Contrast ratios

by dahc37 - 4/11/08 4:34 PM

I am looking at two different tvs, the Samsung LN32A330 and the Samsung LN32A450. The only real difference is that the A450 is $150 more but its contrast ratio is 1:10000 while the A330 has a 1:8000 contrast ratio. Now my question is is it worth it to pay $150 for the extra 2000 contrast or is it a negligiable difference?

get the one that looks best to you.....but if you can, some retailers will sell the 450 at the 350 price...just to get a sale, so haggle with them and you may get the better model for the same price

That is the main reason

The more the TV cost the higher the contrast. most of the time.

since contrast is the number one stat that makes a diffrents in picture quality, it takes more money to get.

although most companys dont give you the real contrast ratio number or dynamic contrast, you must be carefull.

but the 450 is higher in contrast then the 350, it may be hard to see in the store, but not at home.

the price diffrents is up to you to decide.

good luck
