I wasn't sure whether to post this here, or in Displays. If this is the wrong place, can a mod perhaps move it?
Anyway. I'm planning on buying a new TV this year. Due to the size of the room and such, I'm thinking in the 40"-50" range. The idea is to build a HTPC or something similar.
I haven't really kept up with development lately. Is plasma or LCD the way to go these days? I'd rather get a smaller TV with higher image quality than a larger, worse one. What I'm looking for is basically something that doesn't completely crushes the blacks, doesn't over-sharpen the image, and where the stupid bloody motion smoothing stuff can be disabled. Basically, I want the TV to do the bare minimum of post-processing on my image signal. This is the key thing.
Not really sure what my budget is, to be honest. But less than $1000 I suppose. About 5000 SEK.
I figured you guys are usually the go-to crowd for this sort of thing.
Thanks!
