i’ve had the ticket stamped ( after months of telling her we REALLY need one and generally annoying the hell outta her) to get a spangly new telly.
so far i’ve looked at :
Sony KDL40V2000 looks nice and gives a nice crisp picture, but only has 1 HDMI port, i’d go for the new X-series thats coming out in september, but i really can’t justify the £2500+.
and
Toshiba 42WLT66, another very good telly, although a lot of people on the AV forums have been having problems with them. This beauty has x2 HDMI ports and a screen res of 1920×1080.
anyhow, are there any good independant review site of AV equiptment, as i reallyt can’t find any, apart from which!, but i can’t be arsed to subscribe to it, and are there any blatently outstanding 42″ LCD TV under £2k that i really need to know about?
soundandvision.com mate, bought a lovely Pioneer 43″, 436XDE with 2 HDMI ports from there, take a look.
pfft check out Mr Madmax and his stealer of credit!

My Quintrix (7 years old and not really used that much) just died on me…
Well, unless I want to try and watch a picture that’s compressed into a 1/2cm horizontal line.
Still, not much worth watching on TV these days and those big TV’s are just toooo big. I like to watch the whole screen without having to move my head from side to side 😀
aye, thats where i’ve been getting the best prices anyhow, seems a good online shop.
i think i’m leaning towards the tosh, does the 1920×1080 res mean i get a much better picture? I was reading somewhere that if you get a 720 telly, sometimes the picture gets fucked up because it has to convert it?
anyways check it out.

Ronathon.. I have a 36″ widescreen award winning 100hz Digital flatscreen Toshiba 36ZD26P if you want a top new TV 😀
Sound and vision are around the corner from where I live 🙂
Some light reading for you Dave
My rear projection toshiba was getting abit long in the tooth so ive been out and bought this

Comet etc are retailing it at 1599,i got it online from
The picture is mint i know you get what you pay for but i didnt have £2000+ to spend on a tv.
well i got off work early today and took a trip out to the sound and vision store in back of beyond Bolton.
i spent over an hour deciding which TV to buy, i gotta say, the salesman was a typical wanker, but what ya gonna do when they have decent prices?
anyhow, it got to a toss up between

and

but in the end i ended up with the panasonic plasma, i really did like the toshiba, and it looked stunning watching the HD tennis, but what put me off was the motion blurr and what i can only describe as a net curtain effect when looking at the picture up close.
anyhow, i tried to get the fucking huge bastard thing in the estate……not a fucking hope……it’s getting delivered early next week, when i have to work nights in a one horse village in wales for 4 nights. so i’ll not be enjoying it while Friday at the earliest, if i don’t die whilst falling asleep driving back to Sheffield friday morning….it really would be just my luck. 😥
it was the middle of the afternoon, when i saw i knocked off early, what i mean’t to say was i went in for 1/2 hr. you minions would have been at work.
top job – knew you would see sence
panasonic plamas are the dogs nuts
i can still be caught drooling over ours now and then…. hd pron is the way ahead 🙂
Just got in from doing my work stint to Wales, and back to the wife and kid and new brand new baby, the plasma. I set it up at 4am this morning, waking the missus trying to lift the beast onto my existing stand, who’d have thunk they weigh so much.
Anyhow, i can’t wait to test HD. I have telewest HD being installed next Thursday, but is there anyway i can test HD out now, i take it i can hook up the PC and play my downloaded stuff from the newsgroups? The telly does have a SD card reader on it and plays Mpeg4 files, but is Mpeg4 HD?
any other easier suggestions for getting HD to play on the set?
