Side_Show_BoB Posted December 4, 2007 Share I would suggest the Sony V series 32" and can come in at around 10k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malkie Posted December 4, 2007 Share Go to Stax they got some good deals at the moment,LCD not so good for live broadcasts,tend to have a slight image drag.LCD perform better in bright light and plasma better in low light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted December 4, 2007 Share You would rather want to purchase a plasma. Plasma screens can be viewed from any angel which is the big advantage over LCD screens. LCD screens also have picture clarity problems with direct sunlight. Disadvantages of plasma screens is that they have a limited lifespan and image burning onto the screens is common when viewing static pages for long periods of time. Hope this helps - oh and expect to pay more for a plasma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma Posted December 4, 2007 Share Here is an article which gives you the difference between the 2. http://www.practical-home-theater-guide.com/plasma-vs-lcd-TV.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted December 4, 2007 Share What is the "HD"? i think anything bigger than a 42" will look odd against the wall. How do you "measure" the size of the screen against the size of the wall, what I mean, how do you know the size of the tv should be. You dont wanne overkill on the size and its overwhelming.popeye2007-12-04 07:43:12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamm Posted December 4, 2007 Share LCD,LCD,LCD! Plasma is tired. If you are playing games or running DSTV/PVR - you will get screen burn on a plasma. Put aside a bit of extra cash and make sure you go for Full HD (1080p) insteak of (1080i). This will keep your telly usable for a longer period. Sony is probably best with Samsung shortly after. - IMO. If you have P3 or HD-DVD only Full HD is acceptable. For reviews check Amazon.com Samtech in Montague Gardens (around the corner from cycle factory) do Samsung in Cape Town. Not sure if it is only service, but they may also be able to order for you as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted December 4, 2007 Share HD = High Definition, just a different way in which TV is broadcast - simply put Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underachiever Posted December 4, 2007 Share LCD currently on par with PLASMA, and getting better. Go for broke and get yourself a full HD LCD Samsung at R23k (42") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American Flyers Posted December 4, 2007 Share Make sure it has HD because in few years time SABC, DSTV company will convert to HD, so normal television will not work. Rather put money now than throw it away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brakkies Sport Fotos Posted December 4, 2007 Share more info: No I'm not in the games playing thing. dont have a P3 Got a DVD, Mnet decoder and a DSTV decoder, with a sound system through the output at the back of the TV. Nothing special like games or that stuff Maruis is talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
