Flat screen televisions and HDTVs have quickly become one of the hottest consumer electronics on the market today. Flat screens, once only within reach of the ultra wealthy, can now be had for a fraction of what they used to go for. We post dozens of plasma, LCD, LED, DLP, and rear-screen projection TV deals on a regular basis. Depending on the technology you go with, 50” screens can now be had for well under $1,000. Flat screen TVs are a great addition to any living room, and look great mounted on the wall or above a fireplace. MagnaSavings also lists
deals on flat screen TV mounts – everything from stationary
slim-profile TV mounts to articulating arm mounts that pull away from the wall, pan, and tilt.

LCD TVs are commonly recommended for rooms that have lots of direct sunlight, or are very bright. LCD screens tend to be much brighter than Plasma screens, and some have matte finishes on the screen further reducing glare from any direct light sources. Next generation LED backlit LCD TVs have extremely thin profiles, which sit extremely close to the wall, producing a very high-end unique look. LCD TVs also consume significantly less power than Plasma TVs. Plasma TVs, on the other hand, tend to give you a bigger bang for your buck, allowing you to purchase a much larger panel for the same amount of money you’d spend to get a smaller size LCD panel. Newer plasma TVs have overcome a lot of the downsides that plagued them during their initial days on the market, such as burn in, but those issues are largely a thing of the past.
For most living room arrangements, a screen size of approximately 37” should do fine. In fact, for rooms where viewers are a distance of six to ten feet from the screen, a screen size of 37” is recommended. For distances of ten to fourteen feet, a 42” screen size is recommended. For distances of twelve to sixteen feet, a screen size of 50” is recommended, and for distances sixteen feet and greater you’ll likely want a screen size larger than 60”. Of course, this is all just “recommended” distances and screen sizes – what you’re personal preference is can be a totally different thing, and there’s nothing wrong with that! Some people love having the largest 80” DLP Rear-Projection TV they can find right in their studio apartment, and we fully support that. Keep in mind, when you’re trying to size up your room for an HDTV, the actual HDTV width is typically anywhere from one to three inches less than the diagonal screen size of your TV, so a 65-inch TV can be anywhere from 62-64 inches wide.
Of course, with your new HDTV you'll need a
home theater system package of speakers and a blu-ray DVD player, or just a great deal on some
discount speakers if you're the do-it-yourself type of person. Our home theater deals
section features lots of discount "HTIB" packages, or Home Theaters in a Box packages, where the manufacturer includes all the necessary components for you, including a receiver, speakers, and the necessary cables. Otherwise, you'll need to create your own surround sound speaker setup using your own speakers, subwoofer, receiver/amplifier and cables. If you're the type of person who'd rather choose each and every component themselves, MagnaSavings can help with deals on everything you need to make it happen.
If you’re considering whether or not to wall-mount your new HDTV – consider this. Wall mounting a TV can really open the room up by placing a large piece of equipment on the wall, and hanging it like a picture frame. If your TV was sitting on a dresser or HDTV stand, this new surface becomes free of the TV and can be used for other storage, or as a place to put picture frames or other items. Even though the TV is skinny and flat, by placing it on a surface you’re effectively using up all of that space anyways because nothing can go in front of the TV. By lifting the TV up and hanging it on the wall, instantly all of that previously unusable space becomes available, and you’ve now got a sleek looking flat-panel TV up on display, and, with a
discount articulating wall mount arm, you can adjust the TV to virtually any angle that you find comfortable.
