LED/LCD TVs

[BlackVert]

I am looking into getting a new TV for my man cave.

So far this one is my front runner ... Target has it on sale for $999:

Amazon.com: Philips 46PFL7505D/F7 46-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LED LCD HDTV, Black: Electronics

any thoughts? The $999 on this one is about the maximum I would like to spend.

Well, it may not hurt to wait a little bit, especially if you do not absolutely need one...

The 46" Bravia has, IMHO, one of the finest looking images on the market. But, it is currently a $150-$200 out of your price range.

However, we are rapidly approaching that time of year where all of the retailers are going to be courting your hard earned money in the name of the holiday season...if you think that sale is good now, imagine what it will be like in November...

I would wait a month or two and get the Sony when it goes on sale...you know those sales are coming...

thanks .. i'll see if i can find that one locally. there is a best buy not far away

Yeah, I'd wait til Holiday shopping season hits...though it's football season now! lol

i can't really wait ... i am setting up my man cave and the plan is to use the TV also as the monitor for my computer, and i need to be able to use the computer before christmas, so i need the TV soon

i think i saw that 46" sony at best buy for $1200 or so, that looks great

I ended up getting the Sony KDL-46EX700. It was $1199 at Best Buy. Close enough to my price range for me, and every review I could find said the picture was the best of all.

Now the fun can start!

i wish i would have bought a sony when i got my TV. it blows away my sharp. good call Chris

New TV is always sweet...especially with Football getting into full swing now

I regret not buying the Sony when I got my TV...

thanks. bestbuy has a price matching policy, and i found it online at dell for $1044 with free shipping. i hope they match that price. that would save me about $150

FWIW - Not sure if you've heard the recent news on the AP wire, but apparently retailers are expected to offer deep discounts on LCDs in the near future due to low sales volume this summer
(the manufacturers were hoping to move lots of LCD units for the World Cup - WTF? LOL ).

Sooo, maybe you'll be able to get a steeper price match discount if you look around a little more - although the $150 is still a nice chunk of change if they honor the Dell price. G'luck !

I have a toshiba 32'' i loved the quality for the price paid like $320 shipped Apparently they have the nicest black levels on cheaper tv's

But its starting to act up the inputs get pixelated if someone walks near the tv or the tv vibrates... They are fixing it for free.
