Greetings all!
I am currently in the market for a new LCD tv. I have been using a 32 inch JVC CRT for the past like 10+ years and my grandfather whom i live with has a Panasonic 32 inch CRT which is starting to go (the image is pushing in on one side) So since my JVC still works fine, i figured i will give it to him and get a LCD for myself since i do game occasionally.
I am not a kid mind you (i know this sounds like a odd statement but a lot of people act like I'm 18 when in fact I'm almost 40..lol) I take care of my gramps and thus need my game time to unwind..lol
Any way on to my questions:
For the price point and the fact that i am only about 10 feet tops from my Set, what brands would you recommend?
So far i have considered Vizio, Insignia, Samsung, Sanyo, Sony and Panasonic (tho the last ones are hard to find in that price range)
I would want either a 37 or 40-42 (from what i read anything bigger may not look as good this close.
Also at this viewing range is 1080p really necessary?
And to answer some questions:
Yes i watch a lot of movies (movie night every weekend at my place)
I do have a Onkyo HT already 6.1 HT-R510 which i have had for a few years now and i love it. (tho no HDMI worries me)
I do game occasionally whit my bud and his PS3
ATM i do not have A BR player but will be getting one at the time i get the TV
If there is anything else you would like to know please feel free to ask.
thanks in advance for any and all advice!
Dave
