$880 Exactly Need Hd
« on: December 25, 2005, 11:59:00 PM »
the sony KD-30XS955 is generally considered THE best CRT in my size/price range($880) but the question is can i afford it? some places list it high as $1200+ others have it in the 700-800~ range........i want the best i can get for my money and this is what i want, has anyone tryed asking local bestbuys/circuitcitys/sams clubs to order one and remember the price. PLZ i need something to compare to my uncles new 50inch samsung plasma.......that thing is sooooooooooooo beeaautiful(IQ wise......i OBVIOUSLY do NOT have $4000 to buy one like he does......its nice though tobad cable looks like total shit sitting 4 feet away from it on a bed)

yeah what he said, analog channels are shitty washed out and fuzzy digital were blocking from bad mpeg2 compression because comcast digital cable broadcasts are only like 2mbps...he didnt have an HD box there to watch hbo hd

I got a similar Sony 30" widescreen HDTV as well.  I saw them at circuit city about 2 weeks ago for $750.  Than you can use a 10% off coupon and get it even lower.  Its an awesome TV.  I love it.  Regular cable looks just as good on it as a normal tv, but when that normal tv is compared with HDTV, it looks awfull.

the KV-30HS420? that has exactly %65 less resolution then the KD-30XS955 im looking at......but thats not as bad as the samsungs with %85 less resolution


i want the best i can get on my budget....trust me if i cant get this tv i will most likely spring for that one
