Thanks very much again guys :)

I was thinking of going for this 50" Samsung

But I think I would regret not paying another £170 for this 50" Panasonic

Would you agree?


The Samsungs look prettier generally, but build quality is imho very patchy - some models will last yonks, others will fall apart 10 minutes after the equivalent LG, but of course YMMV.

If it were me, I'd pay the extra in the knowledge that you're getting the best picture quality on the market and of sound construction, even if it meant I had to wait a little longer to get it.

At least we all know now whose house to go to once footy season starts again ;)
Blessed Be,

Thanks again for your help guys :)

The picture on the 50" Panasonic was not good at all, so I've just go home with this 60" LG60PK790 from a store called Comet.....




Do you think it is big enough to be a monitor for that A4000? :lol:

Hi Guys,

I watched this video this morning....

http://www.isitetv.com/809d534d009c4ba63646a5ed5c8d76c1-p10.htm

... and saw that I didn't have the flagship of the fleet which has something called TruBlack :furious:

So I've just been over to Comet and paid the extra to have an LG60PK990 delivered on Friday and the 790 taken away :) :) :)

Thanks again for all your help and advice.

Merry Xmas :drink:

That's quite a nice wee portable you got yourself there... :lol:

(If I recall correctly from the review in What HI-FI magazine that one uses a good quality Samsung Screen... :))
