After a few years of owning a CRT HDTV I decided to go against what I have always said I would never do, I purchased an LCD TV. After researching for a few months on the differences between LCD, DLP, Plasma, shape, sizes and weight I purchased the 46″ Samsung LN46A650A. Several factors changed my mind about purchasing LCD over DLP being that DLP requires it’s lamp to be replaced every 3,000 hours or so which sounds like a lot of time but over the course of a few years the hours add up and also the fact that LCD is much lighter and slimmer than any other TV which means I can essentially put it anywhere I want without a lot of hassle. The inherent and widely known setbacks with LCD technology has been resolved in this year’s model: Motion blur and washed out black levels, I can safely say that while watching all different types of content it performs beyond my expectations and I am very satisfied with its clarity.
After a few days of putting my new TV to work I am very pleased with its overall performance, I am looking forward to my impending purchase on a Blu-Ray player in the next month or so to really work it out. David and I had a difficult time lifting the mammoth out of my apartment and down what seemed to be a very long flight of stairs. Here’s a photo of the TV.
