Exceptional Viewing...
With the price of Plasma and LCD Flat Panel TV's coming down everyday, and with the ability to hang them on the wall, taking up no floor space; this technology is the choice in the majority of our media room systems. The viewable life expectancy of the newest Plasmas and LCD's has been extended up to 60,000 hours, that's 10 hours a day for over 16 years, not bad. There are no lamps to replace or services to perform, just turn it on and watch. If you have yet to experience true High Definition TV on one of these screens, let Continental work with you to make it happen! You will be left speechless!!
Incredible Picture...
All of the new Flat-Screen formats are HDTV sets and will produce varying qualities of picture. Without getting to technical we will briefly discuss each.
LCD- Liquid Crystal Display is a method of creating a picture by electro-magnetically manipulating a group of colored crystals in a small chip to make an image and then a light through the panel. LCD TV's are available in both rear projection and in flat screen formats. The rear projection method has the same off-axis problem as the DLP, but the flat screen method allows the set to be hung on the wall due to its 4" depth. The flat screen sets are becoming very popular due to cost, easy placement and vivid colors. If there is a complaint about LCD it is that because the light source shines through the panel, there is no truly Black image only varying colors of dark gray. And also that the refresh rate is slower than plasma; so while watching high speed contact, like live Hockey, the puck is not quite as clear.
Plasma- Still the king of picture quality, plasma sets are unique because they manufacture their own light source from a PDP panel. The panel energizes a series of Red, Green and Blue bits (pixels) causing them to light. Because there is no lens or offset, the picture quality can be seen clearly from all angles and heights. Plasma TV's, which were once tens of thousands of dollars, have come down in price amazingly and are very affordable. The majority of sets are less than 4" deep and are easily placed in any room. If there is a detraction to Plasma sets inherently, it is that they are subject to burn in. If a non moving image is left on the set for too long the image will be retained and burned into the panel. But as you know, both LCD's and even standard tube sets can fall victim to the same burn in problem, just take a look at your computer monitor.
Proven Value...
LCD and Plasma TV's have come down considerably in price since there debut. The question to ask though is "How cheap are they really?" This needs to be asked because the Big Box houses that sell TV's really cheap, DO NOT include installation. So your job is to find someone who is willing to take on the liability of installing your TV, knowing that if the TV is bad they will need to remove it from the wall, wait for you to get a new one, and then return to install it again at no additional charge. Most dealers charge between $500 and $750 to hang a TV on the wall with a flat bracket. Tilt and swing arm brackets are additional dollars, up to $800 more. Then the appropriate wiring has to be run and the remotes programmed. It is not unusual to hear of a customer buying a TV for $1500 and then paying $2000 to get it installed. Talk to your dealer and make sure you get an INSTALLED price.
