      Yeah.. I know the Sharp is supposed to be great for SD and it's definitely an option. It's not HD though, and they want the set to last at least 6years which means at some point they will probably be using Sky HD.

      I think the LG sounds good- but one person said the sound is very weak!

      Any more sets I should consider??

        You must have taken one of the last 32" LG's from komplett. No more from them until the 21st. I'll be having a hunt around over the weekend.

          Nah, still "Picking in Progress" Has been since 3.23pm. And I ordered about half 2. I hope it ships today sooo much!!!




          Not buying the LG on the basis of poor sound is silly to me, I will have everything running out of my sound system anyway, usually dont even have the volume up on my TV and I imagine most people buying a TV like that will also have a seperate sound system they can connect everything up to!

            I don't think the sound is poor. In fact, I only use the AV speakers with movies & games, for broadcast the TV speakers are up to the task.

              Well there you go...!!

              Good job! I read through that whole thread in avforums about the TV that you posted alot in, was a fun read!

                btw, I've just found out that the 26" LG is ?702ish at Dixons/Currys online with free delivery and there is a ?50 discount code floating around online.

                They use a wankerish postcode availability checker though to establish your proximity to a warehouse instead of shipping them all from a central location. The upshot of this ridiculous system is that there are none in my area, but my mate who lives 10 to 15 minutes away can get one no problem.

                It looks like I'm going to have to go to the trouble of getting it delivered to an alternate adress.

                  What's the ?50 off code? I'm thinking of picking one of the 26" LGs up and that seems as good a place as any.

                      Does anyone know if JohnLewis does the LG?

                      Their 5year warranty is really tempting, as well as their pricematching.

                        That's the one

                        I'm pretty pissed off now, I can't believe they use such a crud system, no chance of delivery to either of my parents workplaces as well. Looks like I'm gonna have to bell up a few mates asking a favour

                        EDIT:As for the LG, JL don't have it on their site, I don't know about instore

                          Was just thinking of the things I need on my new telly, and remembered what my old one was lacking - an audio out connection.

                          Does the LG or Sammy have audio out so I can connect to my SurroundSoundSystem?

                            Don't think so, same problem I had.

                            I think you can only use surround sound via an external source (dvd, console). Possibly.

                              Boo! Might have to buy an external Freeview box to watch TV in PLII instead of having it built in

                                Recieved the Samsung LE26R41B today from Play.com after ordering it just on Friday there. It was bought as a Xmas gift for my dad but I'm sure I'll get a little use out of it as well, particularly on December 2nd

                                If anyone could point me in the direction of a guide to getting the best performance/picture quality from it I'd be really grateful.
