Following my last post http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=116952 I have been thinking.
The advice seems to be that the best way to go is to buy a HD-Monitor eg the pioneer (or wait to the new pioneer comes out) and to buy expansion card +/- scalers.
This is an area that i have not considered before - and seems logical to presume that this way one can add better components and put together an even better plasma.
Just to remind others - I wish to connect a digi-box and 2 dvd players to the plasma - audio not require (have av receiver) nor gaming.
So my questions are:
1. Has anyone else done this and have they been successful in terms of better PQ for sources.
2. Which scaler/ card is the best and why. In which way do these cards improve on the companies own tv/ tuner version of the plamsa.
3. Are there scalers incorporating automatic resizing of the screens.
