Plasma if you can afford it.Rear projection (if that is what you mean)if you want big screen but have little money.Ctr if you don't care about size but want a nice and clear picture.

Actually the best looking picture I have seen was on a tube. But because of the price drop of some plasma that I have seen there really doesn't seem to be that much different pricewise. Your call.

i also think that the tube tv's are much clearer and have more contrast, i'm just curious which tv that was that you found being better than the rest.
