32" size, what should i get - Blu-ray Forum

haugse23 · 06-24-2009, 04:12 AM

yeah i still have the old tube tvs so i'm looking to upgrade. My room is relatively small so im looking for nothing larger than a 32" (anything bigger is just to big for my bedroom). I've wanted a plasma for a while but i'm gonna wait on that to buy for my living room. I'm just looking for a nice 32" thats just gonna be used for blu-rays and for playing my 360/ps3 on and i want to make sure that the movies and games are gonna look good. Any suggestions? i really don't want to spend more than $1000

32 inch for $1000 can get you the best tv in the market for that size. how far away will you be from your TV?

haugse23 · 06-24-2009, 05:57 AM

idk, 10-12' im guessing

Sitting that far back you will not get the benefit of watching in 1080p. I would say get a 40-42inch TV.

Phillips has a 1080P very reasonable in that size range.I have it in my bedroom and the picture is nearly perfect(Directtv)Easy to set up,too.

CMM · 06-24-2009, 10:36 AM

I'd go for a Sony Bravia, if you want an LCD like your post suggests.

Ahhhh, screamer...

blusharks78 · 06-25-2009, 01:23 AM

I purchased Sony's KDL32S3000 model and I love it !! It's my first HDTV and I use it to watch TV, blu-rays and play PS3 games. At 32 inches, 720p is all you really need...

In my opinion, this TV comes highly recommended !!

Good luck !

Go with a Sony Bravia. They make excellent 32" HDTV's. A freind of mine just picked one up at BB and being a 32" I was impressed.

haugse23 · 06-26-2009, 11:51 PM

alright so i've decided to go with a 42" but not sure what kind to get, i've heard that panasonic has some really nice tvs in that size

Panasonic has some very nice 42inch tv's but dont forget to take a look at Sony and Samsung as well.

32" get a sony xbr9. I think they are $600 on amazon. I have a 40" in my bedroom and sad to say, its overkill.
