Better in this case is subjective.Better for me means not bright or boomy. It doesn't have to be clinically precise, but pleasing to the ears in music mode. In movies I still want dynamics although not of the house shaking kind because I'm more into music than movies. Of course the system has to have decent movie effects, explosions, music soundtracks, and most important of all clear dialogs.
With regards to plasma displays, I can live with the imperfections because there are many things I like about it. For one you don't need a dark room and other devices (excluding the source) just to get good pictures from it. Also it acts as my TV and we have 5 or 6 local stations already in DTV and many of their OTA broadcast is in HD. Last but not least there is DirecTV. Bottom line is I have lots of choices and the system is quite flexible and easy to setup and operate.
One thing I'm curious about is how will a plasma monitor react to speaker magnets?
Follow Ups:
I suspect it won't like it one bit, but you need to check with the manufacture.Plasmas are nice in terms of "gee whiz" appeal, but that's the extent of it to me.
Give 'em 5 or 6 years, and we'll discuss 'em again :-)
