Now I would like to ask everyone what they consider a good reliable HD Flat Screen TV.
I want 1080P
I would like it to be compatible with all the popular "Computer" resolutions (I am building my own Media Room Computer for use with Hulu and other Internet TV systems)
The last one we had was 52 Inch Screen a JVC HD-ILA that we loved but lightning zonked it bad! So we want that size or bigger.
It would be nice if it stood by itself but we can go wall mount if need be (we have a nice stand the 52 inch JVC fit well.)
I want something reliable and if it has lamps then easy to replace and don't cost an ARM and a LEG! I've seen some lamps as high as 370 Bucks which I think is waaaaaaaay overpriced for technology that has been around for over 120 years. (its a glorified light bulb its not rocket science...)
Thanks all in advance for your recs.
Vizio has some nice 1080/240Hz big screens. I have an older Samsung 46” 1080p. The picture is excellent however the refresh is only 60Hz so there’s pixelation during rapid picture movement.
2. Really want bigger than 60”? Look for a projector in a darkened room with a great screen. Add audio. I am partial to Screen Innovations, but their screens may cost more than your projector.
3. If you get a Visio I have heard of quality problems. Its a consumer big box brand. However, Costco does offer that 90 - day return policy ...
4. Get at least 120 Hz, high contrast and some advanced features to clean up the picture.
5. In many areas, the local cable providers are barely providing clean 480p signals, so YMMV.
6. I am partial to the name brands, especially on larger screens. Phillips, JVC, Sharp, Sony and occasionally Samsung. These are seldom cutting edge products, but service is a feature that I consider as much as anything else.
Before you purchase check with your credit card company, most gold or platinum CC’s will double the manufacturer's warrentee, call the 800 number on the back of the card to confirm..
