Advice for buying an LCD TV?
I want to buy an LCD TV but don’t know where to begin. Can someone give me some advice on what TV to buy and where to buy it?
Answer #1: Vizio 37†LCD TV. Got one 24 days ago and love it. Buy from Costco if you can. They have the best return policy. My TV cost $999.000. They have a 32″ for $699.00. If your TV breaks down 6 months from now, take it back and get a new one. You do have to have a membership, $50.00 for one year. I saw the same TV at Walmart for $1500.00. My son loves it, he has xbox 360 and he’s in love. Football is the best I have ever seen, OTA HD that is.
Answer #2: So you’ve decided on LCD over plasma? As best I can tell, the big issues are:
Plasma: Truer Black, Colors “jump” a bit more
LCD: Brighter overall picture, slightly sharper image, more glare-resistant
My wife and I picked up a 46″ LCD as opposed to a 50″ Plasma, largely because we liked the way it resisted glare (our family room has A LOT of light). Look at both side to side, and decide which picture you like better. It’s purely an issue of taste, you can’t go wrong if you buy a solid TV. Make sure it has 2 HDMI inputs if you plan on watching HDTV as well as playing next-gen video games and/or DVD’s. Honestly, the main way the cheaper sets seem to let you down in their inputs.
