Which is the best panel to buy for a BS3?

3 replies

Guys, I'm looking to upgrade the Sharp AQUOS I have hanging off a BS3, because it isn't HDCP-compliant (only sports a DVI connection). I'd love a BV9, but they are the price of a new family car.

I'd like to buy a 50 or 52-inch panel, preferably with high-def digital built-in tuner.

Should I go plasma or LCD? Should I look at 100Hz panels?

I'm thinking of Sony Bravia, Panasonic or Sharp AQUOS D64 types.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

You will also find that the Panasonic monitors have a curious RS-232 socket which bears a strong resemblance to the one on the BeoSystem 3.😕

 

Monitors, not TV's.

 

The BS-3 has the Digital tuner in it already (at least on this side of the pond.)
