In this post the quality of tv’s is mentioned. Low and behold the LCD overpriced tv’s picture quality was not as clear as a ten year old regular tv thats not LCD. I find myself having to agree. I recall even before the LCDs were affordable to all in the UK an aquantance of mine purchase a large projector size LCD tv.

Yes it was actually the size of those projecter screens one projects slides and movies onto from the pc and the like. The first thing I said when I saw it on the wall I believe was “its black!”However I soon noticed that if you saw the screen from a certain angle the picutre was a bit clearer.

Not much has changed it seems as my regular size tft tv/pc monitor/cd/dvd/mp3 player doesn’t have the same quality as an old crt tv either even with all the other things it can do. You know I much prefer the old TVs for picture quality even if they were a bit bulky.

So lets think of some positive things to say about those old massive TVs to give a few props to Enigin Geek for bringing this up:

For starters you can watch your favorite programes and special events with no problems. Those once in a while live events of national interest such as the world cup mentioned in the blog above are great to watch in full colour with no black areas no matter what angle you view the screen. Next, they don’t fall off the wall and smash if you don’t hook the bracket up proper or try and put them on them on a wall shelf. Those square box type crts or much more steady even if a bit heavier.
