But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

This is not a true 1080p display. The resolution as listed is only 1366 X 768 pixels. It can accept a 1080 signal but downscales it to its native pixel resolution. For true 1080p look for a display with a 1920x1080 pixel resolution otherwise any 1080i/p signal is just downscaled.

Jeez, chill out man. He's not trying to fight you. He just pointed out that the display on your original post was not native 1080p. Man some people can get too sensitive.
Also the Westinghouse LVM-37w1 has been discontinued and is sold only as refurbished units. It is no longer sold in retail and has been replaced by the LVM-37w3.

i know hes not, and im not mad. i was just being sarcastic.
even better tho, your link may be the tv i get if i inheirit money soon. im sure by the time i can afford any tv 1080p displays will be more common and cheaper tho. nonetheless, a little over 1k is not much for a 1080p display now. just htough id show some people there are tv's out there that they can get for cheap. i know people who are looking for an HDTV are looking around 1.5k, so >1.2k is great

I've seen the Westy LVM-37w3 in action and it's pretty good. I'm thinking of getting one for the bedroom. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's the smallest 1080p native display available at this time.

what is the best tv to get DLP HDTV 1080p with 1920 x 1080 or, Lcd HDTV 1080p with 1920 x 1080 . I am findin it hard to choose I want the best picture but cheap lol I heard the plazma 's are not good because of burn in images so I dont want one of those. also yeah this is for the Ps3 in the future . I was gonna post the pro's and con's and start a thread but hell this might be were it can be started .

well LCD tvs suck if you play a non HD game. For example i play my PS2 on a LCD and unless its a Progressive scan game then graphics are horrible. It looks better on a normal TV. But since PS3 outputs HD then it doesnt really matter. Personally id perfer Plasma than LCD cuz Plasma has a slight sharper image than LCD. But its true that LCD is safer cuz there are no glares and images wont burn in. But i played my PS2 on plasma forever and that hasnt happen to me so i dont think its a big problem to worry about.
PS3...it only does everything(that Sony allows it to)

thats a good point CrisKahn that was another question I was gettin at ,ok since I read about 6 games that are confirmed at the full 1920 x 1080 so far . how many games are makin this big jump compaired to not? would it be wise to have the HDTV for just those games, and have another Tv for the lower pixel games ,or does an 1080p HDTV have a setting or switch to turn it down a notch . wow im lost lmao

yeah it can be toned down, but there is still just as many pixels on the lcd. upcaleings look better typically tho.

thanks Anubis ,this is helpin me understand alot I think im gone go ahead and ride with the LCD , I do like the DLP Tv's the only thing about them is they are bulky and heavy I do want a Pretty big TV and even though they are over looked they still are nice. the only thang I found wrong was the rainbow effect sometimes in the corner of the screen . How do any of you feel about these or the projector ? I saw and hd projector and my mouth dropped lmao at how fuckin high it is.

When you're dealing with fixed-pixel displays such as LCD's and DLP's anything you feed into the TV gets SCALED to the native resolution and any interlaced signal is converted to Progressive. For exaple if you have a 720p display - any input is converted to 1024x720p at 60fps. For the PS3 the best scenario will be: 1080p game at 1080p output thru HDMI to a 1080p display. A 720p game will be upconverted to 1080p and should still look good.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution
Front projectors are a good alternative especially with prices dropping. You can get an excellent 720p LCD projector for less than a plasma. My best gaming experience has been through a front-projector system with a 7.1 surround system (my Dad's 1080p Sony Ruby projector on a 110 inch screen with the X360 and COD2). Resistance at 1080p on a 110 inch screen should be a treat.

I couldn't disagree with you more on this subject.i have a Sony KDL-40S2000 40" LCD TV & my picture i get from that compared to a tube TV is not contest.I know when i play Madden 07 for some reason its on the 480p channel and it looks awsome.

i dont typically like projectors over an extreemly large lcd tv, but if you have a big white wall they can be the best. but once the bulb inside dies, its like what, several hundred dollars to replace? either way, projectors are coming down in price. you guys remember those old dark green and all steel overhead projectors older schools used? ah the good ole days..that machine brought fun.

@dblbogey7:
I finally caved in and yesterday got the Panny PT-AE900u front projector. I already had a 110 inch DaLite High Contrast Gray motorized screen installed which drops down in front of my Sony SXRD. I couldn't resist their online deal for $1300 plus 3 years warranty and an extra bulb. I think they're making way for the 1000u model which is 1080p. The picture from HD-DVD and the 360 are just awesome. You're right - everyone should try gaming on a projector. The PS3 should rock with this PJ. How's your basement theater coming along? Have you preordered the Sony Pearl projector?
@DamonDash:
You're right. The Sony Bravia series LCD's are very good at handling 480p signals. I saw a few models which were great before I decided on the SXRD.

this thread is gettin good , a nice one you created Anubis . I'm sure alot of newbies and people who dont understand alot about T.v's will find this very helpfull , thanks for a the great opinions and feedback guys it help me understand more of what to look for lol I was new at the T.V game , and I never ever got the best picture for my Ps2. I only used the av cables but my cousin told me to get the S-video or the best picture the component video cables. I missed out last time but this time Im goin all out for the Ps3. hell I was still stunned at the graphics from the av cables lmao

Sorry anubis but this is not a true 1080p projector. The native resolution is 1024x768 (not even widescreen). A 1080p signal gets scaled down to the native resolution. You really need a 1920x1080 resolution to have true 1080p.

yeah I feel you eatsushi I think that most people like the thought of the projector because its a HUGE! PICTURE, everyone want a big ass screen to battle on but that is the one bad con's about them is they wont out do a HDTV with 1920 x 1080 . I think 1024 x 768 would look good though for a projector , unless we can find one that is 1920 x 1080 that would really rock!

@eatsushi: Congrats on the new Panasonic projector. My cousin has the same model in his home theater and it rocks. Any particular reason why you chose the high contrast grey screen? I still have a way to go on my basement project. The in-wall speaker cables are in and I'm waiting for the HDMI, component and power cables that I ordered. After that comes the drywall, sound panels, screen etc. I probably will get this done by January or February. And yes I've ordered the "PEARL".
@DamonDash: I agree with you and eatsushi. Those Sony LCD Bravias are really good with most any kind of EDTV or HDTV signal.
@anubis: We had one of those Epson Powerlite projectors at one of our conference rooms at work. It's mostly a business type projector and not really meant for home theater. It's best suited for power point presentations and it's a non-widescreen 4:3 display. If you look at the specs its native resolution is actually SVGA (800x600). You can coax it to resize to 1024 x 768 but with only 400:1 contrast it becomes unwatchable unless you're in a totally dark room. Look elsewhere.
@blacGoku: Look at eatsushi's projectorcentral link and you'll see a list of the most popular 1920x1080p projectors including the Sony Ruby and the Sony Pearl.
