Screen glare

[landry_p2000]

Fellow Polk Audio club members,
Do you feel that a hdtv shows a better picture with or without the glass screen protector? My friend got a 53" Panasonic TV from C.C. because it was a model that came with no screen shield. I wanted to talk him into getting one with the shield. What do you guys think? (watching the TV in the dark should not produce a glare anyway)

if i had one id want the screen protector, just cuz id want to protect something that expensive from everything. but if i noticed a better picture quality with it off, id ditch the protector and just take good care of my tv.

Hey Airplay, I got a 16 month old son. Trust me, I need ascreen protector!:D

Or a barbed wire fenceline or moat around the entertainment center....

Though, I suppose with little children, the state might step in there.....

RPTV's will ALWAYS look better without the anti-glare screen, primarily because you can turn the contrast down. This also helps protect against burn-in, since you'll be running your set at a much lower contrast.

I have a mits 55 & i use the screen protector. I had glare but Recently went to walmart purchased 220" of black canvas material & hung it behind my seating area & over the vertical blinds, also put dark brown sheets over the couch & that cut about 90% of the glare. I dont see myself anymore when watching a movie! Cheep upgrade only $30 for the material & $3.00 for some cloth pins!

The window in my T.V. room is behind my T.V. The glare is not a problems with my screen guard.
