It has only 1 HDMI input.
I have one reserved for me.
I don't have freeview (no arial on a rented house).
But i will have to buy a freesat HD box to replace the sky (freesat from sky) box so that I can watch TV!
Will I be able to run the SCART from the dodgy old DVD player into the freesat box so I can watch the odd DVD?
Any other options in the £300- £400 range please note the good value warranty from richersounds.

Yep you ARE mad.. No remote control, turn volume up/down ---does it have speakers then it's soooo slim.

LOL, agreed. Especially when they call 3000:1 contrast a high ratio!!!!
RS says Contrast ratio - from manufacturers information 10,000:1
Sorry with you now you mean the F&H thing (who are they?) not quite the same as B&O is it!Yep you ARE mad.. No remote control, turn volume up/down
Is an Infra-red remote control included?
I think it is a done deal.0 -

No sound output (watts) No speakers I would think.
No SCART inputs

3000:1 would be an amazing contrast ratio if it were true. A well set up cinema has a contrast ratio of about 400:1.
Unfortunately, manufacturers *ahem* "embellish" the truth somewhat, making it all pretty meaningless.0 -
Hitachi do not actually make TV's any more, they just badge stuff from other makers, avoid.0
