LCD Decision..request for help.. (1 Viewer)

[Echo 7]

I am currently looking at Two LCD's ...The Sharp lc-42d64u and the toshiba cinema series 42 lx177. the Sharp I can get easily for a much better deal than the Toshiba..but, I am not sure if it is 120 hz. The Toshiba would cost me about $500.00 more and I am sure is 120 hz. I am going to putting PS3 through it and possible run my computer as well. Okay ladies , Gents, let me know what your thoughts are!!

Regards,

hi
120 is mostly a marketing ploy on both of those displays. I like the Toshiba over the Sharp. The Toshiba is more easily calibratible.
www.valueelectronics.com is a dealer of both. Ask for Robert, the owner, he is the HTF Resident Expert.

I agree, IMO you'll have a hard time telling any difference between a 60hz & 120hz. I was in the same situation as you 11 months ago going between a 46" Sharp D62 series and a Toshiba 47LZ196. I'm very glad and satisfied with my choice to purchase the Toshiba.

Thanks Gents..

I am going to have to go with the Sharp..I am getting a hook up through my brother in law and looks like sharp is going to be the unbeatable price wise.
So where do I go for calibration tips ??

Again thanks for your tips.
