What's the best big ass TV around?
 

I need some retail therapy. What's the best big tv around at the moment? The Sharp Aquos looks good, but 52" only :Oh crap http://www.sharpusa.com/products/Mod...8,1920,00.html

Recommendations pls. :helpme

I want one thats too cool.

Oh, i thought you were asking who has the best ass on tv...

Samsung has a 63"

Then Sony has some that like cover walls and shit.

I have a 62 inch DLP and a 40 inch plasma, and the picture on the plasma is way better.

If I could do it over I would have gotten the 50 inch plasma (biggest the store had at the time) over the DLP. I bought the DLP because it was the biggest screen in the store, and being a male I'm obsessed with size :)

:1orglaugh

Easy one, Alizee. French TV that is. Not that I'm french. Not that there's anything wrong with being french...ohcrap where's the beer.

i agree on the plasma being more colorful... i always favored the DLP until recently when I got a 42' plasma LG... thought they waste ALOT more energy

i would fucking spoon alizee.. and then 1 guy 1 girl cup her damn

I've always been put off by plasmas, because everyone craps on about picture burnout. Not a problem anymore? Think I need to go check out some of the review sites. Thought there'd be a lot of people in here who use quality stuff day in day out who could give me a real user's point of view.

LOL man the thread titles on this board take on a whole new meaning.

Big ass TV...I was clicking hoping to read about televisions, but expecting maybe to see some fat ass tranny.

I don't really know about longevity....although I will say I just had to replace the lamp in the DLP and it cost about $200 for that.

My DLP has alot more features, has HD as well...and the plasma isn't even HD capable....and still the plasma has the better picture.

Now it could just be the brand of plasma vs the brand of dlp I have....but my experience has been that plasma is superior.

there is a 70" Pioneer plasma Elite at best buy for $15k i believe. I saw a really sweet 62" Aquos at the beverly center mall in LA over the weekend

My bad, its an LG 71" http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....1759017 27868

but CHECK THIS OUT!
Sony - BRAVIA XBR 70" 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV
^^ Go big or go home! (unless u dont have $32k to spend on a tv)

That Bravia looks very sweet. Kind of doubles my allocated budget though.

:bowdown

:jerkoff

We have the Sony 70" XBR KDSR72 came out about a year ago. It has an amazing picture.

Samsung are the best nowadays..

I have a 71 inch Samsung DLP, it is 1080P and only cost me around 5K Canadian.

You can't hang it on a wall, but you can't beat the price for the size you are getting. And the picture quality is the best I have seen.

pioneer plasma looks awesome!

One Rule:
STAY AWAY FROM TOSHIBA.

Fuckers have the worst customer service ever, and their TV's are notoriously unreliable, especially DLPs.

I have the 46 and Love it. Didn't look at any larger ones.

However, I can get you a great deal on pretty much any tv you want. A close friend of mine runs on of the largest commercial installation companies in Minnesota, he saved me about $700 on my $2400 Sharp Aquos, including shipping.

ICQ if anyone is interested. I'll take a couple hundred and still save you 5. :)

HOLY FUCK !!! $32k for a tv, that's fucking crazy, ha ha.

I think that the most I'd drop on a tv would be $5,000.

I really like Samsung products, my monitor and current lcd are both Samsung, so to you, I'd have to recommend this 57 Samsung LCD http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/d...=LNT5781FX/XAA which they claim to have solved the issues of true black, I never seen one in person to tell though.

In plasma, Samsung sells a 63 incher - http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/d...d=FPT6374X/XAA which sell for $4,900-$5,500.

ROFL, ha ha, I just checked out the reviews on that since I noticed there were 5 there. The first one is like WTF ?!?, but the others are kinda entertaining, here's the best review -

Pros: Handy on the go!
Cons: Caused massive weight gain.

"I had my doubts at first, but after bringing two of these puppies home, all doubts were removed. This thing is BAD! Bad as in GOOD, folks. I hooked up HDDVDs, XBOX 360 and even my PC (Everquest) resulting in me gaining 98 lbs over a 12 week time frame. Life has actually got cheaper since the $64k purchases, believe it or not. My girlfriend has left me and friends and family hardly come over any more since the only thing I can focus on is my 70 inch GOD of ENTERTAINMENT. You might ask, "What did you do with your second one?", GOOD QUESTION. I slapped that bad boy in the dash of my 1986 Montecarlo LS (Luxury Sport). The ladies love it, I heard. Haven't actually driven it since the install since the seats had to be removed. Well anyways, I personally think the second mortgage on the house was worth it. Give it a try and tell me what you think..."

Sharp has a 65" Aquos LCD - http://www.sharpusa.com/products/Mod...8,1930,00.html

My previous TV was a panasonic and the lamp burned out at least once a year and cost a little over $300 a pop each time. What a waste :mad:


Right now I have the 50" Philips Ambilight Plasma and I really like it alot. My only complaint is I had to really tweak the settings to get the picture right on it / how I like it. There are a ton of options, which I guess is good.. just took me a while to get it set. HD is awesome- love it for the HD Sunrise Discovery channel stuff. :thumbsup
