Basic settings when choosing a TV

Today, a huge number of TV sets of various models, types, sizes, etc. are on sale. How with such a large number of products offered, make a successful purchase?

First, you need to correctly determine what kind of TV is right for you, where the electronic creation will be placed, whether you want to often transfer it from one room to another or it will be extremely rare. Once you have decided on the main parameters that a TV must have, you can review all its other functions in detail.

The main parameters when choosing a TV are: size, type, main advantages, possibilities and methods of connection, the number of colors, sound and much more. First, you need to determine the optimal size for you TV screen, taking into account the size of the room, so that viewing the TV shows was comfortable and consistent with all your desires. If you want to put the TV in a niche, it is best to ensure that between the TV and the walls of the niche there are gaps to ensure a free air exchange. Do not buy a large TV if there is not enough free space in your niche.

Doctors say that the optimal viewing distance is two and a half meters. However, you can not clearly agree with this statement, because the load goes not only to the eyes, but also to the organs of hearing. In addition, there are TVs, the screen of which is designed for viewing at further distances. The type of TV and screen are the same basic parameters that must be taken into account when buying. For example, a liquid crystal screen near will create distortions in form and color, but it is safer for the eyes and health of the person as a whole.

Today, a large niche in the TV market is occupied by the kinescope model. They have advantages over LCD screens, but there are many more drawbacks, unfortunately. These include: flashing during the display of the image, extremely large weight with a small screen size, unsuccessful use of technologies to reduce the rays that have a negative impact on the person's vision, too low screen refresh rate. Among the merits of a kinescope model, only a long service life (up to 20 years) and a relatively low price are singled out. But when choosing a TV it is necessary to think not only about price and long service, but also about the quality of broadcasting.

LCD TVs have great advantages in comparison with kinescopes, except perhaps the period of their storage. Today such models are more promising and most likely for such TVs the future of broadcast technologies. Their advantages include: no flashing, low weight and a wide variety of sizes, less power consumption, a rich display life (more than 60,000 hours), better image quality. The disadvantages of the model can be attributed to the fact that at different distances, the shades of colors will also be different. From time to time, glowing dots appear on the screen. Great response matrix. Such a TV today will be more relevant than a kinescope, but its value so far remains beyond the understanding of many layers of the population.

An important parameter of the TV is its brightness. It is the main factor of what quality will be when watching TV in rooms with different lighting. The bright sun, or vice versa, the lack of a large amount of light should not affect the comfort of watching TV. The most optimal brightness value is 350-400 cd / sq. M, which allows you to watch channels in different conditions and with different lighting in any room. However, the screen must never be exposed to direct sunlight. No TV set is configured for such lighting and this can seriously affect its quality. Do not place the screen directly in front of the window or free light access, otherwise you will not get any viewing pleasure, and electronics will deteriorate every day.

The main parameters when choosing a TV should be given still more preferences than sound quality and connectivity to other sources. But, if you want to feel all the comfort and functionality of the purchased product, then do not be lazy to find out about all the parameters of the TV. For example, modern TVs can be connected via USB to DVD, a personal computer and other devices. Do not be lazy to check if your antenna input is suitable for the TV socket, otherwise after the purchase you will also spend money on the adapter for it. It is very important when buying a LCD TV to make sure that it has several digital outputs. This will be a great gift for you, in case you want to use these connections for simultaneous operation of a DVD and, for example, a game console. If you do not take this fact into account beforehand, then you will have to change the entrance each time from one to another.

The TV should suit you not only as the source of the image, but the sound should also match your desires. More modern models have a digital amplifier, in order to ensure maximum sound quality. Most likely, you buy a TV set with speakers, which must also match the quality of the TV. It is best to buy speakers with a power of about 10 watts.

The parameters when choosing a liquid crystal and kinescope TV are very similar. The main thing is to choose the model that will suit you in all parameters. Do not look for "select" models or TVs with some new technologies. They may not like you, and as a result they will leave a bad impression about the quality of TVs in general. If you are looking for something that is right for you, then take it safely and do not think about popular brands or models. Many disdain to take kinescope TVs only because they are no longer fashionable, although this is far from the case. For some people, they will become even better than any liquid crystal screen and will last for a very long time. Do not be afraid to make a choice and your courage will necessarily pay off with pleasure.
