Is this ok for a tv this size?

Question

is 700:1 Contrast ratio ok for a 23'' widescreen hd ready tv?

i know the lcd ones are known to not have a sharp picture, seems to be on those bigger ones.

would it still look good in HD say on ps3/blu ray

Answer 1

You want a minimum contrast ratio of 1000:1

That is the absolute minimum

Answer 2

i don't have a clue what you just said!!

but yea that sounds hot

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

700:1 contract is appallingly low, what also matters is the number of colours and brightness and response time of the tV. many LCD sets have figures over 10,000:1 for contrast now.

this will look washed out no matter what source its used on.

AVOID AVOID

Answer 5

Not really. For really sharp, clear picture it should be 4000:1 or above.  

Answer 6

The contrast ratio is a lot lower than you could expect from a decent LCD television these days.

It will not give a particularly good picture compared to others.

Answer 7

no that's horrible!!!

the black will look grey.

for that size you want something with at least 3000:1 contrast ratio
