So Who Here Owns A HD Tv ??
 

Are the ones out just now a vast improvement, or are they a bit over-hyped ??

Been looking around but no sure what to go for. :upsidedow

I have a Samsung HD Plasma and I love it :)

Sopranos look so awesome in HD!

DH

What size of screen did you go for ??

I was a bit suspicious when i saw that HD channels will be starting up, and wondered what this meant for everything else that wasn't originally meant for HD.

I guess everything shows up well on it though... :)

54" Plasma

---> HD is great...but the normal channels look extra bad because you can just see how dated regular tv broadcast is.

Also, DVD's don't fully take advanage of HD yet..

But HBO HD, TNT HD, ESPN HD....all are great :thumbsup Wish there was more programming though


It just has to do with if you have 1500-4k to blow on a TV :1orglaugh

I watch a lot of TV though in my off time :winkwink:

I have a 52" RCA HDTV i love it~

I bought a HD plasma with HDMI for my bedroom (wall mounted) and I have directTV, its a widescreen ... I was going to get a wide screen 50 in to replace my current bigscreen but dont think I will now unless I can find a normal shaped one. I do not like the wide screen. HD channels are awsome, regular shows are kinda streched and looks funny. you can go into the menu and change the settings to make it square, but who wants to do that everytime. Also using the HDMI cable really does make a difference over not using them.

I have an ambilight one, what a waste of money, half the channels dont broadcast good hd quality movies. they replay movies from the 80s like goonies.. Only good for DVDs.

Should be better by the end of this year (supposedly) Pipecrew.

I've got a 50" Gateway. Scary thing is they stopped producing them. I haven't had any problems with mine so far. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Yeah that was my main concern...

But didn't you know that beforehand? I mean, on digital cable where I am there are maybe 10-15 HD channels but everyone knows that...right?:Oh crap

the best HD channels are Discovery and PBS

Isnt it amazing how you find yourself watching a special on mating rituals of bumble bees just because its in HD? :1orglaugh

dont even get me started on those documentaries...those things are time suckers:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh Kinda true!! lolol

I love it for the quality when watching movies. :thumbsup

And amazingly...i would never be interested in watching the same mating ritual in REAL LIFE....but its HD so I HAVE TO! :1orglaugh

I own 4 hdtv's
1 HD projector with 100" screeen 1 50" pioneer elite 1 samsung 30" widescreen in my office and a philips 24" widescreen in my bedroom.

where was HD when sex ed classes were around?:1orglaugh

51" Hitachi in my living room, 32" Hitachi in my bedroom. I have EDTV in my office but the quality is not the same.

I absolutely love the HDTV quality and yeah, I find myself scanning for documentaries and the like because seeing an underwater program you'll think you're underwater yourself!

I'm waiting for the Speed Channel to go high def.

I can't imagine NOT having HD....I'm very spoiled by it. I get so pissed off when TV shows aren't broadcast in it! lol.

Gotta love the Hitachis....we have 2 big screen Hitachis and we love the brand to death. Great quality stuff.

No kidding....Just think of that "Miracle of Life" film they used to show...You could have practically felt a splash in your face when her water broke!:thumbsup

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Yes, they surely do. Everything looks good in HD.

Love my plasma.

We just got HDTV--haven't had much of an opportunity to use it though...I'll let ya know ;)

HD is the way to go. You have to buy one. You will love it.

47 in hdtv panasonic love love love my tv

Holy shit !!!!! :warning

There is nothing wrong with my existing TV. Why do I need an HDTV? Because everyone else has one or worships thier friend's one? I dont get the whole HDTV thing. I guess probably has something to do with the fact that I dont have much time for TV to begin with and I also find it rather boring.

i got one of these, the HD looks great:
Mitsubishi Diamond Series WS-7511
(search google)

i just got screwed with when i bought it, now everything for the same price is half as slim, even the ones that arent flat screens. DOH!

I do.

night and day from straight up digital.
