Default LG 37LK450U LCD TV - anyone got one?

http://www.froogle.richersounds.com/...50u/lg-37lk450


measuring the space we have i can just squeeze in a 40" TV but like the look of the LG and it will fit in nicely. Do not want 3d until they can do away with the glasses. It will replace our Samsung 32" which will move to the bedroom. Also at £330.00 seems like a good deal.

any other suggestions up to £350.00 or so?

What don't you like about the glasses? Is it just the active shutter ones, or the cinema 3D (polarised light) ones as well?

Do your research on LG as their driver boards can be problematic and suffer from early failure.
Have a good google about and see what pops up on that particular model.

Glassesless - Lenticular 3D - is still crap at the moment so you are not missing anything for a while.....

Bought a LG PQ6000 42 inch off richer sounds two years ago,

Was really impressed by the Telly ect,

However one week after the warranty run out it developed a small display problem,

LG didn't want to know, however richer sounds got it repaired and supplied a loan telly all I had to do was drop it off and pick it up!!

looking at the spec sheet id say its the basic model so dont expect great things,but,for a telly, it will show you an image etc but it does boast the play back of divx files via the USB which is handy,my LG 37" http://www.rgbdirect.co.uk/ProductDe...el=LG-37LF7700 has the USB slot but for music etc

the speakers rattle with any base so i have had to tone down the sound,which is a shame but id rather that than the annoying buzz/rattle/vibration that occurs from the speakers.

Mr Zohan, I really couldn't recommend this tv. A great TV if all you wish to do is improve your UPI but pretty poor otherwise.

Check out the LG 37LV355u instead, you'll get that at around your budget and its a heck of a lot nicer and the soundquality isn't painfully bad either.

Thank you all, gone for this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Toshiba-37BV.../dp/B0056Z770K @ £305.00 as we have decided to get the kids a 22" lcd TV as well (for Christmas) and our budget will only stretch so far.

I got my last TV from Amazon, it went wrong within a few months, the replaced within 2 days without fuss or hassle - one phone call sorted it


New TV to be delivered tomorrow FOC

Woo-Hoo, new tv arrived, just finished mounting it to the wall in the lounge - SKY HD to be installed Monday

fitted the 32" (old tv from the lounge) to the wall in our bedroom.

Glad it is done as it nearly killed me!
