I want to get an HDTV, but do not know where to start. I know there is alot to read, but wow... I thought I would talk to people who have something currently. What looks good, what does not work, what to stay away from, any extra cables... anything worth mentioning. What brands suck, what brands are nice... LCD vs. Plasma? Where should I buy from?
This will be for my family room in the basement. Not a lot of natural light, mostly dark, about 12 feet from the couch to the wall where the TV will be. I also will get a tivo, and surround sound package at the same time. I am wanting to spend $3500 - $4500 not too much more than that total. Mostly watching TV shows, a few movies and a few sporting events, but mostly used for television. I might hook a media center PC up as well if possible.
Thanks all.
