I'd post on that forum (Under speakers) with your requirements and let the audiophiles sort you out.

I bought What LCD & Plasma when I bought ours. I bought a LG LCD 32 inch one for the bedroom (it's quite a big room). I wasn't too fussed about this one as it won't be watched as often as the one downstairs. This one was about 500 but it is 6 months old now. The one I bought for the lounge was a sharp 42inch one as it scored highly on all the tests and was a 1080p one. It's LCD also and was about 950 6 months ago. It looks great when watching HD on it. Plasma is good for doing true black because LCD uses a big lamp inside. On the big screens plasma had the edge in terms of screen refresh, but that isn't the case now. I watch loads of football on it in HD and it's spot on. LCD use a lot less power than plasma and so give off less heat and they are a lot lighter which is important if you are thinking of putting them on the wall.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

Just make sure you get a separate amp with good connectivity (HDMI & optical) Pioneer, Sony, Denon etc.
Your best bet is to go to a large independent HiFi shop and listen to a few setups.
Tip: Leave you debit card at home so you don't make any rash decisions!
For TV’s if I was getting a very large screen I’d have gone for Plasma but as 37” was the max my room could realistically take I had to go for LCD.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Pinoeer Kuro without a doubt. Need to make sure you get the true 1920 * 1080 one though:

I don't believe Panasonic has ever been better than the real Kuro's.Comment
