Review summary
Although the JVC LT-47X898 has a few strong points, inaccurate color puts it a couple of steps behind the best 120Hz LCD TVs.
The midlevel Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV strikes an excellent balance between price and performance.
With the accuracy of its THX mode and great black-level performance, the Panasonic TH-50PZ800U is one of the best-performing HDTVs available.
Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs.
If you don't mind its red frame, the Samsung LN52A650 LCD TV will reward you with a massive feature set and excellent picture quality.
