    Damaged LX5090 Screen, any hope?

    Whereabouts are you? I recently purchased a 2nd hand Kuro from a Pioneer repair centre in Harpenden, Herts. The amount of spare parts they stock included glass for screens as I saw this with my own eyes. HTH.

    Samsung UE46C8000 Power Cord Connector Upgrade

    I'm asuming the Tv is under warrenty. Buy the Samsung cable as a spare because if the tv breaks down you can put the genuine Samsung cable back and not break any warranty T&C. As for the Merlin upgrade I'm afraid I have no idea.

    A good sub for around £200

    How about the QAcoustics Q7000S? It has had some good reviews, is flexible in placement and available in black or white. It is £50. over the top end of your budget though. As suggested the BK Gemini is a good choice for within budget.

    Real Wood Veneer Compact Floor Stand Speakers with Front Port
