If you do check them out. We have one in Tucson called SWS Electronics and they match or beat Monoprice on any cable..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Agent Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I heard plasmas bad, LCD better? b/c plasmas have a short lifespan, need maintenance LCDs may outlive plasmas on average...but the lifespan on a plasma is like 15 years.

Scooby Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 LCDs may outlive plasmas on average...but the lifespan on a plasma is like 15 years. No one keeps them that long. I see, i thought it was shorter, way shorter, have 2- 40 in Samsung LCD's here, woulda liked the plasmas, the picture seemed clearer, but I was vetoed... oh, we bought thru cdnet.com, cheaper, no sales tax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
