RE: My SONY KV-34XBR910 is failing. Repair or replace?

Panasonic seems to lead the market not only in high-end plasmas but also quality entry to midrange models. Without doing a lot of in depth research I would be comfortable buying a Panasonic plasma at any price point.

I have to agree that plasma still holds a noticeable edge over LCD in picture quality. Even with the improved viewing angle and deeper blacks, LCD still isn't quite there with the plasma screens.

There are NO viewing angle issues with plasma but even the finest LCDs have a slight shift in image quality if you're not almost dead center.

As for screen reflections from plasma displays, ours is in the basement where the lighting is subtle to dark. I might consider an LCD only if I had to place it in a brightly lit room where the plasma screen might be too reflective.
