How much does tax on a tv usually cost, and what do you think of these two tv’s?

1 Comment

I’m 16, and I’m planning on buying a new 3d tv, and I need to know how much the tax on this tv is going to be because I’m going to be on a $3000 budget. That’s probably what I’ll make this summer since I’m only working two months. The links for the two tv’s I’m debating about are below. Which do you prefer? I want a tv with amazing breathtaking picture, and at least above average 3d visuals. Which tv is right for me? I notice that the cheaper one is plasma, and the more expensive one is led-lcd hd. Is the led-lcdhd tv more expensive because its picture quality is better? What’s up with that?The led-lcd tv’s customer reviews say that the picture is unbelievable. Does the led-lcd tv make the plasma one look ugly when they’re compared? Does plasma suck? Which do I buy? I’d like to buy the cheaper one so I can have some leftover money to buy some extra stuff, but I don’t want to buy it if it sucks asss. lol Don’t forget to answer the tax question. I live in California if that helps. Thanks.

LED-LCD HD TV – http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+46%22+Class+/+1080p+/+240Hz+/+3D+LED-LCD+HDTV/9843853.p?id=1218182337019&skuId=9843853
By the way, if you have had experience with these new 3f tv’s, can you give me a link to the one that you think is best? And do you think the tax would be on this one? The bigger the tv (in inches), the harder my penis gets. If the plasma one fits my standards though, I may just go with that one.

Plasmas are cheaper because…..well…they are "older" tech, being around for a long time in the bigger sizes. LED LCD sets are just the newest things out there, latest tech. One thing to keep in mind is that for action/sports/etc plasmas still blow any lcd tv out of the water with image clarity (less blurriness). That ledlcd has a 240hz refresh rate, whereas that plasma has a 600hz subfield motion refresh rate. the higher the number the more times an image is displayed on the screen for clearer transition from one frame to another. with led sets, the dynamic contrast ratio plasmas had that no one could touch is being provided by leds. so between the two as far as darker blacks and whitest whites i’d say they both are comparable. another thing to plasmas are that they are faster in response time for switching from the darkest dark to whitest white, in this case .001 ms. lcd sets are usually like .4 or .04, considerably less. im a fan of plasmas, expecially for movies and tv watching. great for gaming too.

you’re gonna get people who cry about burn in, which, it still can happen on newer sets but takes a considerable amount of time for it to happen. and samsung along with other manufacturers have built in features on the tv to combat that. one being pixel shift and a scrolling bar. led’s will use about 40% less energy than a traditional lcd set, and lcd sets use about half of that of a plasma (i forget exact numbers). and a plasma without calibration will cost about 60ish dollars to run during an entire year….a whole year. not that big of an issue these days, just change out two or three lightbulbs to energy saver ones and you’ll more than make up for it.

longevity will be about the same. it’s funny how many people walk into our store and say plasmas only last 2 or three years. Your big names like panasonic and samsung rate their plasmas from about 60k to a little over 100k hours. same goes for both ledlcds and lcd sets. chances are you’ll switch out your tv way before then.

true, plasmas arent to be layed down, aren’t recommended for high altitudes (over 6.5k ft or something like that). but theyre picture is still amazing. check out the demo bb has for samsungs and Panasonic for 3d sets.

size wise, ppl are saying led’s thinness is the way to go and anything else is silly. well, plasmas are getting thing too, less than 1.5 inches, in fact the plasma you selected is one of those thin models, Panasonic has sets like that also.

Plasmas ftw. and oh. 3d? why? gotta buy glasses that are, for now 150ish a piece..although samsung hasthat free 3d kit when you buy the 3d blu ray player. unless you have a player that’ll just need firmware upgrade to handle it.
