Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?
| | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.

VIZIO E550VA 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV, Black Reviews
| 24 of 24 people found the following review helpful This review is from: VIZIO E550VA 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV, Black (Electronics) This tv doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it's fine for sd, hd movies and gaming with the xbox. When gaming make sure you put in the right mode for that. This will shut-off all of the extraneous processing of the signal that isn't needed. I played Halo, (legendary level), and had no problems at all. It was as responsive as the old CRT that it (finally) replaced. The graphics when gaming were just absolutely stunning...I keep the "smooth motion" setting turned off most of the time. For one thing it creates too much of the "soap opera effect" when turned up on medium or high. I think all lcd based tv's are the same too. The picture looks just fine without it. Most of the "break-up" or blurring seen at the stores is due to the cable signal being split between so many units. The smooth motion setting does come in handy with live, fast action sporting events though. I was just a bit leary of purchasing this unit but wanted to stay on a budget...

However, there are some things that a buyer should know prior to purchasing any LCD.Because of the picture processing on some sets, sometimes there will be video lag. This is a known issue for all brands of lcd televisions with picture post processing. To accommodate for this issue, newer DVD and Blu Ray players have a delay setting for audio so you can sync up the audio to the delay caused by the picture processing. However, the delay obviously won't do for gaming. If you want to configure the set for gaming, it's a simple process - 1> Go to your picture options, then set the picture mode to the gaming preset 2> At the bottom of the menu, select "more" for additional options 3> In the additional picture options, ensure that: > Smooth motion is off (this is the picture post processing that makes it look like you're on set) > Fast response is on. 4> Enjoy...

My question is, why? I heard some saying they have issues with this item. I don't have the problems others have. I paid $667. I would think about it if I had to pay regular price though. Especially if your going to experience problems. I have seen that the video tends to speed up to catch up with the audio, I think, when streaming on Netfix. As far as playing dvds and playing games, I have had no problems. |
