Is it possible to buy a flat screen tv without a tuner?

Can I buy a big screen monitor (save $$$$) and use Direct TV box as the tuner?

  • I am considering a 47" Westinghouse monitor (no tuner) to connect to Direct TV. (huge difference in price from one with tuner) i get conflicting answers at Best Buy. I assume that i lose closed captioning and sleep on/off features--anything else?

  • Answer:

    you don't need a tuner for directv. if you have hdmi or dvi and some kind of audio system, you can even use a computer monitor!! best buy is not an authority on anything!
