reflective glass or not, plasmas are brighter usually.
this is way too broad of a statement to decide against plasma.
i am a fan of plasma for viewing because they are typically brighter.
this has been discussed a whole bunch and argued…blah blah blah. sam, i know you play video games, which i wouldnt reccomend with a plasma. if this will be a viewing tele only, then i say go plasma.
dont take my word for it, go to the speaker shop. see my good friend matt. he will show you what you want to compare, and tell you more about tv’s and their difference than you want to know.
tell him i sent you for a good deal. make fun of me and he will give you an even better deal. give him a chance to be competitive with internet pricing. he WILL if he can.
when i build my house, matt will be the ONLY person i trust to design my media room, thats how much i trust him. i am going to see him tonight and will tell him to keep a heads up for you.
