I'm interested in a set for the bedroom. 42 inches and EDTV should meet my needs, based on my budget.
It needs to be easy to use and have built-in audio. Ambient light isn't an issue. Sources will be Time Warner digital cable (via Scientific Atlanta HD/DVR box) and occassional DVD's.
The Panasonic TH42PD50U looks like it fits the bill, I've heard good things about Panasonic plasma's in general. Here are the questions:
1. Any issues relating to this model, should I be considering different models?
2. Any other brands I should consider?
3. Here's the best price I've found.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Is this a good vendor and good price? I would be happy to buy locally, but CC want $2400 plus tax for this model. I would also be happy to give my business to a vendor who supports this forum.
4. If I switch between a high def and standard def channel on the cable box, will the TV recognize and adjust internally, or do I need to change a setting on the tv?
5. Do I run one set of inputs from the cable box to the tv or do I need a separate set of cables for hd and sd?
Thanks, in advance, for any replies.
