[QUOTE="Thomas G, post: 2533, member: 428"]Hi DPS, not sure if you're still looking for a TV. Thought I'd offer my $.02. With Plasma television sets, the more you spend, the better quality you get. One of the problems that the lower end Plasma screens have is the ability to display black and dark colors. Some are too bright, and some just look terrible! Cheaper ones also have more artifacts (imperfections) such as jagged edges and other things that makes picture quality pretty bad. If you're spending less than $1K, LCD is the way to go. I bought a Pioneer LCD for the bedroom and am currently shopping around for my main Home Theater/Family room. I'll probably go with LCD because the wife would have me sleeping on the couch throughout the new year if I spend over my budget. :) LCDs are still not quite as bright as Plasmas, but they're getting closer to matching the performance. Are there a couple of brands you're thinking about going with?[/QUOTE]
