£750 online... the same TV was £1200 in currys a month ago..
I can highly recomend this range though movies ar REALLY stunning.
see id love a 50" but i dont think it would look right in my living room as my room isnt very big0 -
i dont own a credit or debit card so i cant really buy online
so there is no point me spending that little extra and getting a 1080? i definately want a plasma! are plasmas ok next to a window or do you not see the picture clear?
are there any makes to avoid, as i have to admit anything i have ever bought before is only jvc and samsungthings arent the way they were before, you wouldnt even recognise me anymore- not that you knew me back thenMercilessKiller wrote: »BH is my best mate too, its ok
I trust BH even if he's from Manchester..
all your base are belong to us :eek:0 -
also was wondering if the 42" is ok for my room, as my room is 5mtr x 4mtr as i know they say you should have max size tvs for different size rooms
Chart here http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/televisions/0,39030216,2,00.htm
for viewing distances...I think you could go for a 50" (more like the movies)
Dont be scared of the big size TVs you soon get used to them and wish you had gone bigger..:D“Careful. We don't want to learn from this.”0 -
there isnt a store anywhere near me0

where i usually plonk my bum is just over 2 mtrs from the tv0 -
Are you sure you want the tv in a corner?
Maybe wall mounting would work better and give you more floor space back.
Whatever you decide you need to look out and check whether the stand is included in the price of the TV or not...
The Stands can be stupidly expensive to buy seperately..“Careful. We don't want to learn from this.”0 -

LOL...ok best you stand it on the floor then..
But seriously dont just buy the one that looks nice in the shop.. write down the model number and google it. there are a lot of crappy tvs out there for big money...
Just as an aside did you know that on a 50" screen the newsreaders actually come out lifesized..lol its like they are talking to you thru a hole in the wall..“Careful. We don't want to learn from this.”0 -

lol well i hope you take the responsibility for me going from a 42" to now needing a 50"
what about that 50" i linked from that Richer sounds, why are they cheaper than other places? are they seconds at all or anything and do you still get guarantees at this shop :S0
