Guest Hanratty Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I have about $700 to spend on a tv. I pretty much just want to watch dvds. flat screen is cool because it takes up less space. anyone buy a tv recently and can share the knowledge?

Guest tronicphace Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Had a 50 inch Vizio plasma for $1200, but the thing started having problems, so we took it back. Then we got a 25 inch Vizio LCD for $250. Pretty good value. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/48362-buying-a-tv/#findComment-1108187 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you get the right cables and hook everything up correctly for the best picture quality.

Your TV must be 1080p because if you set your ps3/360 to a higher setting than what it's capable of the screen distorts. 720 can go to 1080i, not 1080p.
