Im having a hard time deciding on what kind of tv screens I want. I dont want to pay a whole lot of money, but I want good quality. Ive looked at several brands and I cant decide on what to get. I read the specs. on all of them and they have different screen resolutions. They are listed in pixels. I dont really know what pixels are, so what is is pixels and how many pixels would be good quality?

Thanks

pixels are the tiny dots on the screen that, when put together, make a picture. The more pixels in a screen the better the resolution because the dots are packed tighter together and make a cleaner image. Look at the pioneer, clarion and alpine screens and try to find something around thier resolutions.

You wanna make sure that you purchase a TFT vs an STN video monitor.

I have a Farenheit sunvisor module and a Pioneer headrest monitor. Both are TFT screens, and I purchased the Farenheit monitor first. Upon installing it, I thought the resoultion was great. Clear picture! Then I purchased my Pioneer headrest montior. What an improvement! I got an even better resolution, and brighter image.

Again, resolution is excellent on both, but there is a significant difference with Pioneer model. It is even richer and brighter than the Farenheit. Hence, you get what you pay for.

I hope this helps. Also, I purchased both of my monitors off of EBAY, and saved a few hundred dollars. Definately worth looking at. I payed less than half the retail cost for both on EBAY.
