Will this be any good, as not really had any LG products apart from a small LCD TV in my room..

Any knowledgeable people offer any advice..

last questio Re: lcd and plasma's.,.. promise

The TV tuner enables you to watch TV, some are built in, some are seperate, not sure if thats the same deal as a digital tuner or not

Ive had LG stuff and still have it, LG are a sister company of Phillips

whilst im on it..

the contrast ratio of 1000:1 is that shit? as ive seen 4000:1

Zetec Andy

Fuck knows mate, i just normally go in comet and say to the sales person.....

Katie

Westy mate....one day you'll need to buy something on the spot without making a thread to ask about all the possibilities....live a little, buy something on impulse....
(But keep the receipt for when everyone tells you to take it back)

Reception: Digital Tuner with all Freeview channels
Contrast ratio: 10000:1
Pixel resolution: 852x480
Brightness: 1500cd/m2
Progressive scan

katie..

I often buy things on impulse.. I see it, i like it, I buy it..

but 1500 pounds is alot when you have just literally got a morgage.. need to make sure this is the one irst

nothing worse than getting something to only find out that there is a better version for same price..

Katie

but surely the first 10 threads would suffice?

Westy

iTrader: (1)

10 is nothing....

defintely a few more re: surround sound etc... to come

Katie

forget adding threads here anymore....we'll have a whip round and buy you www.westywantsatv.com

Ignore contrast ratio figures etc, they are played with like max power figures for car amps!

Stop asking, GO VIEW!
