downsizing TV's because of space issues, some recommendations - Blu-ray Forum

I have to part with a 61in JVC D-ILA TV (eventually). Due to the economic crisis, I had to take a job offer far far from my house, and while i'm in transition to making a new life down here, I need some sort of primary TV.

Essentially, cost of living is different here, so my realistic scenario is a Studio/1bdrm apartment. So this mean, somewhere in the 42"-46" TV... i just feel that a 50" would be too big.

reading consumer reviews on the new panasonic plasmas in the 42" range, but not sure. the KURO is AWESOME looking, but i'd only buy if it were a 50in and i had a bigger home to keep it in...

your thoughts? my purchase wouldn't probably be til end of year, or beg. of january next year.

I have the Samsung 46 inch 5 series. Samsung has the 6, 7, and 8 series (is 8 series out yet?). You'll get a great bang for your buck with this TV. If you're buying it at the end of the year I'm sure there will be incredible deals on it.

I bought mine for $1399 back 6 months ago and it's been one of the best purchases I've made. The 6 and 7 series have 120 hz processing but whenever i make comparisons between the 5 series and the 6/7 series in the stores, I just don't think there's much of a difference. Though i do like the red outline on the "Touch of Color" bezels.

That would be my suggestions as far as LCD goes. If you want plasma, than everyone will suggest the panasonic for you I'm sure
