Well, now that I finally landed myself employment I have decided now is the time to purchase a tv. I have had a nice HT setup for a while now but only have had a craptastic 27" Sansui stereo TV that just is not cutting it anymore.....

So, I am looking for suggestions for TV's under the following circumstances:

Size: 42"
Resolution: 1080p
Type: Plasma or LCD(no clue on the advantages or disadvantages of each, fill me in!)

I would like to stay in the $2500 and under price range.

There is so many to choose from and so many options in each I just don't know where to start. I have been trying to do a little research here:

Thanks in advance,

Mark

    KDL-40V2500, LCD.

    Search the threads, there has been so much discussions on the difference of technology - pros and cons

    Btw, Congrats on the new job!
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    INMHO, If you are looking for anything 50" and under there is no need for 1080P. Figured I'd try to save you a few bucks...

    For the money, I'd look at the new Panny commercial plasma 42PHD9UK.
