Picking the correct TV is one of the most important steps in creating a great movie watching environment. The first step is deciding the size of your TV which we covered in my last blog. I would suggest leaning towards a larger TV and then worry about finding something in your budget range. When buying a new TV,get an HD set because the market is changing and in several years SD will be completely phased out. Now you have 4 choices on what type of TV to buy, LCD, Plasma, Rear-Projection, and a Projector. To get a true theater experience i suggest a Projector and Projecting something around a 100" screen. The new projectors are now HD and very cost beneficial. You can get plasma TVs that large but they will be very expensive. If you are looking for a smaller TV (55" or below)i would suggest a plasma or LCD. When choosing any type of TV you will want to look at the contrast ration, the higher the it is the better. The other major thing is the brightness, you will also want a higher brightness level. Also connectivity is very important. Finally, go to the store and just look at the TV sets. Projectors may be harder to find and you may have to go to a specialty store, but they will amaze you and are worth finding one to look at.
