Display Selection Help

Posted by Vic D on March 15, 2008 at 18:02:14:
I'm sure my searching skills are deficient so if this is a redundant cry for help I apologize.

My current 36" Sony CRT is beginning to fade. I honestly don't know what I've been holding out for but regardless of what may be on the horizon I think it's time for a new display.

Our main TV gets a great deal of use the room gets moderately shaded light from behind in the daylight hours. I live in a suburb of the San Francisco Bay Area and I currently subscribe to Comcast. We have three Sony TV's and I plan on replacing two.

So far I'm interested in another XBR or the Pioneer KURO/Elite. It's seems simply absurd to walk into a store and compare and the reviews are somewhat helpful but for some reason I'm not seeing what the reviewers are seeing.

Another issue for the bedroom display is size. The slim bezeled Toshiba 46RF350U would just fit a space behind our closets sliding doors. I no idea of the quality of the Toshiba.

I'd like to hear any opinions on these brands and I'm wide open to alternate suggestions.
