I am looking to buy DH a 46" or more tv for Xmas we have a 32" on wall at the moment, there is a 50" samsung plasma at £719 (799 less 10%) at additions direct and would like to know if it will have an ok picture or is it too large that goes wonky, iykwim. Alt at argos there is a 47" LG for £690 and I can buy vouchers at 5% off, what will be the better deal? HELP

I believe the samsungs pretty good actually. Just dont expect freeview to be too hot at that size!

Bare in mind that theyre probably set up wrong in there. Sonys in particular have a horrible 'smear' effect when one of the effects are switched on (So does my pioneer when its maxed out ~ its always best to switch them ALL off)
Cant go wrong with a Pana' Plasma though. What size are you after?

Sorry for the delayed reply.....Probably a 42 or 46 inch, likely to go to Richer Sounds (excellent guarantees and service / had good help from them over the years - once replaced my tape deck 3 times under guarantee!!!) or John Lewis.

Interested in your comments re cables, would you recommend / use a specialist mains power lead. Don't have Sky or a home cinema set up.

Just want the best picture for my money.

I can send you a link to an ebay cable specialist if you wish. Ive tried all sorts of cables out but I recently bought a 16 core braided copper cable off them and the difference to my Pioneer screen is.......jaw dropping!
