The Best Choice when Purchasing a Plasma or LCD Television

Average Consumers Wanting a Home Cinema

Go for the plasma television. In our opinion raw size counts for a lot, and plasma TVs are the big range in town. Added to this is the price advantage of up to several thousand dollars, that could be saved on the TV and spent on ensuring that your home cinema audio is the best that it can be. Even an extra comfortable chair or sofa could be the perfect addition for using the plasma TV savings on.

High Definition When Money Isn't A Problem

If you just must have that ultra-sharp resolution to match in with your high definition home cinema setup, and can afford to pay more for the privilege, then an LCD may be right for you.

You will probably end up with a smaller set than a plasma equivalent, but provided that you are in a smaller sized room the difference shouldn't be overly noticeable. After all, we are talking about very big televisions anyway. Even a 40 inch LCD television will probably still be significantly bigger than the old CRT it replaces.

Conclusion

Keep in mind that these sets are still cutting edge equipment even today, but prices are dropping regularly. These sets will continue to get bigger, brighter, sharper, and cheaper as time goes by and the current generation of sets filters down to a more mainstream price for both plasma and LCDs.

As with all purchases you should shop around, and keep in mind the details like a long warrantee and what will suit your individual requirements.
