I did buy another pair the other day in Currys the AKG K451's, but that's it now for me, 3 pairs is more than enough, I swear that is not that much difference between the pairs too. Headphones are definitely off my shopping list now. *smile*

Coincidence, or...? Has anyone ever seen the two of them in the same room at the same time? ;-)

Hmm, you could be on to something, spiny norman! I've met both bigboss and Steve Withers, but not at the same time, very suspicious ... !

I've just done an on screen measurement & ratio comparison from the "straight on" photo of the TV on the Panasonic website and.........
It appears that the stand is (according to my calculations) approximately 1020mm wide.
Very clever, and cheers for that! Is that right? I reckon that would fit on my stand okay then? Just a little overlap which doesn't matter right? Cheers!Joe10155 said:

Andrew Denham, the Managing Director of Panasonic UK, is interviewed today by my man Steve Withers. Go to the link and scroll about three-quarters of a page down.

Alas, nothing definite about price though, despite what has appeared several times earlier in this thread, including immediately above .... However, I myself would be very surprised if its (at least introductory) cost is less than £5,000. Just my guess ...

Cheers for the link, I watched it earlier too. Good to see the picture on the TV.Son_of_SJ said:

I think they've gone too far with the alcantara leather rear. Unless your TV is in the middle of your room, then whets the point?!

I was speaking today to a salesperson in Richer Sounds (who had been considering buying ellisdj's Panasonic 65VT65 plasma). He said that they had heard from a Panasonic representative, who has seen the new Panasonic 4K OLED next to Pansonic's best-ever plasma, the 60ZT65. In the words of the Panasonic representative, "It (the new 4K OLED) makes the ZT65 look broken." Wow! There was I thinking that my own 65VT65 was good! *dash1*

Thats the same sales pitch they said about the ZT next to the legendary Kuro - have you seen both - yes I have - is it better yes it is - was it a couple of £k better yes it probably was / is
Will the Panasonic OLED be about 6 - 7k used or 4k new better i.e. double the cost - I am not so sure at the same size.
Its a huge amount of ££ for a 65" screen - available only to a limited few with the pockets deep enough over the next year or so. I would hazard a guess new cheaper models to follow 2016 and on
You can always be on the band wagon for the latest and greatest - but at the same screen size depending on how far away you sit the benefits are going to be incremental for the most part of whats available to watch. UHD Blu Ray could well change that but its still limited to the size and spec of the film which is not that different to Blu Ray.
Also as UHD content comes out 1080p content will improve loads as well just as DVD quality has
That amount cheddar buys into real high quality Big screen possibilties as well, tv's dont compare to this so its competition is now a different market sector as well
I love the idea of the TV but that price is staggeringly high - too much for a TV

Remember we don't have an official price yet, Panasonic's MD Andrew Denham wouldn't quote a price in the short interview I mentioned above.
However, bearing in mind that I'll be either eight feet or 11 feet away from whatever television I buy next, and given also that I've been used to having a 64" or 65" plasma since February 2012, even if I had the money I probably wouldn't buy this new Panasonic 4K OLED. I would want something bigger. It's now looking as if I will finally be able to get my hands on some pension money by Christmas. I've pretty much decided on the Samsung UE75JU7000, and I will be getting both it and my existing Panasonic 65VT65 calibrated.
It depends on the cost to what you expect from the product I think - the Panny OLED at £8.5k is savage expensive depsite how great it might be technically - apparently TPS have been given that as their price from their Panny rep according to a very trusted source in AVF.
However you are right price remains to be confirmed and it probably will set a new bar for TV tech, by how much over the LG to average eye as well you have to factor in
Is it just me or do Top Tech prices seem higher now than ever.
I wonder if top Japanese AV receivers will start pushing up to the £3k mark or if £2k will still be considered a buying limit. Only so long that price point will buy you that type of product though for obvious reasons

Saw the Panasonic OLED at IFA - looked absolutely jaw-droppingly good!
Think I may start saving hard and skip straight from Full HD to OLED 4K in a couple of years, when (hopefully!) prices come down...

Or lack of suitable alternative?
That is meant semi tongue in cheek because that will be all you can buy for a serious tv in a couple of years - i.e. from HD to 4k OLED
