I have a PS3 and a T.V. that is not that great only 27 inches. Just wondering if a Panasonic, Sony or any other brand Flat Screen Television would really make a huge impact. Not a small difference but a huge difference in the graphics? I am a little dissapointed in the graphics for the PS3 and I am wondering is this just because I have a basic tv. Do I need a flatscreen?

You really need an HD tv. Use with an HDMI lead and then see the diference in graphics. My tv is only a 27in but it is brilliant in HD. Good luck.lol

I have been wanting a High Definition television for quite some time now and my tax return is coming, the time has come. I am torn on which television I should choose. I want at least a 32" or 37" lcd to put in my bedroom. I can get a 37" vizio for the same price as a 32" samsung or a 32" sony bravia, about $800.00. I also see a westinghouse, a sanyo, and an emerson 32" for about $600.00 each. I don't know whether to sacrifice size for "quality" or to take a chance with the larger size and hope all goes well. Does anyone own any of the lcd tv's I mentioned above? If so please post a review or comment on the product, pros and cons please. Thank you in advance

I'd suggest a logical approach.

1) Decide what you will be watching.
- if DVD and HD TV only you don't need a 1080p HDTV. A 720p model is fine. If you intend to watch Blu-ray or HD DVD movies you should consider a 1080p model.

2) How far away will you be watching from? Ideally you need a TV with a diagonal size about 0.4x to 0.7x the viewing distance. The closer distance is appropriate for a 1080p HDTV and the further one for 720p models. (See the 1st link for a handy calculator for 720p HDTVs)

3) What type of TV are you looking for?
- You probably know already, but consider.
- LCD is best at small sizes and is more energy efficient than plasma.
- rear projection is probably out because it is best at large sizes
- plasma typically gives a better picture than LCD (higher contrast), but is more expensive

4) What models are available in the size and resolution you need (720p vs 1080p). See the 2nd link.

5) Focus on those of the type you want (e.g. LCD) and that meet your budget limits (allow an extra 20% if you are looking at MSRP but not if you have a list of "Street prices")

5) Focus on specs. Look for the higher contrast ratio models, ones with higher brighteness ratings, and faster response times. Consider warranty, connectivity and style.

6) Read professional and consumer reviews on a short list (including on-line user views since this is often where the real info re problems. support, etc. come out) and go and see the model(s) you may be interested in.

7) Make a decision and select a place to buy based on, for example, local support, price, extended warranty price/availability (may or may not be on-line).

8) Order.

I just spent a gazillion bucks on a Sony Bravia High Definition LCD television. The salesman at Best Buy sold me a $300.00 calibration service. Supposedly TVs are set up to be brighter in the showroom, and are not optomized for home use. They are going to come out after a month, hook up a high budget computer, and calibrate this thing for me. He says it will save over 100 watts in energy consumption and look better when they are done. Is this really a good investment?

Professional calibration will give you the best picture possible, save electricity and prolong the life of the t.v. $300 seems extremely high, though, as Circuit City offers it for $150.

Wherever you go it's best to give the t.v. at least a week or two to break in before you have it calibrated. You'll get the most bang for your buck. In the meantime just change it from "Dynamic" mode to "Normal" or "Cinema" mode.

I have just purchased a 40 inch high definition (1080 res) SONY television. I need some help connecting the various wires to the TV. Here are the other devices that I have:-

(1)SONY home cinema system with built in DVD player
(2) VCR
(3) Digital receiver box

I believe that I need to use a HDMI cable to connect the home cinema system as this has a built in DVD upscaler that converts standard DVD's to 1080 format. What is the optimum way to connect the various devices. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not all that familiar with the Sony Home Cinema System. Is that a receiver as well? Do you have any speakers running from it?

Obviously you want an HDMI cable from the DVD player to the the TV. This takes advanatge of the upscaling. You can then choose to connect the VCR and the Digital Box to either the TV or the Cinema system. If you output your audio from the Cinema system, then connect the other items to that first. If not, you just bypass it and go direct to the TV. Again use an HDMI from the digital box if you can. You may need to upgrade the box to receive HD signals (call your provider if you have questions). The VCR can use simplier hook-ups, either video, S-video, or component, depending on what outputs it has. Component is the best, video the worst. If the Sony Home Cinema upconverts, it should pas all signals to the TV via HDMI cable. If it does not, you may need to run other cables from it to the TV to pass all the video signals.

Finally, make sure all your pieces are set-up properly. Make sure your DVD player knows you now have a 16:9 screen and is outputting over the HDMI. You make also want to callibrate your set to optimize your TV settings (i.e. brightness, contrast, tint, etc...)
