LCD or DLP?


I'm looking for a 50" TV, because it's time to go HD baby! ;-)

LCD is supposed to project a better image, but I've never been impressed with LCD monitors. A buddy just bought a 50" Samsung DLP and he says it's the schnizel. Any suggestions or recommendations?

Thanks,

Sony's new SXRD, which is a type of LCOS is highly recommended. List for 50 inch is $3999, but you should be able to get 15-20% off that if you know your dealer well. I just purchased the 60 inch version, and it is outstanding. Plasma may be better in some ways, but you will pay for it. Happy hunting.
The LCD screens may have less 'color artifacts' than a LCP screen. Best thing is to look close at the screen (as well as the obvious sit-down-and-watch tests).
I HIGHLY recommend the Panasonic Plasmas or the Sony LCOS SXRD display. DLP and LCD don't measure up in my opinion.

Have fun!
Neither. The new Sony SXRD (LYCOS)is better than any LCD or DLP I've seen. You need at least 10-12 feet of viewing distance from the front of the set which is 19" deep. If you don't have the viewing distance (sony sxrd starts at 50")look at a smaller 42" plasma or dlp.
Samsung just introduced a new 1080P set with a 1 chip DLP that doesn't use a color wheel at CES.
