I have pretty much decided the TV I want - its a 55" LED LCD from Sharp. I asked the guy if he stocked it, he didn't, but he then queried why I want LED anyway, because 'the HDTV broadcast here is not 1080p anyway'Instead, he suggested I get a cheaper fluro backlit TV and he could sell me a HT Receiver and speaker package, with upscaling to 1080P so I 'can enjoy the full capabilities' of my new TV![]()
He also tried to dissuade from that screen size, not even interested in the fact that this TV is replacing my projector so I am about to suffer a screen reduction of 45% anyway!!![]()
Aside from the fact I have a Denon/Dynaudio HT at home and he was trying to push me to Sony, I couldn't believe this guy was actually drawing this correlation between screen resolution and the backlighting technology in use. I defninitely dont have my finger on the pulse lately when it comes to Displays, but I hate to think how badly the bulk of people are being misled by salespeople like this, in stores like this!
