The Biggest and Most Expensive Plasma TV in The World

Author: Gabriel Torres Date: October 4, 2007 - 6:13 PM PST Have you ever heard of Panasonic's TH-103PF9UK? It is a 103" HD (1080p) plasma TV -- world's biggest --, coming also with the world's highest MSRP: USD 70,000. Ouch. But I believe that the stores carrying this product can give you a discount (none of them are listing the final price on-line, only the MRSP). By the way, it weights 474 Lbs (215 Kg), so besides money you will need to have at least four strong dudes to put this TV in place. But if you can pay that much on a TV hiring people won't be a problem for you. For the normal guy, buying a video projector is still the best option if you want an outrageous screen size. The prices have fallen below USD 1,000 for quite a while for non-HD projectors and even HD 1080p models like Sony's VPL-VW50 can be found at a very affordable price (USD 3,700 at Amazon.com, far below the USD 5,000 price tag from when it was launched) and it can easily project a 100" screen positioning the projector 17.5" (5.33 meters) away from the screen. Another interesting feature about this model from Sony is that it uses a proprietary version of LCoS technology. It is also nice to remember that with USD 70,000 you can buy 18 Sony VPL-VW50 projectors and still get USD 3,400 back.  Print Version | Send to Friend | Bookmark This Entry | Permalink | Comments (0) top
