TV setups

[scott5]

Well i am getting ready to start my move back to pa on the 20th and decided i need to upgrade my tv and leaving it here for my roomates. Its an old 32 in HAHA.. So i need something to put in my living room at my new place. i dont want to go less than 42in and i dont want to spend more than 1200.. So what kind of tv/stand setups do you have? I want to be able to mount on a wall once i stop leasing. So throw up some pics and info thanks...

If you got one for sale let me know also:awsome:

whats the 720p mean?


thats the resolution, 1080p is the best you can go right now
1920×1080
1024 x 768 is 720p
i have a 720p 36inch vizio thats a nice tv too but it doesnt hold a candle to the 1080p 120 Hz

heres the two 1080s

oh and the hertz i keep talking about is the refresh rate, how many times it changes the image on the screen, the 120 changes it way more often so it like completely eliminates motion blur

[Inkdcountryboy]

do you like your vizio? i keep hearing bad things about them.. always getting returned and stuff. i have a rca

[jaa55]

love it, for the price its an awesome little tv
the sonys put it to shame but they were like triple the cost of the vizio so it doesnt bother me

[94svtcobra]

I just picked up a 32 inch dynex for 400, its a cheaper brand, but it looks good for the price

You get what you pay for, but you won't miss the higher quality THAT much, especially when you leave $2000 extra in your pocket....

I bought my 52" RCA projection tv about 3 or 4 years ago - 1080i, HDMI, a good tv at the time - but by today's standards, its extremely outdated.... However, my brother just bought a brand new 46 or 48" plasma, and even though the picture is a little nicer and brighter and all, IMO, its not worth all the extra money... I'm extremely happy with mine, and will not buy another one until this one dies.... The only thing I don't like is that its a traditional projection, meaning its one of the huge ones with the base and everything.... All in all, i'm extremely happy with it - there's a reason I haven't gone out and bought a new one

[fastfox91]

i got a 50" toshiba the other day for free. its projection, but for the money its the best imo lol

gah i payed that much for my 37in 720p this summer

[Stangman701]

That one is a refurb so it brings the price down a good bit. I checked that part # at stores online and they were around $1049-$1099. Still thinking about buying it though cause I'm in the market for a HDTV as well.

[jaa55]

i bought my last computer from tiger direct refurbished, lasted me 4 years no problems using it constantly finally sold it to someone else and as far as i know still works good. thats a real deal

[blkp42e]

My tv i got was a floor model and i just picked up the warranty and i was still under what it would have costed new,

[Rodeheaver's]

this is waht i have ,its a 42" panasonic, i just started to build the dvd player and audio equipment into the wall, its not totally done yet, but i really love it and it gave me tons of room in the living room, i also think this is the perfect size tv, my brother has a 60" and it is way to big, it is hard to watch its so big, the 42" seems to be just about right. And its totally awesome when i play need for speed pro street on it!!

[chevydad]

we just bought a 46" samsung 1080i for $1049. here was what i know. i can not see a difference between 720 or 1080i on normal programs and movies. i'm told 1080 is what is needed for blue ray. so if your not interested in blueray then go with the 720 to save some $$$. the second thing is if you like alot of action movies or anything with fast movements then definately go with a 120hz. it is very noticable. or look into a plasma. after searching and looking for 2 weeks the samsung always had the best picture in all store displays. most sony's were very close/similar.

here is what i would recommend. best buy has the no interest deal but if you have bad credit then thats a no go. sears had a deal that was 10% off any samsung tv that was 999 or more.

[94REDGT]

best buy has a panasonic 42 inch 1080p plasma for 1099.00 they will match prices with anyone consumer reports rated the panasonic plasma and the pioneer as tops the samsung for lcd

[badf250]

For plasma, can not beat pioneer, but they are $$$$$$. I bought a 40" Samsung and I am very happy with other than I could but it now for a couple hundred cheaper. I originally wanted a Sony, but side by side , the samsung looked better. Liked the Samsung TV so much, I bought a matching 7.1 Ch home theater for it.

[blizzard]

i just got an email the other day from CompUSA for a 52" LG for $1300...
