Buying A Television Like the Panasonic Viera TX-L37S10

By Shirley Merritt

Buying a TV can be overwhelming when you begin to see just how many different options are going to be thrown your way. All shapes and sizes, thousands of different features, and then multiple brand names to choose from. You need to have a certain amount of TV knowledge in order to make the right choice. Like the difference between analog and HDTV.

It helps if you have an idea about if you need S-video inputs or not. Also if you may want or need RCA jacks in front. What about a digital comb filter? And will any of these things influence the quality of my viewing a movie or sports event? Questions like this will indeed pop up when you start shopping for your TV. So it's best to be prepared with some knowledge about such things.

It's been a long time believed in this country that the bigger something is the better is must be. That doesn't always apply, especially in the field of electronics. And as far as your TV goes, it needs to fit the space you intend it for. Smaller ones have you squinting, and larger ones are a blur if they're not right for that room. You really need to fit the TV to the room when considering what size.

TV screens get measured from diagonal points of the screen, not top to bottom or side to side. Knowing this helps you to figure what size you will need for your particular viewing room. The flat-bottom TVs are very popular, but when buying one you need to take into consideration that they won't take up near as much space, say, as the old regular one you're replacing.

If you're going to shop for one that's at least forty inches or more, then give some consideration to buying a rear-projection CRT. These babies have been the favorite of home theaters for lots of years. They combine the screen with the projector type function for a very good picture.

The CRT type TV utilizes three cathode ray tubes for combining it's main hues of red, green, and blue. These types of TVs have been the mainstay of home theaters for many years. They present you with a better investment per dollar, and they always have a great picture with good black level quality.

If there are any drawbacks to the rear-projector CRTs, it's that they're heavy and deep in the back. They also don't perform well under bright lighting. They're hard in the maintenance department and their viewing angle can be quite narrow. But the quality as far as color and picture go is hard to compete with.

Now take your flat panel plasma TVs on the other hand. They're rolling out of the stores like wildfire. They're slim and have large screens, which makes them ever popular with consumers. You have your choice of either 'LCD' or 'Plasma'. The LCDs function much like a laptop computer. And the Plasma TVs operate by lighting up thousands of little small fluorescent lights.

Buying a TV like the Panasonic TX-L37S10 can be overwhelming, unless you educate yourself a bit and learn about the basic differences in them. Remember this about the plasma TV. It has a higher resolution than the CRTs through the use of digital signals. But some of them can still fall short of displaying the total resolution of an HDTV. That's why they're called enhanced-definition rather than high definition. It pays to do a little research before you shop.
