Is the tv brand Insignia good? I have the lcd hdtv 37 inch insignia. is it good?

Q.

A. I have two older Insignia TVs (One year and 2 years). They aren't LCD, just the old fashioned kind. The first one shows most of the time with a yellowish tint no matter what I do to try and fix it. I thought it had to be a fluke in my set so when I bought another one on sale (it seemed to good to pass up) for my daughter's room I was surprised to find it to be yellow as well after a few months. What was I thinking??? I won't buy one again but hopefully you'll have a better experience.

LCD or PLASMA 37 to 42 inches Television?

Q. Will be buying new HDTV. Doing Research. Looking for Quality in combination with good price. Am not familiar with the new Technology and it's different definitions, so if you can help me, I'd appreciate it. What about the non-brand names, they are less, but do they measure up?? Plasma or LCD.??? What are the pitfalls of this new technology? Thanks

A. Well first of all, the smallest plasmas are 42 inches so if you go smaller you will have to go LCD.

LCD -
pros ... no image burn in, lower power consumption, lighter in weight so wall mounting is easier.
cons ... image lag, smaller viewing angle, black levels are not good.

Plasma
pros ... no image lag, wide viewing angle, blacker blacks
cons ... static images can burn in over time, power consumption is high, if mounting on the wall they are heavy, they run HOT

I personally would stay away from non name brand units. Why? Because I believe it will be harder to find replacement/repair parts for them.

What is a good LCD tv around 37-40 inch?

Q. I am looking for a tv that isn't too pricey but that will deliver a solid picture. I am wanting to spend under 1400-1500 dollars. Let me know if anyone has any good tv's for that price? Thanks!

A. Sony 42" LCD-HDTV, Bravia . This is HD ready, so you need an HD source, like an HD cable box or HD-satellite receiver, both of which have the HD tuner in them. That TV will give you a good HD picture with one of those boxes. Best TV . I have one ! It took me forever to decide on this one, but that's how you get a good product.

What would be an average sizes plasma or lcd tv for a master bedroom?

Q. We are looking at either 32, 37 or 42 inch plasma or lcd tv's. Normally we watch tv at night so which type of tv would have a better picture quality at night. Can anyone recommend some good models?

A. Plasmas are better for night viewing than LCDs.

The size to get depends on the viewing distance and the programming types. If you are going to be watching mostly HDTV programming, you can be as close as 2 times the screen measurement away (so, for a 42-incher, you don't want it any closer than 7 feet away from your viewing spot).

If you watch a lot of standard definition, you probably want a smaller screen or want to have it a bit further back, so that it is at least 2.5 or 3 times the screen dimension away.

Plasmas generally don't come any smaller than 42 inches. If 42 inches is right for you, among the top choices among reviewers right now are the Samsung HPT4254 / 4264 and the Panasonic 42px75 / px77. Check reviews at CNET below.

Good luck.

Can you help me hook my speaker system up to my new LG HDTV.?

Q. Originally had a 22 inch LG lcd hdtv and had the logitech x-240 speaker system hooked up to it and it worked fine. I just bought the LG 37lg30 hdtv. It is a 37 inch lcd hdtv. My logitech speakers won't work with them. Before, i just plugged the speakers into the headphone jack and when i do this with the new tv they won't project any sound.

A. First step: make sure the headphone jack on the new TV actually works. Plug in some headphones and see if you get some sound. Second step: make sure your speakers still work. Plug them into something else and check them. That should narrow it down.

What are top brands and models of LCD HDTV's today?

Q. My 37 inch Sanyo is on the blink, and I want to upgrade to possibly a larger screen and among the best of quality in the various brands available. Any guidance for me?

A. Give specifics as to size and budget and you'll probably get help that is actually beneficial, unlike the first two answers! LOL
First, stay away from cheap third tier, disposable junk like Sanyo and Vizio. http://www.hdguru.com/your-new-disposable-flat-screen-hdtv/107/
Second, read over the 11/07 and 3/08 Consumer Reports HDTV articles. Pay special attention to the reliability section. You can get these at your local public library. This will address brands, sizes, and technology (plasma vs. LCD).
Generally, Panasonic is the very best buy for your money in a plasma display. Sony, followed by Toshiba, is the best LCD over 37".

How much should I expect for a broken but used TV?

Q. I let my friends borrow my 37 inch LCD flat-panel HDTV (long story, irrelevant). One of the friends was drunk and broke a chair, and a big piece of the chair flew into my TV and broke the front panel. The screen is pretty messed up and it has a crack in it. It appears to be pretty unfunctional. The friend that broke it is being pretty cool about it, but how much does he owe me? The TV cost $1,070 including tax, and I bought it new around the middle of September 2006 (8 months old). What's the value of the TV now? How does depreciation work in here? Thanks for all the help.

A. Your friend is obligated to replace at replacement value. If he can have the set repaired to new condition OK. If not, he owes you a new set, same brand or better.

Will the game slows down if I connect my computer to a 37 inch hdtv?

Q. I have a very good gaming video card and 2 gb of ram. Anyways my computer is already connected with 22 inch hdtv. And i want to disconnect it and connect to my other T.V which is 40 inch hdtv. If i play games with that 37 inch hdtv. Will my games slow down? How much would it affect it? Will it be good enough to play games?

A. That depends partly on how good the 40" HDTV is. The larger the screen size the higher the refresh rate you want. The standard refresh rate for LCD screens is 60Hz. If the other HDTV you have is 120Hz, or even 240Hz, then it should be alright. Also, if it has a Gaming Mode, then that will help reduce any "stuttering" so you don't have any delayed reaction between joystick and game movement.
