HD Survey: Screen Size Matters to Men

[Gregg Lengling]

Women More Interested in Sound Quality
A Best Buy survey showed that men are more concerned about television screen size, while women are more concerned about sound quality. The survey, conducted in December by Best Buy and Omnitel, questioned more than 1,000 people about their attitudes regarding home theater. The results of the study may prove useful to marketers trying to sell HD sets.

I don't know how they got that info...just my experieces.

More women in the family ask for the bigger HDTVs when I setup or shop with them, than the men do.
Example, none of them like the 42" sets over the 50" ones, even though the husband is trying "save money"- she wants bigger.

Audio is where I find the most problems, as the surround sound, even a 5.1 setup I get "issues" with from the women, not the men.
This especially comes around with the back two surround speaker placements, not even 7.1. just about the speakers in the back themselves and "those cords".
It's sort of odd, but again, my experiences.
