LCD, DLP, LCOS, Plasma and now OLED... it is tough to keep straight what the best HDTV is out there. On this forum you can learn everything you need to know to buy the best HDTV. You will even learn the best place to buy it online for an excellent price. You can read about other consumers first hand experiences with the TVs too. Cant say enough good things about this site.

Don't even think of buying a new HDTV without going to this website to learn more about it first. The guys on here are video geeks and know every single detail about pretty much every TV out there. It will take awhile to pour through all of the forum posts but it is well worth it.

Clearly the best site on the internet to learn about anything related to audio and video technology. The forums are a bit overwhelming at first though if you read it you will learn how to best shop for a new TV or speakers, etc...

Wonderful resource for AV knowledge - I first heard of AVSforum when I bought my first front PJ screen from AVScience years ago. The forum is also a useful tool for finding out the latest information on all sorts of AV gear. When I first got into HTPC, this was my main resource for setting up an entire home theater room. Everything from the front projector to the theater seats were all purchased based upon recommendations from this website. Later, when I furnished my office with plasmas and LCD HDTVs, I used the powerbuys off of the website to buy them. I would also highly encourage anyone who is active in the forums here to become an AVS club member, it is well worth the price of admission.

Great source of knowledge - started by some great guys who really know home theater, this is a valuable resource for AV gear. I have even bought a screen from them in the past and delivery was perfect.
