LCD TVs --Slim and Trim
LCD TVs are a reasonable alternative to plasma TVs. They are getting bigger, cheaper and better. The biggest LCD is the 32 inch variety. Soon however they will be releasing 37 and 40 inch screens. These TVs display beautiful images when used with your digital video recorder. Smooth, bright images are a trademark of LCD TVs. Their thin screens have a white backlight with thousands of of pixels that open and close like shutters. They have wide viewing angles and like plasmas come in different formats (EDTV and HDTV).Unlike plasmas the EDTV version is noticeably different than its HDTV counterpart. These digital TVs are a wonderful compliment to your digital video recorder. For your cable connections I suggest looking at LCD TVs with a separate control unit. This way your accessories, like your digital video recorder or cable, can be connected to the box. This will reduce the number of cables going to your TV. Although prices on LCD TVs are steadily dropping a 32 inch Sony can set you back. If you want to scale down your pricing you can get a 17 inch Zenith for alot less. Depending on where you buy can greatly affect the price. Some of the best deals on these LCD TVs can still be found on the Internet. I've bought all of my audio visual equipment on line and some of it came from www.tvauthority.com. I have found them to be reliable with excellent pricing. Like DVD recorders, the best LCD TV pricing is not always easy to find. You can use this chart to find an LCD TV that will fit your needs. Each $$$$$ will open a new window to get you the current LCD TV pricing. After viewing the pricing just close out the window. You'll return back to the pricing chart. So far I've only used Amazon and BUY.COM to get current pricing. I'll be adding other vendors to get the best LCD TV pricing available. For now the LCD TV pricing at these vendors will have to serve as a good barometer.
