Selecting your Screen Type
Traditional tube-type TVs still account for the greatest number of TV unit sales, but for screens larger than 36", shoppers are increasingly choosing plasma, LCD or DLP televisions.
Here's how the three types stack up:
Plasma & LCD Televisions
Plasma & LCD TVs create bright, crisp images without using traditional picture tubes. These super-slim, wall-mountable TVs use either plasma or LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels. In the past two years, LCD and plasma panels have dramatically improved their resolution, brightness, and contrast ratio. Size: Up to 46" for LCD; up to 61" for plasma. Technology: LCD and plasma screen technologies are fundamentally different from traditional CRT technology.
DLP Televiions
Rear-projection DLP TVs: "Big-screen" TVs produce clear, sharp pictures that look best when viewed straight on, from a seated position. The picture looks dimmer if you're viewing from the side, or standing up. Although their cabinets have slimmed down in recent years, RPTVs (rear-projection TVs) still take up more space than direct-view TVs, and their larger screens require greater viewing distance for optimum results. Size: 42" to 70".
