Tell me about home theater setups; LCD vs Plasma TV's; HDMI; Blu-Ray players
Seamaiden and I are looking into our first large screen TV purchase using our income tax refund and gift money from our wedding. There are several promising models on special locally, including an LG 47" LCD TV for under $1000. I am a complete noob when it comes to this giant tv's (we are still watching a 19" CRT tv which is about 10 years old) so I need to bone up on the information quickly.
Does anyone have any insights that they'd like to share?
Things you wish you knew now that you didn't know when you bought your first TV?
Which is better: LCD or Plasma, and why?
What is HDMI and why do I need it? I've noticed that most TV's specify how many HDMI inputs they have.
Do I really need a new DVD player (with up converting)?
Will a Blu-ray DVD player play regular DVD's as well as Blu-Ray?
