thats a tele by the way not a man in drag

 

What's wrong with Sony LCD?
Go for the size that fits your pocket.

 

any pioneer plasma. awesome

 

check on the web site www.kellkoo.co.uk or .com, it has some good deals

 

there is some lovely DLP tvs out there and only about £1500 for a 50" and above

 

i wish i had the room for one of these but sadly on the wifes orders has to be flat wall hung

 

The Sony Bravia KDLV40 40" LCD is a nice set. Ive got the W model, which is essentially similar and Id recommend it.

Make sure it can play High definition.

 

You'll struggle to find a plasma/LCD for £2000 that wont be HD Ready....

Panasonic Viera for me. Pioneer though if you like

 

If you want TRUE hi-def then get http://www.consumer.philips.com/cons...10_GB_CONSUMER It may just cost over 2k but its one of the few TVs out there that can produce 1080p properly

 

i like the pioneer and the panasonic plasmas but there are so many in the 42" range anyone got a recommended model code i could search,one thats not older stock

 

i would just hang on another few more months and your bound to be able to get the hitachi 50" plasma for around that price and its a crcking picture

 

could only find the hitachi 55" its 2900 do think it will be 2000 in the next few months im not so sure

 

Get on over to avforums, there are more opinions on TVs options than you can shake a stick at

 

costco do the pany 42" for 1950
and the samsung 46" lcd for 2050
both with 3 years warranty

 

Oh come on... best 43" plasma on the market at the moment is the Pioneeer 436.
Every review I've read put it at the very top of the tree.

Picture quality is astounding.
That's why I bought one.

Only 2 brands consistently and blatantly get the best reviews - Pioneer and then Panasonic.

 

last time i was in a shop the hitachi had an amazing picture and its HDMI and a low price

 

if thats the price it may be nearer 6 months but yes

 

IMHO it just has to be the Pioneer - I've got a 436XDE & a 506XDE and they're both crackers. The picture is as good as it gets, but I just love the shiny black surround.

Depending on what you're using it for, it may be worth considering a projector & screen. I bought a Panasonic projector & Grandview electric screen for about 2 grand and they are amazing. A bit big for everyday use but awesome for watching films on. I was seriously impressed with the quality for the money. (My screen comes down in front of the 50" pioneer )

There's a new range of Sony LCD screens about to come out in the next few months. I haven't been impressed with LCD so far personally

 

decided on the panasonic th42pv500 £1950 from costco because they give a 3 year warranty

 

This is going to make me sound really old but "TWO THOUSAND QUID ON A TELLY!!!!"
You need to get out in the fresh air more young man.

 

jeeesus mate ive been building a truss roof for 10 hours in the bloody wind today

 

Yep, Pioneer really are the best, got my 43" a couple of years back, it's HD ready, and the picture is class, and it looks bloody fantastic, either on or off!

 

Good choice do like the panasonics, I got the 7th gen glass and the picture is awsome, the 8th gen is supposed to be much better too

 

I'd wait a couple of months until the 1080p sets start to come through. 1080P's not necessary for Sky HD but should make it more "futureproof" and maybe look better for HD-DVD and PS3.

 

We bought a Toshiba 37" LCD just before xmas, and it's a belter. 37WLT58 i think the model number is, got it from John Lewis (5-year warranty) but they price-matched another retailer so got it for just under £1600.

Plenty of reviews on www.avforums.com

 

I don't think the human eye can resolve the difference between 1080p and 720p from the recommended viewing distances for this size of TV. Basically, all it'll mean is that you can get closer to the TV (when compared to the same sized 720p set) before you see pixelation. What's more important is the processing and scaling hardware you buy...

The bottom line: if you're thinking of going big, really big (say 60" or larger, or maybe DLP), the extra resolution may make it worth the difference in cost right now--as long as you have a pristine, 1080p HD source to feed into the set. Have you got a room big enough for it?

Best bet...get yourself to a decent independent tv shop and ask to see 720p at 37" vs 1080p at the same size (if they have a TRUE 1080p source??? - most probably 1080i deinterlaced).
