New tv?


Well it looks like the not so old Samsung 50 inch plasma is on its last legs. It has a blue vertical band running down the left side and repair folks are telling me it is likely the display panel which cost as much or more than a new TV to repair. So what are you folks liking these days as the best TV for home theater? This is a set up with an oppo 103 and NAD integrated amp and Sonus fabar toy towers. We are looking for a 55 inch set and are wondering if plasma is still the best way to go? As always thanks for any suggestions.

One day ago I was on the AVS website. There was a discussion about the ZT60/VT60 and F8500. So I thought I will make an account as well. Mannnnnnn I was very popular.....hahahahahaha. I asked people with there expierence in HDMI cables. I said I tested many and there is one which is by far the most convincing. They all believe in calibrate your screen but not in difference between hdmi cables. They did not appriciate my thoughts about cables. I even got banned from the website. And no I did not insult any person. Maybe a website not for persons like me?

Which HDMI cable do you like best w/the Plasma TVs? Seems appropriate to this thread.

I just bought a big solar photovoltaic system so my new TV dreams are out until the Black Friday Sales. A cable I might be able to swing though...
It is the Diamond from Audioquest. I use now three of them. One as a monitor cable to my Samsung PS64F8500, one for my Humax decoder and one for my Bluray player. It is both in vision and sound the best I have seen and heard sofar. Pure silver does bring it to another level.
Audiowomen, to sidetrack: I just got a copy of one of your reference CDs because of your listing in a thread (what's your reference music) of Cassandra Wilson "Blue Lights 'Til Dawn" (especially tracks 8&9)
EXTREMELY NICE!!!!!!
