This is a two part question:

I currently have a Sharp Aquos LC-C4655U and I would like to get a new plasma for my HT/gaming. I want to keep it around 1k and probably from best buy so i can finance it. I also want 3D (impossible?) I was thinking of something at least 50" or bigger.

Also I have the Jamo S606 and hooked them up to my dads old Sony STR-D2090 (which sounded great by the way) and I was trying to get a Denon receiver for it but can't decide which one. I used to be huge in to technology but I seem to have lost my touch. :-(

I haven't decided which room all this will go in. It will either be the living room or a spare bedroom. I'm leaning towards the living room since that is where I normally entertain.

Your question is probably too broad.

Especially, would try posting the receiver portion under an Audio heading, and even then it is not realistic to expect very many people to take the time to look up 6 different models - or to Just Know the differences between them.

As for the panel, since you already know that you plan to purchase from Best Buy, what panels do they sell that meet your base requirements? What do you like / dislike about these?
Now post a couple of specific model numbers & you would stand a better chance of getting some at least semi-informed opinions.

Might also try taking a look at some of the Gaming forums - understand that owners sometimes post their opinions of various panels As Gaming Panels...

Good Luck!

Well on their website they only have a couple of plasma's that are 3D and are decently priced. I mean I just don't want to spend a lot of money and then be disappointed with the picture etc....

Best thing to do is put the TVs (brand, model number) you find in your price range from Best Buy, and post them here. You'll get plenty of responses that way.
