In Reply to: In a similar vein...What's with all the plasmas stuck on a wall ? posted by michael w on April 2, 2007 at 20:12:56:
Two points draw comment.1. Flat panels do wonders for stereo imaging.
Only because the face of the screen is further away from the plane of the speakers.
Often used as feeble excuse for not placing the speakers properly, ie. well away from walls unless designed for such placement.This is also very speaker dependent.
IME with speakers that radiate a rear soundfield you don't want anything reflective on the wall like a plasma.2. Screen brightness is an issue.
Definitely a cause of eye strain, especially if you use a direct-view display in darkened room. Use of a 6500K rear bias light at the correct level is still recommended. Interesting to see some Philips plasmas fitted with what they call "Ambilight" which sabotages the bias light idea by using lighting that changes according to the on-screen content ...Ugh !
Good thing it's switchable.
