Rear Projection TVs

Rear Projection TVs

Is there any reason why these are so cheap ? i know i aint gonna be able to hang it on a wall or anything

Is the picture a worse than LCD televisions ?

tah

Re: Rear Projection TVs

dont know if this is still the case but some early rear projection tvs wouldnt have a perfect picture unless u sat directly infront faceing it , i.e. if u looked at it on angle from the side the quality would be poor , if visable at all that is !!

Was in Currys the other day looking at a giant sony one, picture quality was amazing. The reason they're cheaper may be that all the new TV's are HDTV compatible.

so is this bad boy...

and its 50 inches and less than £1300

That's a beauty, wouldn't mind hooking up the 360 to that when I get one

Yeah im thinking about getting one, only thing thats putting me off is it probably goes back about 3 feet

Lol thought u werent gettin one m8 ?? :spangled:

If I have the money then I'll have one, I can always sell it to you when I get bored with it

Speaking of selling stuff, I'm selling me Dvd recorder, 150 english muggings to you mate... and anyone else who is interested

If it had supported divx id have snapped ya hand off m8 !!

Nah man. The new ish ones dont. My 32 inch normal TV is probably deeper. Make sure you get a DLP though (+HD if the cash is there). "What hi-fi" did a thing with them a few months back. May sill be on the website.

Thanks, ill have a look

Rear Projection TV's are perhaps the biggest electrical bargin you can buy in the UK at this time. The picture quality is amazing and they are so cheap becasue the technology is old and all the small cocks want LCD these days.

IF YOU WANT A GREAT TV CHEAP: BUY ONE

not too imprssive with rear projection, never have been. too many disadvntages. poorer picture quality. crap viewing angle. theyre deep as fuck. the light source inside isnt menna last that long compaired to conventional teles

If it breaks within the 3 year warranty period it wont cost anything to be fixed, guarenteed it will break after 3 years and one week though

You will probably be able to get a 50" LCD for the same price in 3 years anyway

Wrong, the new DLP chip technology Samsung and others are using in the Rear Projection is streets ahead of LCD/PLASMA.

Listen to Pike.

It would seem that loads of new ones have wide viewing angles too

The viewing angle is far superior than the Plasmas.

You don't have to sit straight on, the depth and quality of the Samsung DLP I have is amazing.
