Dlp Vs Lcd Projection Tv

TV… Everybody wants it, everybody has it. So... does it really matter what type is it? Yes, it really matters, because it can make a huge difference. If you are trying to buy a projection TV, you really have to know what to choose. It's not just simply a TV, it's much more than that; it's the pleasure of enjoying every second, every image, every sound.

So, what's the difference between DLP vs LCD projection TV's?

Let just imagine that you enter a store full a TVs, where do you start from? The biggest question of nowadays is DLP or LCD? What should you say when the shop assistant asks you? But first of all what DLP and LCD means exactly? Digital Light Processing (DLP) uses a small device to tilt micro mirrors in or out of the direction of the white lamp position inside the television set. All of this is needed to create a light or dark pixel depending on the amount of the light. This kind of technology can produce for example 1024 grey shades.

And the LCD, even if they look different they are pretty much the same. A matrix of transistors supplies the voltage necessary to some crystal cells. The cells are positioned between two sheets of glass and they react to light signals.

The battle is very tight. DLP Vs LCD projection TV sounds like a final game. Why should LCD win? Just because it's: very sharp, crisp high-def picture, supports 720p (Sony grand wega); no burn in; lightweight and slim.

But DLP scores also: smooth, jitter free images, amazing colour depth, no burn in, supports 720P (Samsung& pan.). But you're the referee, and the score of the game depends on you, by buying one of this you will say who's the real winner in the DLP vs LCD projection TV battle.
