Hello All,
I am currently in the market for a new HDTV system. I am leaning towards a set that can handle 1080p since i will be buying a PS3 as soon as one is available. On that note, I primarily watch movies and play a lot of games on my current Panny Plasma tv and I do foresee myself hooking up my PC to play some games as well (it looks horrible on my panasonic currently). I am looking for an LCD (I realize that Plasma's still look much better than their LCD counterparts at that size). I do not want to go higher than 55" and the distance between the couch and the TV is approx 7 feet. I was looking at the Sony SXRD series and the Samsung DLP series but I am not against a regular LCD or another brand for that matter.
There is one big worry that I have about the TVs I listed which is bulb replacement. I'm not worried about doing it myself but the frequency and price of replacing them. $300 a year does not sound like fun to me. If anyone has any thoughts to share on this it would most appreciated.
