Hello everybody!
I have successfully upgraded my sound system for HT use, and it is now time to upgrade the display.
The first step I made yesterday was buying a 720p/1080i capable samsung DVD player HD 870. Blue ray and HD DVD players are not for people living in Egypt at this moment....the movies are not available.
I also found yesterday at the store a Samsung 50" plasma 720p/1080i and a 46" Samsung LCD 720p/1080i for about the same price of 3300 $ approx. (yes I know it is that expensive here)....do not even think of a 1080p display
my room is 1800 cu ft... lighting is not bright during the day (no sun...), viewing distance is 10 ft approx.
The salesman told me that Plasma may be better for satellite standard broadcast (that I have here).
I like the colours, brightness and life of the LCD, but I like the bigger size of the plasma,...
I will be using the display most of the time for watching DVD movies, but rarely for PC application.
What are your opinions??
Thanks
NB: I did not take note of the models, but according to Samsung Web site, I believe the models are:
LN-T4642H and HP-T5054.
