Isnt it the Plasma screens that Buzz? I was in soundtrack the other day, and i was checking out all of the plasma screens and man, it sounded like a damn bee-hive. I might be "bass ackwards" on this, but i think the best way to go is LCD, because the LCD screens dont Buzz and they also hit darker levels of black, while Plasma never gets darker than a real dark grey. The plasma's sure are slick, but when you hit a quiet part of the movie, that buzzing will sound as loud as a bug-zapper. if you are looking for something 60 inches across, you gotta go with a LCD, cause i dont think philips has finished its 60 lcd panel factory. Either way, next time you are checking these out, listen for the buzz. |
At 9feet, you will be hapy with just about anything available. the bigger question is what you are going to use as your DAC(digital/audio converter). If you are planning to use the DAC that comes with the plasma screen, understand that the whole world is in chaos. Satellite and DVDs are about to come out with high definition quality feeds that might contain certain copy protected signals. it is a bit like macrovision on High Definition. So, if you plan to use the DVI input on your plasma which means you will be using the screen's DAC, be sure that it has the copy protected circuits. Otherwise, your picture will be a bit degraded. If you are simply using the screen as a monitor, which means your DAC preceeds the screen, I don't believe this will be a problem. anyway, be aware of this process as many current models lack the processor and you might find yourself redundant before you know it. another thing, do searches on plasma screens on the internet and you will find some good deals. Chech out the Plasma Depot, amoung others. |
