In Reply to: RE: doesn't matter how big your screen is, depending on how far away you sit posted by Jazz Inmate on December 28, 2009 at 22:31:11
Exactly how close do you sit? I think you miss what I'm trying to convey.
Watching a 60 inch TV and watching a 100" or larger screen is a different experience.Even an 80 inch screen would make you think twice about using your TV for movies anymore.There's a cinematic feel you get that I've never experienced from a television..not one can give you the cinematic feel of a large projection screen.
I have 52 and 42 inch panels here.I use neither for movies anymore.
It's one of those things. Until you experience it at home, you won't understand.

I have a 60" Kuro screen. I sit about 8 feet away.

Ditto.

Without a point of reference, it doesn't matter. My plasma looks bigger than the big screen at my local AMC when I watched Young Sherlock holmes this afternoon from the rear seats. It all depends on how close you're sitting. The smaller screen can provide better resolution and a more film-like experience.

I don't have a room in my house that would make projection feasible or more advantageous than a plasma.

The cinema experience is different from flat-panel television as opposed to projector and a 100" or larger screen.
For movies my wife and I prefer front projection rather than watch our LCD direct view TVs, and they're 40" and 48" respectively, and everything we have is 1080P capable.
Cheers,

One of my panels is 1080P. The other panel and the front projector are 720P. One of these days I'll bump the projector up to 1080P. This will probably happen once 3D friendly 1080P projectors come to market.
Yup once you go front projection and screen...you never go back to a direct view TV for serious viewing! lol

Sometimes it's about quality, and not about size. :) [Yeah, I know you're trying for a jab there.] That's one reason why many people have both. Just don't compare an LCD panel with a good plasma, I'd choose the PJ over the LCD too, for now. [There's my jab.] But yes, some people like the cinema "feeling" that only a very large screen can give. Especially when combined with a bunch of viewers, I'm convinced some movies are made to be seen with "crowds" and you need a large screen for that.
OK..you got me there!lol I have to say out of my Plasma flat panel, LCD flat panel and DLP projector. Giving consideration that the LCD is 1080P. My 720P projector still beats it across the board in color saturation, black levels and shadow detail. I've done several comparisons between them displaying Blu rays ripped to hard drive. I have them both set to display the same image at the same time from the same source.The only thing my flat panels do better, is viewing in direct sunlight. No projector can defeat the ambient light issue.
