Stallion Motorsports1647545491 Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 I might be in the market for a new tv soon, any good recomendations in the 1000-1500 range? Does anyone know if HD is going to raise the cost of my current cable bill? What do you guys have, that you are happy with? Thanks in advance, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Yes, HD packaging will add to your cable bill. Nature of the beast. For that price range, you are pretty much stuck w/ either a small flat panel LCD (or a slightly bigger, but POS flat panel LCD), or a rear projection CRT, which is probably what you will want. Don't buy the cheapest CRT you can find; it will look all pretty on display w/ the HD content being fed through it; toss some regular digital or analog channels through a cheapo HD CRT TV and you'll its true abilities will shine through loud and "clear." (clear being fuzzy, distored, and looking like crap). Since I work for WOW and get it all free, I get all the HD packages we have. I pretty much like it for the letterbox formatting of movies and such, as I down-convert the signal for my non-HD 50" TV. But true HD recorded content on a good HD TV looks amazing.

iwishiwascool Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 I have Time Warner. I already had DVR so upgrading to HD with DVR didnt add anything to the price. It is true, HD input on my 52" (rear projection CRT) looks amazing and I havent even had it adjusted yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathan Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Session Timed Out. I think you have to be a member to buy off of the website too, and if he is not a member the member has to "pay" for the item FYI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
