you’re going about it all wrong. Don’t spends days looking at info from the people who market them to you. Go to a TV nerd forum and see what people with similar needs are buying / paying. [AVSforum.com](http://AVSforum.com) is a great place to start. Then go check one out and you’ll know why they are good or bad from the reviews instead of just staring blindly at spec sheets that have meaningless numbers for the most part. also remember that unless you have florescent lighting in your living room, you can’t get a real idea how they are going to look anyway. > [@AWDrifter](#): > > This whole TV thing has become crazy. > I spent HOURS this weekend trying to decide what to buy. > It is impossible to compare sets because everyone makes theirs a little bit different. > I am quite sure the makers do this on purpose. > Crutchfield is starting to remove new tvs from their website because the newer, better tvs were cheaper! > I assume they are trying to “unload” the old stuff first. > My intension was to purchase last weekend but I refuse to invest in something that I don’t totally understand yet. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/720p-vs-1080p-answered-now-samsung-vs-lg/48268)._
