Hey guys. Funny how life works out. I've been nagging my wife to let me get some Shrock goodies. "NO." Then I was nagging her to let me get a KLR650. "NO F$%K'N WAY." Then our 11 year old Sony 53' wide screen takes a dump and she is telling me to shop for a plasma TV. Go figure. Things have changed drastically since I last shopped for a TV. In the LCD arenas-we were looking at the Sony Bravea. In the Plasma arena, we were looking at either the Pioneer's, Samsung's or Mitsubishi's. Then, when figuring infrastructure (cables, new Blue Ray, hi end surge arrester, other scuff) were were looking at some major bucks. I actually backed down. This is going to be a huge purchase and I don't want to get stuff I'll be unhappy with down the road. So we decided to wait. Then I was thinking about a temporary solution. I was looking into the DLP HDTV's. Looks like you can get some killer sets in the 50' range and not break the bank. My logic is that we can use the DLP in the family room then in a couple years, take the big dump and get a plasma like we wanted to originally.
I'm going to look at the LED DLP HDTV's today. Any opinions? To my understanding, the CRT HDTV's are not as reliable. Something about replacing tubes more often. Something. Then there was the suggestion to go towards the LED's. Does any one have the LED version of DLP HGTV? Any opinion about this Samsung. Go HERE. If you guys have a moment for suggestions. Greatly appreciated.
