How To Choose The Right Plasma TV

Thursday, November 19, 2009 by hhgregg Product Expert
50" Samsung television

Shopping for a flat-screen television and unsure of whether you should go in for the 42 inch plasma HDTV television or the 62-inch plasma TV? There are a whole host of factors to keep in mind when choosing a plasma TV, and size is just one of the considerations:
  • Gain some tech know-how. Read up about the benefits of plasma technology: higher resolution, no scan lines, great color accuracy, flat screen, slim design, universal input capability, etc.
  • Size it right. Measure the space the TV will go into; allow at least 3"open space at the top and adequate space for ventilation behind the TV. Optimal viewing distance for a 37" plasma TV is 6 to 10ft; the distance should be 8 to 12 ft for a 42" plasma TV, 10 to 14 ft for a 50" TV and at least 14 ft for TVs that are 60" and more.
  • Resolution is key. An HDTV plasma television is worth the extra bucks you shell out for it: you will be rewarded with a much better display of high resolution computer signals. 
  • Crank it up. Check the quality on the inbuilt speakers. 15Wx15W is best. You can also choose to install surround sound in conjunction with your plasma TV.

Going by these criteria, the 60 inch LG plasma TV, the 50" Panasonic television and the 50" Samsung television are all great buys. Panasonic HD plasma televisions top most user surveys when it comes to performance and value-for-money.

Why Switch to Digital TV?

Thursday, June 4, 2009 by Brian Thomas
With all the media surrounding the digital transition happening whether you’re ready or not on June 12th, you find yourself asking why we are switching to digital in the first place. Besides, doesn’t analog work just fine anyway?

The obvious answer is that digital transmissions will give the consumer (you and me) a much better signal which ultimately gives us a better picture. Gone will be the days of a snowy picture. With a digital TV signal, you either have the images on your screen or you don’t.  The good news is it is much easier for your digital tuner to lock onto a signal.

Going to digital broadcasts allows the signal to be compressed. This will free up parts of the airwaves that can then be used for future innovative services. Not only that, but your local stations will also be able to broadcast more content on different sub-channels.

Not since the change to color television from black and white has a change in broadcasting been so important. Be sure that you are up to date and ready for the switch.

Get your DTV converter box from hhgregg if you don’t have one already.

June 12th is Approaching Fast, Are You Ready?

Wednesday, May 27, 2009 by Brian Thomas
With the deadline for the digital transition approaching quickly, a new study shows that only 2.7% of households are “completely unready” for the transition. This means that there are still some people out there who haven’t made it into hhgregg to get their digital TV converter box.

The new mandatory deadline is June 12th. If you are still watching TV through an antenna, now is the time to prepare yourself. Hooking up a digital converter box is as easy as connecting a DVD player.
