Looks like he is banned, but I'm guessing it was the Vizio E65-C3.

I definitely want to upgrade my 4 year old Panasonic plasma, but Vizio scares me sometimes. And my plasma still looks great.

Re: Plasma or LCD? - The TV Thread

Are there any good 4k 3D 60 inch TV's yet for around $1000? I am not yet getting a new TV but I have a 37 inch 720p that up scales to 1080p that I have had for about 8 years. TV's have went down in price a lot but I know 4k is still kind of up there but going down. When I got my 37 inch TV I got it for like $600 and at the time it was $100 of so normal price was $700. Now I see that same kind of TV for like $400 and I see now TV's that are like 55 inch costing me what my 37 inch cost me. I think in a few years I will up grade to 4k and go bigger and just wondering how much a 4k 3D 60 inch TV may cost in like 2 years or so. I am not sure how long 4k has been a thing. I had never heard of 4k up in till 2013 and never saw a place with k4 TV's in till just this year but man they look great!

I suggest doing a little bit of research on 4K tvs first. Read something about 10 bit vs 8 bit panels. 10 bit panels are suppose to be "future" proof. Something about full color spectrum or something. Something about most 4k tvs available today are 8 bit panels. Another thing that I came across was something about 4:4:4 and 4K tvs.

Anyways, research first before throwing cash at any affordable 4K tvs. I'm not going to have any answers because I'm not currently looking for any new TVs.

www.avsforum.com is probably your best bet to get started.

While I think it will be a few years. I will most likely want in till my lamp goes out on my TV in a few years. Had it replaced just at the begging of last year.

I have never even heard about 10 bit and 9 bit panels before and I am not sure about 4:4:4 either. I think I have looked at that sight before. Yeah I tend to look on the internet at like the best TVs of the year and consumer reports and such to get a idea.

So looks like next month I'll be getting the LG EF9500, since my Samsung 60UN6100 is trying to die on me.

I ended up upgrading my 5 year old 50 inch Panasonic Plasma with this below.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-60-class-60-diag--led-1080p-smart-hdtv-black/5415113.p?id=1219650467426&skuId=5415113

I know I'm not up to speed with the 4k stuff, but i have like 2 channels that support 2160p. None of the next gen systems support it, well Xbox One is suppose to be able to down the line. I figure by the time that is mainstreamed or whatever, I'll be buying a new one anything. Worst case, this new TV goes into the living room and i get a new one for the man cave. LOL

I'd just google them. If you come across results for AVSforum.com head that way.
