Skippy Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Don't always get sucked into the side by side. I found a bunch of times when I tried the side by side that someone jacked the settings up. I just kept checking and settled on the one that I liked that had the features that I wanted and was the best price of what I liked. I ended up with a Sharp and unless all the cable guys, three of them, that have been in my house are blowing smoke up my ass, everyone seems be be blown away by the picture quality.

All TV's have a down side. I get compliments from everyone who sees my set also! And lets face it, if these momos don't know how to adjust a TV before they buy it, well they are idiots! If you can't play with it, WALK!!! DONT buy yer cables at the store and especially dont buy MONSTER CABLES go to monoprice.com for great product at great prices also the AVS Forums are your friend http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/forumdispla...aysprune=30&f=9 Good info!

Kid Cid Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Monster Cables are a rip! JMHO Not just yours. They are way over priced. You guys don't even know the half of it.

That would be very entertaining i'm sure. Have you hid your coffee tables yet? What kind of TV is it? Probably don't want to buy a used one. I'm still in the 27 inch tube television stage and have had bad luck with TVs. I've bought 2 since i've moved to AZ in 2001 and both have crapped out. The first, which i'm still watching, has about 3 inches of the picture at the top flipped upside down. The second works for a while and then the picture goes black. Then after I turn it off and let it cool down or whatever it works again. I'm cursed. Most likely will get an HD of some sort this summer, but probably not a huge one.

rocknrobn26 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Nope. Well, Im from MN, so I guess I'm near. Why? I replaced my 36" sony (5 yo) in Nov.. Had it sittin' around til last week when we gave to a charity. I was only askin' $150 for it and got no takers. It had a picture second only to HD. It would have been perfect for you.

Moneyshot Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 what'd you end up buying?

I hate buying things. You might as well go w/ HD, as long as the set has a decent SD pic.. Do you have Cable or a dish, MM? Edit for: Best Buy will deal. I know I hate playing games also, but you have nothing to lose. Looks like a decent set! What are your viewing angles? And distance? Check those out at the store.
