urgent ..need info on large size TV
******************************************

We are very confused. So many technologies.

Would like a 50 to 56 inch TV or thereabouts.

We have a large room.

max budget around $1300.

There is DLP, Plasma and LCD etc ..

Which one is better and why ?

Walmart, Frys, Best Buy , Circuit City all offering different
products,
technologies etc.

We Don't care about brand and
not very particular on fanatastic picture quality.

Just want a good reliable TV that gives us best value for the money.

That can last 6 years or so.

Also any info on TV stands ? what to avoid ?


Pls advise.


Thanks
Linda

Stay away from RCA, Sylvania.
If you want best bang for the buck. Olevia and Vizio make pretty cheap
LCD's . Not 50+ though.

Does that include the stand?

See above referenced sites
What are your room circumstances. Bright-lots of windows; Dark=few
windows or drapes to darken?
What is your source of signal, i.e. cable, satellite, antenna?
Will it be a stand alone set or part of a Home Theater system with
connected DVD player, receiver, etc.?

The 720s are cheaper than the 1080s
Westinghouse has some sets at 40-46" which have no tuners (you don't
care if your source is via some provider's set top box)
