Any T.V Upgrades for Football Season?

[Side Show Joe]

I just got a 70", 240 mhz, 3D, Sharp for the upcoming season. I'm ready for the the LSU game. Did anyone else get a new T.V.? If so, what did you get?

Samsung 51" plasma 1080p 500 mhz

Got a 42" Vizio LED 1080p 120hz for my birthday. Will get a 24" or 32" LED for tailgating.

So what's the best value for a TV set now, LED, LCD, Plasma or DLP? I'm still rocking out with my 56 inch Samsung DLP although my wife has a 46 inch LCD that is a better picture.

[oldguystudent]

Rear projection, 55" console. Not gonna upgrade until that thing explodes. So it takes up half my living room. It also adds a nice bit of shelf space on top.

[Rudy]

I'd say LED, and Vizio is a good brand.

I think plasmas have good pictures, and the best refresh rate (600mhz), but they have glass screens and can have problems with glare. LCD screens put off lots of heat, especially with bigger screens. DLP's have issues if you are not looking stright at them, and you have to keep the room dark. I like the LEDs.

Apparently you all are made of money and must make over 100k a year. I do not know many successful people who have or can afford a 70in tv! I didnnot know we had so many millionares at unt. You must have well over 3 million in a Ira or 403b if you have a tv like that!

If you are eligible to contribute to a 403b, you probably don't have $3m in an IRA as well.

LOL!!! Not even close.

I don't mind spending good money on a nice T.V. I figure I'll have it for a long time.

All 5 of my HDTV TV/Monitors in the household are LCD Vizio's. The latest two are 3D models that are more like a computer.

Let's see, $1000+ for Cowboys season tickets, likely with a poor view, or $600-$1000 for a quality HDTV with an amazing picture for the next 10 season and close up views, for ANY sport, tv show, or movie you want to watch?

Can't wait 'til football season. I'be been so busy this last year..we just moved into s new home with a media room and I bought a 3-d projector with a 100" screen. I haven't yet had time to install it or I'd post a picture.

I'm looking forward to things slowing down a bit so I can be more active on the site again. But, that may be difficult with a 7-month old.

That's great! Mine came with Precognitive DVR that records the future. I would like to tell you about what happens in the up coming LSU game, but I don't want to spoil it for you.
