It has become must to expose some persisting myths, some of
which are more pernicious half-truths and flat-out untruths about
them though the consumer are enthusiast for those super-model
-thin, sleek plasma television displays. These rumors are
probably due to by any number of unscrupulous TV salespeople
to push extended warranties on otherwise unknowing "marks"
-- people who have already spent $5000 on a new TV and would
have no compunction about shelling out another $250 more,
provided it will help safeguard their investment.


The idea that the ionized gases inside plasma displays either
need to be replenished periodically or can be refilled is patently
untrue because phosphors are unchangeable every 3,000
viewing miles. A high-definition (HD) plasma TV beats and
enhanced-definition (ED) Plasma TV every time is not always true.
HD plasma displays are more expensive than their ED
counterparts but it is also true. A good ED plasma TV will many
times out perform an HD plasma TV.

The days in the mid-90s when plasma TVs started at $10,000
and had virtually no price ceiling and now with the growing
demand for plasma displays, coupled with advancements in
production efficiency, as well as the defect rate of Japanese
-made plasma TVs in the U.S. have conspired to bring plasma
TV prices back down to earth. You can get larger, better
performing plasma TVs for a fraction of the price you might
have just a couple years ago.

Plasma TVs are engineered to have the best possible pictures.
Few people realize that some consumer electronics
manufacturers ship their TVs "hot" -- that is, preset to
compensate for higher-than-average ambient light levels, like
the ones found in most electronics superstores. M so it is a
good idea to take a look at the various PICTURE/CONTRAST
settings already built in to your TV and identify the right one
for your home. You can certainly mount your plasma on just
about any wall in your houseand for that no technician is
necessary. The rumor that Plasma TVs give off a lot of
radiation is not completely true, it do generate a tiny amount
of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and this radiation extends no more
than an inch outward from the screen. Another misconception
about Plasma TVs are that they are plagued by problems with
burn-in or image retention. Pixels do not suffer burn-in singly,
but it occurs in the shape of a static image that linger on TV
screens which can be improved by incorporating green
phosphors. With a modicum of caution, most plasma TVs will
probably never have a problem with image retention. Plasma
TVs are excessively fragile things using two sheets of
compressed glass taking care to keep the Tv always upright.
