Best bang for the buck TV right now?
In the market for a new 42-46" TV in the up to $1500 range, but I dont think I need to spend more than $1000 these days.
I prefer LCD over Plasma. I dont care about 3D. Is LED at a level thats worth looking into yet?

I've owned an LCD, LED, and 2 Plasmas... hands down the Plasmas had the best picture and were the best bang for the buck.
Here's a thread with a lot of info to help with your decision...

LED screen will need 1000-1500
LCD screen can go below 1000
Personally, I can't see any difference. I'd buy whichever fits my budget

no openbox in kelowna. no BB either.
I want to go LCD/LED because my TV is right beside a MASSIVE window with afternoon sun and its a really bright room.
Had a 42" Sharp LCD for 3 years that I had absolutely no complaints about but it moved with my roomate.
Im sort of leaning towards a Sony 46EX500 at this point, but still looking. Need to buy a TV before game 2

Look at the new Panasonic E3 series. Great TV's.
If you can find a Panasonic U25 LCD (try London Drugs, Future Shop), it's a slightly older unit with good features and 120Hz. Great panel on it IMO. Also a great deal right now.
