LCD televisions have come a long way in a short space of time and this article is intended only as guide to some of the better rated LCDs available, particularly if you are thinking of purchasing one.

Familiar manufacturers names head the list such as Sony, Samsung and Sharp. Let’s concentrate on some of the bigger models.

Sony

Sony has two sets well worth considering. Their 46 inch Bravia KDL-46XBR2 and the 40 inch KDL-40S2010. It depends on the size you want and with another football season upon us you may very well decide the larger screen model is for you and will be perfect for your home theater.

Sony models are hard to beat in performance and picture quality. The 46 inch KDL-46XBR2 has full 1080p HDTV resolution plus excellent video quality and to satisfy your better half, it just plain and simple looks good even when it’s not operating. The smaller KDL-40S2010 model is priced closer to $2000 but is packed full of feature.

Sharp And Samsung

Both Sharp and Samsung have rapidly climbed towards the top of the home theater LCD television rankings.

Sharp has an impressive array of larger screen models up to 52 inches. The LC-42D62U 42 inch is hard to go past. Large screens are great but for something a little in between this model offers powerful features including excellent high definition, super picture quality and the looks to match.
