Best DLP on a budget

[Sounds Good]

ok to make a long story short, i am selling my house and buying a condo and ill need to get a new TV...

i dont really watch much TV, mostly (80%) movies and (10%) video games, and (10%) TV (which might change once i discover HDTV)

anyhow i am looking for a 45"+ screen DLP set... i dont really need a crazy big 60"er, id like something that can hang on the wall but thats not all that important...

i am a freak about features, so the more bells and whistles the better.. but overall picture quilty is of utmost importance...

i have budgeted, realisticly.. $2500, but if there is that got to have set for 3000 ill spend the extra 500 if its worth it....



just want to get some imput...

Thanks guys....

I'm not really sure what your looking for

If you want a DLP to hang on the wall, are you wanting a projector and screen? If you are looking for something around 45"+ are you looking for a table top unit?

Or are you looking for a plasma/LCD unit to hang on the wall?

shoot... sorry i should have said...

id like to get a LCD or a rear projector... not to sold on plasma yet.. but what ever falls in the budget i will definatly consider.....

Ahhh..

bought my in Jan-06 and it's already to small even at 44".So, go as big as your budget will allow.Brands to look for in dlp I looked at 3 SAMSUNG,TOSHIBA & LG! I picked the lg with all things being equal because of the longer warranty.
PS: MY ADVICE GO BIGGER OR GO HOME

well i normaly would agree with you... but the condo i am getting the room is about 13x13 (guessing) so a 60"+ would be an overkill... i am thinking something in the low 50" range would be perfect...

Just remember 1ft of distance for every 6" of screen or there abouts.
Good luck!!

after looking at a few differant models i think for simple cost effectiveness i am going to look at rear projectors...

i like this one.. seems like alot of bang for the buck http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7820343&type=product&productCategoryId=cat03006&id=1142294494194

Well, all I can is good choice some of the guys here have Mitsubishi dlp tvs.Oh, that svs pb2 plus 2 sub, now that would be overkill for your 13x13 room!
Like the way you think, do it right the frist time
