LCD Or Plasma For HD??

[jfish]

from what most experts say anything from 42" higher Plasma is best

but Plasma do suffer from image retention, not as bad as the earlier models, but they do, I have a 50" LG Plasma and once my son left the a game in pause mode for a good hour and when I went to watch TV I could see the Wii image and it took it a few minutes to clear and then it wasnt perfect, thank god my LG has a whitewash which cleared the screen and it was back to normal.

Panasonic tend to be better when it comes to IR than other makes.

plasma or lcd it always comes down to the hardware in the tv that determines which is better...

Plasma's always win hands down in picture quality.When you compare a high end plasma with a high end lcd, the plasma wins.Plasma's use phosphur just like a crt tv does, instead of an electron beam hitting the phosphur the plasma does.It has vibrant colours and does not suffer from viewing angle problems.If i was to buy an lcd it would only be a sony bravia.The motion engine used to proccess the image is second to none.The problem with lcd tv's is that the CCFL's or the inverter that drives them always fails, that is the single most failure in a lcd tv.Unless your prepared to fork out the money & buy an LED LCD TV.Also i recommend that you get the extented warranty on an lcd tv

khurramdar, i've attached the service manual for the tv that you've probably bought already, you'll need it

I also have the above TV and its superb. Plasma do have a brighter picture, other than that, there is only a few differences. Plasma have issue with image retention, so basically if your playing video games on a tv, your best with LCD as they are faster than plasma

I run as many films ect in 1080p on an LCD and i cant complain at all, have seen plasma but i prefer LCD
