Plasma has best HDTV picture: reader poll

TV Predictions:  In an online poll at TVPredictions.com, 35 percent of respondents said a Plasma set delivers the best HDTV picture.

Thirty-three percent said a LCD HDTV has the best picture while 27 percent said a DLP rear projection set offers the best high-def images. Five percent said the HD picture is the same on all the sets.

The poll is not scientific. But Plasma’s narrow margin of victory is evidence of the uncertainty in the marketplace over which High-Definition sets are the best performers.

Many people vigorously argue that one set’s technology is better than another. Our readers would prefer Pioneer’s 50-inch Plasma.

The flat-screen war between Plasma and LCD is the scene of most battles. Most industry observers say Plasma looks better in a darker setting while LCD fares better in well lit areas. But even that contention is disputed by some. However, everyone seems to agree that HDTV — regardless of which set you own — looks better than what we all watched before.
