Home audio & video: What is the best TV to buy with < $1400

Samsung

Best Buy has some good deals on the LNT Samsung models. I've seen the 40-50 inch models all for less $1400. The 32inch is around $700. I have a vizio LCD and while ok for the price. I can hardly recommend it with the Samsung's only a couple hundred more. All of them are 720P. You won't see a difference in TV's smaller than 50" I wouldn't wast money getting a 1080P. Otherwise... on the big end. Samsungs DLP TV's are nicely in this price range. Personally though... Like other people have said... I would get a plasma. The 42" Pioneer Kuro is $1500 at best buy. You'd need to spend $3000 plus to match the picture quality with an LCD (if possible at all). The new 42" panasonic is available at best buy for $1199. It's a killer deal. I wasn't able to get a good source to it when I looked it this weekend but even with standard deaf it looked very promising. The panasonic does not have a VGA port though.
