Hey all I wanted to know what's the best tv I can buy for 5g's.

FlipperWasIrish · 10-23-2009, 01:50 AM

It depends upon what you want in a TV?

There is no simple answer.

sokrman14 · 10-23-2009, 02:07 AM

I personally feel the best TV would be the Panasonic 65" V10 series!!

if you want the most bang for your buck the 82" Mitsubishi DLP is pretty awesome

Get the Pioneer Elite Kuro, you won't regret it. I don't have one but I've seen a calibrated model at Best Buy hooked up to a blu-ray player. The picture and sound blows away all the models by a mile.

I agree with the guy who said Pioneer Elite Kuro. If you're looking for the absolute best PQ you can get, the 60 inch model is the way to go.

I just bought this bad boy last Friday and it freakin rocks. It's only 4 g's and it's one of the best tvs to date.

I cant refute the idea of a Kuro, but the Samsung post I can can refute

genkifd · 10-23-2009, 03:20 AM

then Pioneer 600M or LX609 is your tv - nothing is even close......

+1, I drool every time I see that TV in my local BB

Sonny · 10-23-2009, 04:28 PM

Shoot with 5K you can get a Kuro KRP 600m and have 2K left over. Or a Kuro 151 Elite and have 1K left over. or the 141 Kuro Elite if your lucky, but spend it all though. You will be in heaven my friend. Next best thing would of course be the Panny 65" V10 (im thinking about getting one). I have had the 7 & 8 series 65" panasonic & it just sick having a 65" flat panel!

kpkelley · 10-23-2009, 04:33 PM

For TV's I would suggest the 65" V10 or a 60" Kuro either the Elite or 600M.

However, for that budget you could get a projector and screen. You could get a Panasonic AE-4000U and an enormous fixed frame Anamorphic Screen with room under your budget for some movies. Or you could go for a Sony HW15 or JVC RS15 with the projector screen of your choice.

Hey spcamaj, when you get your Pio Kuro Elite for about $4K, send me the rest of your money so I can get the 50 G10 Panny for 1200. Thanks Bro.

You can get the 50G15 with a Panasonic DMP-BD60 for $1249 with free shipping from Vanns.

bhampton · 10-23-2009, 04:57 PM

Mine.

It wouldn't be a hot deal but if you bought my set for 5K it would be pretty sweet!

Let me know.

Well if the OP is willing to give me his left over cash, I will do that, could always use an extra BDP.

Seriously, I dont have the funds to get a new TV at the moment, that is why I was busting his chops about sending me his remaining funds...

Ditto..... then I could get a new TV, TV stand, Sub and a Receiver and still have about $2500 left over.

Now what to buy the OP for appreciation and my Wife who has to deal with me daily... HMM.

Bluubyu · 10-23-2009, 05:14 PM

What about the Samsung LN55A950, I'm sure you could get it for around 3k now and it's a great LCD local dimming set.
