Re: Flatscreen TV set in Fireplace (Advice)

Why, are so many people bitten by this fallacy that LCD is no good over 42", sure it used to be true, but these days, the latest LCDs are more than a match for Plasma TVs.
As long as you get the TV calibrated, and purchase a quality model, you wont have problems.
I looked closely at LCD and PLASMA screens, before making a decision recently, black levels were my biggest concern, in the end i opted for a 52" 1080p Sony Bravia W4000.
it cost nearly 2k but if you shop around you can find it cheaper now. after calibration i must admit the PQ is astounding and so are the black levels and shadow definition. its worth a look.
