Default TV- LCD or Plasma ? - Budget= Rs.1 Lakh


what do you guys suggest?


My dad has already booked a LG Plasma (42") for Rs.96k.

my friends say LG has poor customer support & LG is way behind Sony (obviously) & Samsung in both LCD & Plasma dept.




i'm thinking of Samsung 42" (around 63k) & a Sony home theatre, or a complete Sony Solution. (Sony HT + Sony Plasma/LCD)


guys i need quick reply, coz by Monday or Wednesday, the LG noobs will send the bill

is getting a DVD Player better or a 5.1/7.1 DVD Music system (3k+ Watts)???

& what about Blu-ray Players?

reply with Details (TV model, Home theatre model # + cost...) are most Welcome

------------

>>btw is Plasma better than LCD, in terms of clarity?

coz i heard Plasma hasnt reached that level of development (as LCD has) yet.

whats the cost of bigger screen LCD/Plasma TV? like 60"+?

(rit now i'm in KGF, no shops)



PS. we're lookin for wall mount. TV.

as far as technology is concerned ... LCD - development in lcd has improved whilst theres not much happened as far as plasma is concerned

well guys. LG is finalised.


getting it, coz it has PIP, TV Recording (like media centre pc's),... & has VGA interface too

good, it'll be REALLY great to race in a 42" screen & also play games like Half Life 2 & CSS.

Well.. I Can't say.. But does Mac Mini have a Media Center Software? If it does, Mac Mini + Sony Bravia 32" is a much better Investment

MACs do not have any good tv tuner cards. You would be interested in some discovery here: 24-inch IMac is nearly perfect

^ thanks man, the LG "demo dude" also suggested to exchange the present Sony DVD player & get a Sony Home Theatre (HT).

does that (DAV-DZ150K ) HT come with the DVD player which has USB Pen Drive support??

i'm goin to B'lore 2morow, (e-Zone) & will book the HT.
