The Bottom Line Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs. The midlevel Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV strikes an excellent balance between price and performance. Despite inaccurate color, the Toshiba 42RV530U 42-inch LCD represents a solid value given its otherwise commendable picture quality. CNET did not review the Westinghouse TX-42F430S, but we did review a larger model in the series.
