Re: Best 46 inch TV at the moment

If you've already gt a Pioneer Plasma at 43", why would you want to waste your money on a 46" screen? The extra 3" isn't goint to make any difference.

Certainly don't even consider changing from Plasma to LCD at that size, you will regret that for the rest of your life.

The only way is up, you'd have to get a major branded 50" plasma to get any benefit from your outlay - and at this point that outlay would not be worth it.

Keep the money in the bank and wait until Pioneer plasma 2.0, SED or OLED screens are available.

Re: Best 46 inch TV at the moment

The reason for the upgrade is Im one of those fools that need the latest technology and I feel Im missing out on 1080p. Sad I know

Yes it is!!! In fact some may say it's better than the premium x series which is an older model.
