HI-FI

So the LCD revolution starts here (before anyone says owt I ordered mine
before Nige ordered his Sharp!!).

Just finished setting up my gorgeous new 27 Thomson LCD TV. Got mine
for Ł1299 but Currys and Comet seem to have them for Ł1499 - Im sure
bartering will help ;)

The Good points:

picture is wonderful, natural and flicker free
progressive scan inputs on component phonos - dvd never looked better
DVi input for future DVD upgrade
vga input for pc
Screen size almost exactly the same as the 28 widescreen its replacing
Lightweight (16kg) and no fan required for cooling

The Bad:

only one scart :( Ive managed to get round this by dasiy chaining tho)
remote is horrible (unusual for a Thomoson product thanks heavens for my
mx500)
native 1024 x 768 resolution and internal upscaling shows just how bad
Sky Digital is (Freeview is a little better)


This is a belter of a set at a great price. The TV looks beautiful even
when switched off. I can see a lot of these being shifted over the next
few months, plenty more 27 and 28 models on the horizon too.
