LCD TVs
It's about time to replace this 20 year old flicker-box on the extreme right (and the big ugly wooden thing it's in).
http://server2.uploadit.org/files/timm66-desk.jpg I am thinking LCD, maybe 32-42", and hopefully not much more than around $2K. I don't need a built in tuner or speakers. I don't want any huge projection type unit as I am in an apartment I don't want to stay very long, and would hate to have to move the thing. Anyone have any suggestions or caveats? There are so many different brands and models out there. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] |

I would get this bitch right here: samsung 40"
For $2,000 retail, your options are going to be pretty damn limited. No way you are going to find a 40" for around 2k, but instead most likely 4.5k. |

Re: LCD TVs
polaroid makes a pretty good 32" for about 1500.
i bought one for my gf and while the picture isnt quite as sharp as the aquos or the samsung, its very good for the price. i think they may make one slightly bigger as well. |
Re: LCD TVs
i'm currently in the market as well, and amongst interesting things i've found is a $2300 + about $200 shipping for the 37" sharp aquos tvs on ebay. they retail (best buy) from 3500 to 3999.

Re: LCD TVs
I'll second the sentiment for the Sharp Aquos line. I was looking around a few months ago, and, while I didn't end up purchasing any TV at the time, I found that the Aquoses looked by far the best to my eye. Maybe when I start winning money at, umm, cribbage again, I'll pick one up.

Re: LCD TVs
LCD DLP's are a great value - something like this.
only 13 inches deep and about 70 pounds, so it's not a monster. everybody raves about the picture quality (better than a regular LCD). much less expensive too. if you don't need to hang it on a wall, then it's what I would go with. |
Re: LCD TVs
i dunno, but my bf & i just bought a panasonic 42" plasma for $2700.
it better be awesome! from the reviews i've read, it should be. |

[/ QUOTE ] I don't need wall mount. I will need to get a stand and I have about 5 components to put in there. Saving about $1000 is definitely making DLP look attractive. This site seems to have the lowest prices and doesn't charge tax to NY: http://www.plasmabay.com/plasma/Prod...p?SKU=HLR4266W http://www.plasmabay.com/plasma/Product.asp?SKU=LNR408D I've been leaning away from plasma, but who knows. I will have to visit some stores to see how they all compare. |
