I have a old 74cm CRT TV in my bedroom, and want to replace it with a (32?)inch LED/LCD, problem is, there is no place to mount the TV on the wall (wall to wall built in closets), so the 74cm is currently living in the top closet, fits quite well, and its a small closet, so it almost looks like it was made for it, now my problem is just, i heard that LED/LCD has angle restrictions, so will the LED/LCD work in their, i know it is difficult to say, because i did not provide viewing angles, height and distance from the bed, so can someone just give some general feels.

And what has a better viewing angle, LED or LCD. I know Plasma has good/better viewing angles, but i cant go for plasma due to the fact that, its going to be a bit enclosed, so the heat is a worry, and secondly, i dont want to go massive, and i heard one does not get 32"" plasma's
 
The more expensive panels generally have better viewing angles and the picture quality would be better on an LED compared to LCD. But what you actually need to do is go to a store and see what the viewing angles are like on the different TV's, go on your hands and knees if you have to, in my opinion if you end up with a TV with bad viewing angles you might as well throw it away because it's gonna bother the **** out of you. Also check the viewing angle during dark scenes, I've found that dark scenes tend to amplify the effect of bad viewing angles.
