Hello,
My families 52" big screen rear projection TV just broke. The screen is all weird and the repair man said it would be better to just get a new TV. So we are researching them. We get a discount from Panasonic sinch my father works for UPS. It is pretty big, around $1000. Now we saw 2 TV's we really like. One was a LCD projection TV and one was a DLP TV. The LCD projection TV is cheaper and has a rebate. The DLP TV is more expensive. BUT which one is better?
Thanks!

better is subjective..

LCD shines light through a LCD screen and as such has a lower contrast ratio

DLP uses a color wheel that light is reflected off a TI chip. its the same ideal the High level Fiber Routers and Switches use.. reflect light with tiny "mirrors" on a chip.

you should go look at DLP and see if you get the rainbow effect. if not I personaly think DLP gives a better picture as its not a zoomed lcd..
