Rear Projection HDTV

There are four styles of rear projection televisions. The least expensive of these of course is the CRT or tube based TV. Many people are still quite satisfied with these types of televisions however; others are looking for a more advanced viewing experience. For this reason, microdisplay has taken over the market. DLP or digital light processing televisions are just one of the styles offered with a microdisplay chip. There quality is likely to be determined by their expense. Most have relatively good pixel performance however; you might find a rainbow effect in some which means that you may find streaking of the colors especially in frames with a darker back view. The LCD or liquid crystal display television has a slightly better picture performance and eliminates the annoyance of the rainbow effect.

Myth has it that these particular styles degrade quicker than most other styles while this is unlikely it may do you well to investigate. Finally in rear projection, we have the LCoS or liquid crystal on silicon. This are said to have excellent pixel performance allowing for an essential image display. They are very detailed and highly compliment HDTV viewing. However, these types are much more expensive and are subject to burn in.
