Best HDTVs (55 inches and above)
Giant HDTVs are as American as extended-cab pickup trucks and the Super Bowl. Incidentally, they display the Super Bowl really nicely and require a good-size pickup to get them home from the store. Here's where you'll find the biggest rear-projection models on the market, many of them 1080p models to fill those screens with as many pixels as possible. So if you've got the room, browse this list and revel in sheer size.
