Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater lcd vs plasma??

I have a Sony 32" LCD (KDL model) and an LG 37" LCD. I find that both represent high def comparable to each other, I find the Sony to be far superior at displaying standard def stations.

I think the Sony is much better, although what you are using it for will be personal choice. I have the Sony in my bedroom where I watch a lot of tv. The LG is in my second bedroom with a playstation2 hooked up to it. I just wanted a cheaper tv for the 2nd room so I just got an LG, which also reviewed and rated pretty good anyway.

Hi I was wondering the opinion about HDMI vs other connections in terms of picture quality( Not that I can see properly right now w/blasted eye problem) Also 720p vs 1080p sitting about 7-9 feet away from set if that matters. Thanks

Bruce, HDMI has the one-cable advantage, but doesn't necessarily allow for a better picture than does a three-cable component connection, which is fine.

The chart that Ted linked illustrates the interaction between viewing distance, screen size and resolution. At the 7' distance you mentioned a 37" 720p screen, for example, would just about take full advantage of 720p resolution, but 1080p wouldn't be useful.
