LCDs have restricted viewing angles, whereas LEDs don't.

My findings today guys after all the advice I've been given......Ohhh and after the cock sales man said finished telling me I wanted a 3d tv!!! Some don't listen.

Plasma - looked good, they just have the high glass/shine fronts to protect the screen obiously. but most of these are 600htz

LED - Nice view, good colours, but can't help thinking the price is for the slimness of the units. average 50-100htz unless you pay big £££

LCD - Seemed to be in the middle of the two......100htz average with fairly clean image.

Problem is, as the guy told me, 99% of the screens are running std leads - not HD. so was hard to get a good likeness.

Just Buy a WHAT HIFI magazine and look through if your having problems deciding, worth spending a £5 instead of making an expensive mistake.

All TVs are usually reviewed at the back.

HD will always look good on a HD TV. The question is does SD look good. It's no good having a TV that will only look good for a small percentage of the time.

The next question will be..........are your eyes 100% up to seeing all the detail these high end TVs offer!!!

Have you had them checked recently cause you will be missing out if not 100%

Sorry couldnt resist.

What about projection units? they do HD ones with a pull down screen, you could mount it outside and turn your house into the ODEON. :P
