i just bought an lcd monitor for my pc, 10,000:1 contrast ratio. i was kind of curious how it was to be as most monitors of the same price range was only 800:1. well i found out first hand 10,000:1 is done digitally, when the screen is pretty dark all out the light dims giving a darker black or a higher contrast image.

I personally think that anything above 2400 is "digital" so its completely unnecessary to go any higher, it kind of screws with things like subtitles or dark scenery in a game.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
