Projection Television
My parents are going to get a new TV to replace their old 50" TV. Here are
the 3 choices they are considering: 1. A regular old-fashioned 50" projection TV like they used to have (cheap). 2. A 50" projection HDTV (a little more). 3. A 50" projection DLP HDTV (more still). Given that they don't actually watch HD TV at this time (they have a regular DVD player that's not progressive scan and they have regular broadcast TV), is there any point to getting #2 or #3? I understand that maybe they should get a widescreen since everything will be that way before too long. However, are they going to get any quality difference with the more expensive TV's? Thank you! |

I think they have over-the-air HD now so it might be an option for
them. Of the CRT-based projection sets (not LCD or DLP projection) the highest rated in CR is Sony KP-51WS520 at 1700. Panasonic PT-47X54 at $1400 was 3rd. If it were me I would opt for the cheapest TV that provided what I wanted for the near-term, because prices are supposed to drop and drop on the real spiffy ones. |
