Final verdict
Three general facts come to light from this group test. First, prices for big-screen LCD technology really is plummeting; being able to find three LCD TVs of this sort of size for under £2K would simply have been unthinkable even two to three months back. And let's not forget: one of these three screens actually gives you a full HD resolution for its money.
Second, the general quality level on offer from large LCD TVs has come along astronomically fast, to the point where any of our three contenders would make a perfectly able and hugely enjoyable centrepiece for a home theatre set-up.
Finally, 46in really is an excellent size of screen for the ambitious home theatre fan to aim for, as it manages to deliver even more of the impact of high definition than a 42in screen for very little extra practical hardship.
As for an overall winner, despite the general quality on offer, there's definitely one screen that stands out: the Sharp 46XD1E. It capitalises on its full HD resolution superbly to deliver some of the finest HD pictures we've seen - all wrapped up in a prettily designed, feature-laden and aggressively priced package that seems tailor-made to whet the appetite of even the most cynical of home cinema enthusiasts.
