better picture, except it was a bit grainy. I thought, maybe foolishly, it was just a store issue.
The one I brought home seems to be a bit grainy as well. There seems to be a flaw in the picture, so I am planning on returning it, but I am not ruling out exchanging it for the same TV.
I was just seeking the collective wisdom of this forum.
Thanks
