Gonna Buy Me A New TV...

but i cant decide which one to get! i know i want a big tv (46-61") and 1080p .

the 1st decision i need to make is DLP or LCD. the only thing i can find that is really different between them is that there is a bulb in the DLP that needs to be replaced every so often, but the LCD doesnt.

im kinda in between 3 choices:
DLP Samsung 61"
DLP Samsung 56"
and
LCD Samsung 46"

and my wife and i also are buying a new entertainment center (which also will have a bearing in what size we buy)
can you help a guy out?

I'd go with Sony over Samsung for a DLP any day. I traded a 50" Samsung for a 60" Sony and it's a WORLD of difference.

I personally like Samsung over Sony, especially when price is considered. I also prefer LCD over DLP. Correct me if I'm wrong (which I'm sure someone will) but isn't DLP's viewing area MUCH less than LCD? I know I have 178 degrees of viewing on my LCD...

Also, why not go with 120Hz refresh rate? That's where technology is going. You might be mad later you didn't go w/the newest technology.

DLP has a lot of reflection and glare problem if u r going to be watching the TV with ur home lights switched on. i have had that problem. it may be a little clearer but when u see ur own reflection in the TV everytime, ur action movies start becoming annoying . I have a 42" LCD (Toshiba).
