I'll be getting a new TV soon thanks to homeowner's insurance (lightning strike took out many things). Expect to get a 56" screen; this will be for me (kids' TV already replaced w/an LCD), mostly movies, sports, no gaming. I don't want plasma. It'll be on a foot-high pedestal, but I lie on the floor as often as sit on the furniture, so I want a generous viewing sweet spot. Will my home theater experience be better with an LCD or a DLP type? (I know to get 1080i. A friend recently got a DLP and he's delighted with it.)
Specific models appreciated but not necessary, price is not a big issue.

One thing to take into consideration is price. A 52" LCD of good quality can cost over $4,500 where a similar DLP is less than $1300. Why wouldnt you want a plasma? It has a 170 degree viewing angle and better black levels than LCD.
Side note its not 1080i you want on a DLP, its 1080P.

I dont know much about tv's but i would say to go with DLP. Its lighter than LCD and the picture quality is great.
