Plasma or LED TV?

Ayt Cinephiles time to revive the age old question - Plasma or LED TV???

 

I just thought its was a timely topic because I bought a 60" Plasma Panasonic Viera ST60 and a 55" LED Vizio M-Series (M551d-a2r) last Black Friday (DISCLAIMER: I'm not rich, IT WAS JUST TIME LOL) and seriously both were really good buys. I'm a Plasma guy and buying the Panasonic ST-60 was a no brainer (only TV that has a 5-star rating) and at the same time I thought that the Vizio M551d-a2r was better (and cheaper) than its Samsung and LG counterparts. Plus, for your info, Plasma king Panasonic will stop producing Plasma TV's next year leaving Samsung and LG the only other choice for Plasma lovers which sucks basically LOL. I know there are 401k TV's out in the market as well but I think it will take some time for their prices to come down to be realistically "available" for mass consumption so I'm not including them in the comparison.

 

So for argument's sake, I'm gonna start the discussion by saying that nothing can beat PLASMA TVs. So man up (or girl up), choose and defend your answer!

 

:)

 

I returned the ST-60, upped it and got a VT-60. Best. Decision. Ever.

 

Anyway, you might wanna get your Plasmas now. Amazon has jacked up prizes for the VT and ZT series. I bought mine for 2.5k, now they're selling for 3.5k and it ain't even brand new.

I think technology wise LED wins. However for some purists, the deep blacks of plasmas can't be beat. I think it's also what's found in most "serious" home theaters.

 

Same thoughts as sir nullendvoid:

For the hard core purists the additional shades of black in plasma are the swing votes. I however prefer LED. I don't need the additional shades of black. Blu-ray, a good HDMI cable, using an LED screen and I'm happy.
