why awful receiver?

 

[adyscarborough]

no the tv is awful, sd quality is horrific. i had posted the equipment list in a list, but somehow its turned it into a parragraph so is a bit aqward to read!

So what are you thinking of replacing the lg with ady? nice set-up too 🙂

 

[adyscarborough]

hi, thanks 🙂 i really dont know. i will have to start doing some research, kind of fancy getting a 3d capable tv but not sure of make or anything really yet, wouldnt need to be a smart tv as the ps3 can do anything one of those can and probably better!

dont think id want to be spending more than £700 either..... this probably limits me to very few tvs!!

 

[ear]

usually lg tvs are good with sd-aerial or received via video connection.HDMI seems do ruin the image a bit.

 

[GSB]

plasma or led ady?

the gt30 iv'e got is going for under £700 now,if you can find one...last years model :roll:

i had a samsung led for about 5yrs before the gt30,the difference in quality in new generation tv's is astonishing tbh.

 

[adyscarborough]

really not sure which id get, may have to go have a look at a few. is 3d the way to go or is this still a bit of a gimick????

Tbh yes it is although avatar is stunning in 3D,seen some other decent films aswell but i wouldn't buy a tv soley for 3D,anyways i think the vast majority of present gen sets have that capability.
