The TV price is no problem for me , I want buy a very good HDTV for household usage,I can not select between SONY BRAVIA LCD TV & PANASONIC PLASMA TV, size 40 to 42 inch. please guide me without propagandistic aim.

I’m looking to spend around $1000. The size is dependent on the price. I thinking a 42 inch or the next size up. I’m not a gamer, just watch alot of action and sports. What kind is the best value for the money? I plan on consulting Consumer Reports, but any opinions on the matter would be greatly appreciatted.

I need help trying to decide on which TV to purchase. I have narrowed my search down to 2 LCD HDTV’s
42 inch Sharp Aquos 720p LCD HDTV
42 inch Insignia ( best buy brand ) 1080p
Which one do u think will out perform the other? I have a HD DVD player and a Pioneer surround sound, and Xbox 360 console., that will be hooked up to this.

I have a PS3 , Blu-ray dvd , and i have 2 choices of LG Tvs to choose :

I just bought a new 42 inch lcd tv I connected the hdbox that comcast gave me and more often than not I have to have the volume almost all the way up to hear anything I also have an xbox connected to the same tv and have the same volume issue out of the alternate input. Does anyone have any ideas is this just how tv’s are made now so people will have to go out and buy surround sound speakers etc. I bought this television at circuit city and I bought the extended warranty but who knows if that is even any good anymore.
My television is connected through an hdmi cable only

the pc is a compaq presorio sr1923wm and the tv is a LG 42 inch lcd 1080 and it has a vga jack but it says rgb(pc) on the back of the television the pc is only 2yrs old and it came with a hp 19 inch lcd

I’m looking for a good 42 – 47 inch hdtv for my new apartment primarily for gaming (xbox360 and wii). Should I get an LCD or Plasma screen tv? I’m concerned about glare, and I don’t want any of that “hdtv lag” that some tvs have with guitar hero or amplitude. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Also, it has to have a good refresh rate. I don’t want any ghosting.

I have a new vizio 42 inch lcd tv. It is connected with a hdmi cable. I traded this tv in at walmart for my old broken one that had this same problem. When watching tv my screen will fade to black and finally no picture will show until i turn it off and turn it on but the sound will play. Could it be my hdmi cable or should i bring it back and exchange it again to walmart?

For a Plasma TV , say with dimesions of 40 to 43 inches , what is the maximum resolution ( in pixels ) that it can reach ?

Is this maximum resolution limited by the inherent limits of Plasma technology ?

A case example : an X brand 32 inch LCD TV can reach resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels , whereas by comparison, a Plasma TV of 42 inches can only reach resolutions of 1024 x 768 pixels .

Why is this so ?

I am planning to buy a 42 inches LCD the contrast ratio is 550:1 does this matter?
