Born2RockU Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 With a budget of $3500-$5500...what "non-projection" LCD in a 40"-50" (aren't they finally up to 50" ?) with replaceable "backlight" , should I consider...and also STAY AWAY from ? (Also,.. wholesalers that I should buy from ....and STAY AWAY from ?) ~ I want to move up to HDTV and make that big investment before X-Mas.

TauRus Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Those larger LCD panels (that's how those "non-projection" LCDs are called) are still pretty expensive, especially those that are 45" and more. Some 40" panels sell for around $5000. Despite huge popularity, I would probably not rush to buying a Samsung LCD TV since they have subpar contrast/black levels, even for LCD panels. Besides, most of the current large size LCD panels around 40" still have 1280 x 768 WXGA resolution, which is HD, but does not give you native 1080p still. One of the second tier LCD brands, Syntax, is prepping a 37" LCD TV with a 1920x1080 resolution at below $3000 MSRP for a release later this year. At this point it is not known what PQ this display will provide. Hopefully it will be comparable to the first tier LCD products.
