Syphonic Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 The Samsung LNR328w is a nice set to look at. Should run around $1800. It uses the same lanel as the Sony's, though the imaging chips isn't as good (the picture is still fantastic, though). 586728748[/snapback] Thank you very much :) I must admit Samsung's ads made me want one of their tvs, I just wasn't sure if they were actually any good! Is the LNR328W known as the LE32R41B in the UK/EU? Searching UK sites for LNR328W returns nothing :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangbang023 Veteran Posted October 30, 2005 Veteran Share Posted October 30, 2005 The Samsung HLRxx67W would probably meet your needs. Replace the xx with the size of the set you want and you have it's model number. The 46" version should come close to your price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangbang023 Veteran Posted October 30, 2005 Veteran Share Posted October 30, 2005 It's a close comparison. The Toshiba, to my eyes and a few other people I know, has richer colors on it, but the Samsung has snie which really helps give more natural colors. You're going to have to look at them for yourself since our eyes naturally see colors differently. One thing to consider about the Toshiba is the poor design of the control buttons on the unit itself. The buttons are flat and are similar to a touchpad design. However, they lose sensitivity over time. We just got rid of a model from last year, with the same design, that had lost all functionality in the front control panel.

SmacK Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Now what would you recommend with someone that has a price range of $3,000? I'm planning to get a Plasma HDTV but I don't have that much knowledge of the technology and I don't know which brand name would suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnaBonger Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Lol, this has soo turned into "BangBang023's Personal Shopper Thread" :) You should get into consulting or home theater setup as a side gig and make some extra $$. Seriously... (Y) (Y) Matter of fact, if your ever up in the Hartford area look me up. I owe you a few beers for your help :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning to get a Plasma HDTV but I don't have that much knowledge of the technology and I don't know which brand name would suffice. 586750155[/snapback] $3000 is going ot be hard to fit a quality plasma in under. Look at Philips and Toshiba for that price range. I don't really have a particular model off the top of my head, but they have sets in the $2600 range, what about DILA.... JVC's DILA tv's are pretty sweet... although i just checked and they are rather expensive compared to the other DLPs... 586750299[/snapback] JVC's D-ILA is nothing but a poorly implemented LCoS TV. They enhance the graininess of the picture making them unbearable to look at. If you want to look at an LCoS set, look at the new Sony KDS-r50xbr1. It's a gorgeous set and is getting great reviews. I highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
