New TV Recommendations Please!

My bloody tv just blew up, it's seen a few years service so I'm not too upset.

It is a 32" JVC flat screen crt thing, still not the end of the world I have our old Beko £99 21" TV.

Just plugged it in and it feels like I need binoculars to view it, has now control and no manual tune, so sky can't be tuned so it is just channels 1-5.

Therefore I need a new tv, any ideas?

With Xmas and my little boys birthday coming keeping cost down would be good, but it want it to last!!

Also 0% finance would be great!

Both HD 1080p ready.

Try the LG 32PG6000. 32" plasma screen for a bargain price (can be had for £450 though I got mine for £550 with a tilting wall mount and a 5 year guarantee from Richer Sounds). Both myself and Viney have one and I've not got a bad word for mine!!

Regards

Hello mate. 1080p is the top HD resolution...but HD ready is one of the lower HD resolutions - basically a way of saying "this TV does half-HD". Those TVs seem to be HD ready not 1080p (full HD) - first one it is describing a 46" version in the text, I think, and the second one says it will accept 1080p signals...but that doesn't mean it will display in 1080p.

However what I would say - which the article agrees with - is just get something with HD ability in one form or another, and you'll be fine.

£350 seems quite good, we just paid £450 for a 32" from Sonex in Debenhams' Oxford Street store. I think they keep the latest models though, £350 for a Sony sounds like a slightly older model (which means nothing, really!).

p.s. stop being lazy and get a real pic of your bike in that avatar

Another good one is the Sony 32W4000 from Richer Sounds. Cheap but does the biz if a wanted an LCD instead.

Richer sounds have a few decent ones around the £350 mark too, not sure I really am that worried about full hd 1080p really. Not sure they are ready to release Ben10 or Peppa Pig in HD for now anyway.

Muffles - can't put my own bike on there, it is too shiny for the camera to take a picture of!!!

That's why you had to cover it up in those pictures of your driveway, right?

Both HD 1080p ready.

Neither are 1080p.

They're lying barstewards in the description of the Sony, "The BRAVIA KDL-46V4000 includes 1080p HD resolution". No it doesn't. It's 720p.

I don't like Sony TVs anyway. I've got a brand new Bravia here at work and am not very impressed.
