What You Need To Know About DLP HDTVs
By Jim Johnson

HDTV is definitely the wave of the future when it comes to television viewing technology. It appears that high definition television broadcasting will start to come into it's own this year and progressively become dominant in the next couple of years. What that means for you is a much sharper image, better sound, and in turn, an improved television viewing experience.

Ever since the advent of cable and satellite TV services, the march toward entirely digital TV signal broadcasting has been taking place. Because of the limitations of the older analog TV broadcasting methods, digital signals were just not practical, but now that other methods of transmitting the TV signal are in widespread use, the switchover to the digital TV age is in high gear. And that has paved the way for high definition television standards that can make the fuzzy, unclear TV pictures of yesterday a relic of the past.

Along with the march toward better signal broadcasting, TV hardware has been steadily improving as well, and now we actually have three main competing technologies for displaying the screen image, LCD (liquid crystal display), DLP (digital light processing), and plasma TVs. They all are available in much thinner configurations than TVs of yesteryear, because the old bulky CRT monitors that have been used for so many years are on their way out. They also are capable of producing a much sharper and more colorful picture than past televisions too, and that bodes well for HDTV compatibility.

DLP TVs are the most recent technology to become commonplace in the television display field, although the technology has actually been in place for a while now. DLPs can produce an incredibly bright and high contrast screen picture that is absolutely stunning when viewed in tandem with a HDTV signal. They are also available in increasingly larger sizes and the prices are dropping rapidly as this display format becomes more commonplace. In addition, they lend themselves to a wide range of uses and can be connected to almost any digital video source that you wish to use, even your home computer.

So if you haven't seen the beauty of a HDTV signal being displayed on a DLP monitor yet, do yourself a favor and visit a local electronics retailer to see it for yourself. You will be glad that you did!
