Plasma for 3 grand around 46' - Blu-ray Forum

jorg · 06-04-2008, 01:13 AM

ka so just got a new house until ours is built and i wanna buy a plasma for around 3 grand preferably under a little but it alright id like it to be around 46 inches and this is going to be my first plasma, what i'm asking is best picture quality for this price / size range (it can be bigger if it has to be).

this will not be my main tv around Christmas im going to buy a big main tv

also lighting conditions are not a factor but always nice if the it has anti-reflective coating

wow, well you can find many good TVs for this kind, the
Panasonic TH-50PZ800U or the Samsung LN52A650, you can also get a nice kuro

The Panasonic is a great tv I love mine and well under $3,000. If you want to spend more the Kuro is the best.

oh my god yes! lol... that TV is remarkable! we just put it on display today at my store and i love it... i dont work tomorrow night but I'm gonna go in to watch the hockey game on that baby... check it out if you have a chance, you'll be blown away... great TV, THX certified picture (with THX calibrated presets), beautiful flush screen and bezel, it looks like art to me!

Sounds pretty awesome - I still haven't seen the -800 in the flesh.
THX hockey game, nice!

For your price id wait on a 50" 850u, might be in your range. The 800u Panny is $2370 in a 50"

Quite a few places. It was $2,200 on Amazon last week. It's fluctuating.

Bluoholic · 06-04-2008, 06:36 PM

than 46 should be a little bit cheaper, little under 2 grand perhaps. by the time I will start looking maybe I can find it for 1500-1700

thanks

ninja edit: amazon has 46 for 2000.. k back on topic

I own a Pioneer Kuro 5010 and love it. I just got an e-mail today from Pioneer telling me that they have it on sale now for $3k, 40% off list, which is $5k. This is a steal of a deal. I will post the contents of the e-mail with the coupon code if you want to try and get one. They also have the 60" Elite Kuro for about $4200, which is also a great deal.
