Comparing a CRT 32'' with a LCD 16:9 46'' television.

[Coldkilla]

Could anyone help us determine the size differentials between our square CRT television that's about 32'' (diagonal), and a new 46'' 16:9 television?

We have looked at places like Best Buy, but the problem is that in a large Warehouse, everything looks so small - but when its actually in the house, it seems like it would be much larger. We'd like to see a size difference so we could compare the two. The new LCD is obviously slimmer and will end up being 3+ feet further back and thus create a smaller perspective.

We're talking strictly screen size here and not the actual dimensions of the television. Is there anyway we could get a side by side comparison between the two televisions? Could anyone tell us the L & W of the LCD 16:9 thats 46'' diagonally Vs. our current television with the dimensions we can easily figure out.

Thanks for any info.

Fill in the resolutions if you have them, but that's the size comparison.

The tvcalculator is cool. I have wondered what the size diff was from my 27 inch tube to my 46. The vertical diff is bigger than what I thought.
