Panasonic TC-P46s1 Perfect HDTV. Low price. Stunning picture. What more could you want?

I ordered the TC-P46S1 Amazon on July 6. TV was delivered exactly one week later by CEVA Logistics. Fantastic service!

Now, to all. I have two televisions in the past 15 years. The first is a 19 'Zenith CRT. The second was a good 27? CRT Apex that I bought from Sam's Club about seven years ago. I was waiting to buy a decent HDTV up to 1080p in September was available for a price I considered reasonable if amortized over a period of ten years. Each person has their own definition of reasonable, but I felt the time had finally arrived.

I researched this purchase for about two months. From the beginning, I decided I wanted to Panasonic plasma. Plasma is the only choice for those who want the best image possible at a price. The only question was which model and what size? There are three models in my price range when I decided to buy the X1, S1, and the G10. The X1 is the set of the range Panasonic 720p plasmas. It comes in 42 'and 50? sizes. For my distance (10 feet), 720p possibility was final. The series is lower S1 Panasonic 1080p Plasma line. The G10 is a step up from the S1 and includes a THX mode and Viera Cast, Panasonic Internet and video on demand service. A decent rule of thumb is that each step up the size of about $ 200 and each step in the type of model is about $ 200. For example, the 42 G10 is around the same price as 46 'S1, and 50? X1.

I created cardboard models of 42 ', 46? and 50 'series and placed where television is going to help you determine the correct size. It quickly became apparent that 42? is too small, while 50 is too big for my personal taste. The 46 'was perfect. Unfortunately, this eliminated the X1 Series statement because there is no 46 'in this line. I bought the X1 was available. This September is the best high definition for the money that is available now , IMO. Still, 46 'was the sweet spot for me, so I'll have to go to a better model. Now the question is should I go with the TC-P46S1 or TC-P46G10?

In my case, I was planning to buy the Panasonic DMP-BD60 Blu-ray to go with the whole. When I was ready to buy, Amazon offers $ 150 for the BD player when you buy in September with a S1 or $ 200 when buying a G10 in September. The price of the BD60 was $ 200 itself, so that the agreement is irresistible. The BD60 also offers Viera Cast, which would have duplicated this functionality, so I went with the G10 in September. Thus, the decision was whether I wanted THX for an extra $ 150. Ultimately, I decided the cost not worth it and went with the S1. I have no regrets about this decision at all.

The color and detail on this subject in September was fantastic. Watching the BBC Planet Earth Blu-ray in 1080p is impressive September inspiring! This package together with the BD60 is a match in the sky and a much better configuration than many other cost hundreds of dollars more. Colors more realistic (and perhaps more realistic with a few adjustments or a professional ISF calibration). It has many connections, including three HDMI inputs, however, I found that pairing with a good AV receiver that has HDMI is the number of connections on all relevance. Even the onboard sound on the TV is decent, but if you buy a TV of this caliber, you want to connect to a sound system worthy to enjoy the full home theater experience. The series also has an SD card slot for viewing photos, so that television can be held in a very large digital picture frame if you're so inclined.

One of the blows against the plasmas they are put off more heat than LCDs. Really, this is not a problem, IMO. The amount of heat generated is much less than a much smaller CRT. Yes, it is hotter than an LCD display, but are you really ready to live with all the defects of the LCD (least contrast range, the poor off-angle viewing, and poor black levels), just to have TV is a little cooler? Are you watching TV in your living room or a freezer? A review which is a possible concern is that the anti-reflection coating is not very effective. If you have any thoughts that you are unable to control, you want May to consider an LCD, although the best LCDs have glass panels instead anyway screens mats. Overall, I do not think you can buy a better TV for the money (well, maybe the TC-P50X1). Highly recommended!
