What are some of the best HDTV brands out there now?

Question

I could be in the market to getting a 42" HDTV 1080p, but I also don't want to spend too much money. There is a Magnavox 1080p on sale at Costco for $999, but I hear Magnavox isn't a very good brand, so I think I might skip that one. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

don't even bother with the magnavox!!. save up some more and consider:

panasonic.

LG.

samsung.

pioneer.

philips.

sony.

toshiba.

all of the above sets deliver excellent performance and have top notch specs-obtain any one of the above and you won't be disappointed-a word of advice though-as with anything else HDTV's can break down so get some extended warranty as they are notoriously expensive to repair if they go b***s-up.
