I have a Panasonic 36" flat screen CRT,saw it after reading WHF mag & seeing it in store,brilliant picture,3 scarts & a component connection,no hdmi connections,Toshiba XDE-500 dvd player with hdmi & scart,Pana.dvd/hdd recorder,scart & hdmi.Denon receiver,no hdmi.
I was going to upgrade everything but having been in a neighbours home yesterday,she had asked if i could try to improve the pic on her 40" Sony.I think i made it a little better,it was actually already quite good,but have to say not as good as my CRT.My brother has a plasma 42" & this i think is not as good as my crt.
I have now decided that i will not change my tv at the moment,because i can't see that i would get a better picture unless i'm always watching HD or blu ray.
I don't have Sky & i'll be watching a great deal more SD than DVDs etc.I will be changing my receiver for the Yamaha 863 & was also going to get the Panasonic DMP- BD35,which would i think require a component connection to the TV instead of scart,at least i'll be ready if i decide to change the tv later.
Would this improve my tv picture for dvd or even blu ray & would connecting to the Yamaha by hdmi instead of digital improve the sound which is what i would really want,some DVDs sound is not always great.
