I have a newer Panasonic viera plasma and a newer LG 7300 series LED and the plasma is hands down a far superior TV. The LED may look brighter, but the plasma is better in every other aspect. If I were to purchase another tv, no question I’d get the plasma. ---

> [@EvoMR](#): > > I still have a 50" Pioneer in my bedroom and 60" Pioneer in the living room. I’d like something a bit larger than 60" but haven’t found a suitable replacement with better picture quality yet. +1 I would consider the Pioneer Pro elite I have in my living room, one of the best TV’s available. ---

So, set up that LG I posted about above last night. Haven’t tweaked any settings at all yet, and the picture is outstanding. Honestly, I’m shocked, given the price. If they’re not completely sold out, this is a must buy, as long as you don’t care about 3D, or smart features (apple TV, Roku, etc takes care of this) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/looking-to-buy-a-new-tv/234676.md?page=1)
