Several consumers will be picking up a new TV for Christmas – either for themselves or their loved ones. The experts in big screen TV’s, Paul’s TV inside Art Van Furniture, have put together five helpful tips for holiday shoppers:
Alphabet soup:
LED, LCD or Plasma TV? LED’s have richer color and are more energy
efficient. LCD’s are less expensive and have a matte finish and will
display better in brighter rooms. Plasma’s have the richest color
palette of all and the best viewing angles.
Numbers:
1080p is the term used mostly when identifying resolution. 1080p is
currently the most desirable resolution. The higher the resolution the
better the overall picture quality.
Cords:
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the best cable you can
purchase. It carries audio as well as video, and will give the best
picture and sound from one cord.
Installation:
If you are considering installing your HDTV professional installation
is highly recommended. Not only for safety purposes but what does one do
with all of the exposed wires? Professional installation guarantees a
worry free experience.
Save the Box:
Hang on to the box and the Styrofoam that your HDTV came in. This will
come in handy if moving or if something goes wrong and the unit needs to
be shipped back to the manufacturer.
