This looks good for consumers sure, but it's near-useless to professionals who need the colors to be accurate, to match exactly on the screen and on the printed photos.

Not sure about the LGs, but the sonys have colour filters and their patented something something, and once calibrated with a probe it looks pretty accurate. Still I would take a CRT over them anytime, but these screens are pretty light and much more easy to carry around than a crt and they save space in the van/car. Then again these screens are quoted to have around 30000 hour life time and considering the price it is not suited for mass market imo. @Lawfer, yeap, but there are other manufacturers that do offer similar screens for that market, like JVC and Panny |

PVM-1741 = 3500€...
You don't have to tell me twice. But I did once buy a TV for that price , one of those Sony's Bravia XBR2 in 2006, SD content (Playstation 2, Wii) and pretty much anything non-HDMI looked absolutely horrendous, plus the screen died on me after maybe 200 hours of use. New technology is always overpriced and far from perfect. |

But most companies use LED Backlight now from what I've seen, as a matter of fact the Pro Monitors from JVC all use LED backlight, while the most highend ones all use RGB LED (DreamColor, W2420R, IP240ex, 324i). The reason Sony doesn't use LED on their pro monitors is because these monitors from the LUMA line are a couple years old already (2007, 2008, 2009). Though the fact that the high end color critical accuracy monitors all use either RGB LED or CCFL (Eizo, NEC, HP, Quato, LaCie, Dell, LG) instead of regular LED backlighting may be an indication that regular LED is not as good as it should be. Also I read that the lifespan of regular LED monitors is lower compared to the lifespan of CCFL and RGB LED, also display that use regular LED tend to turn blueish with time, similarly seen with CCFL display that tend to turn yellowish with time. |

Plasma is another alternative, but don't think they do small plasmas anymore and even then some screen do suffer from phosphor trails. Besides that they aren't really suitable as a computer monitor, static image aso. Since you already got a premium TV, maybe you should use that to view anime and get a decent monitor for your other work. You can get a small server, think HP are doing a cashback deal on their amd powered ones, to store your anime collection and that way you can share those between all your terminals, like notebook, pc, ps3, TV, tablet aso. |

I have a normal LED TV (Samsung UE40C6000) and there is absolutely no blueish tone to it.
The colors are the best I have seen so far. Placing a fullscreen high-res picture on it looks amazing. It didn't cost a fortune either. Less than most of the monitors discussed in this thread... So if TVs like this exist, I really doubt that no one is able to build a decent LED monitor. You should just go around and pick one that looks good instead of buying into all the marketing gibberish that's trying to sell you the latest most expensive crap. This thread is heading into videophile territory... |
