TV help

[phebus]

I want to get a flat screen tv to mount on the wall above my fireplace. I know there are different types (plasma, etc.) and would like to know what the best type is both for picture quality and for longevity. It needs to be hdtv, and compatible with the cox cable hd/dvr. I have 5'6" of width to fit it in, but something around 40-42" overall width would fit the space and look good above the mantle. I haven't shopped anything yet, and would like some knowledge going in.
Thanks

Talk to Roz. He's the man in this area.

Yea, I figured he would see this, as well as others that have dealt with him, and have info as well.
Thanks Jordy

I think I speak for ROZ when I say....Pioneer Elite.
P.S. How do you like the HD/DVR box? How does it compare to Tivo? I am thinking about renting one as soon as my HDTV get here.

We love the DVR. The big thing is that it couldn't be any easier to use. You use the same programing guide you normally use, and just push the record button. You can choose to record a program, or an entire series. Super easy, and it also has some great playback features.
Do you have one of the Pioneer Elite's? If so, where did you buy it? I would like to go see one, and don't know what dealers stock them.

PM Magic34onHavasu he just went through the perils of the exact same thing you are contemplating, exactly.

I can wire it up using an exsisting cd changer module already but the real ones will be done by CES hopefully
