I don't know where to start looking... I've heard the Sony Wega's are very good... Suggestions? I live in a fairly small apartment... I probably wouldn't have to go any higher than a 36''... and $3000 might be exaggerating... I probably want to keep it under $2000.
Things I want in a television.
HDTV / 32"-40" / CRT
Good price (duh) / Good picture (double duh)
Flat screen / 4:3
Should I get HD-Ready or HD-Compatible? I know the difference, but, is one better than the other? I already have a 5.1 setup so an extra box and some cables won't hurt any. Though I suppose I'd lean towards HD-Ready because of the convenience.
The television will be used for regular cable television, DVDs, and Video Games. It will be the main television.
Edit: I'm not sure I really WANT HDTV... I don't care about regular TV cable. Mostly I'll use it for Video Games and DVDs. Is progressive scan good enough?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Update!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I may have made a decision.
Sony KV-34XBR910
I've researched quite a bit, and for my price range (even including some televisions out of my price range) it's considered one of the best televisions by many different websites and reviewers. With research, 16:9 has grown on me, as well. Any comments, concerns, suggestions?
