>) >) :bounce: micks address....."but do you think Panasonic are any less reliable than any other make? Question for What hi fi team... are there any surverys out there like they do for car makes to see which are the most 'reliable' brands.. might make interesting reading.. all im saying is that all makes have issues".
That is a very good point along with your suggestion about possible surveys to see just what makes are the most reliable. All I can say is that my experience with Panasonic Plasma TVs has not been good. Also I have trawled the Internet to try and get a feeling about Panny's and I have to tell you that the TVs do not come out good at all.
Particularly in respect of both my problems to do with one set failing to turn on (Power supply failure) and now my 3 inch thick grey/blue line going down the left hand side of the panel. As far as I can see this paricular problem means a brand new panel so I am very pleased that I have a 5 year guarantee which came with the set at the time of purchase.
Oldboy...hello M8...lovely to be conversing with you again....you know that I am a fan of yours of course! :rofl:
By the way...that set with the 'Red Light Of Death' problem was the Panasonic TX=P42G15B and I now have it set up in the living room using it while the 50 incher goes away for repair. YES.....I only telephoned this morning and they came out this afternoon to collect. Very good service up to now.
But then.....I purchased that particular set of a local retailer in Aberystwyth so perhaps they are better than the Currys of this world?
"Of course you have my sympathies yet again and i hope your retailer is fast to act and that the tv is either repaired or replaced quickly, i just don't beleive we are back here so soon, you must be angry as hell mate".
Funnily enough Oldboy, I am not angry at all just so long as the TV set is being properly repaired at no cost to me then I am actually very happy in fact. :cheer: :bounce:
Particularly if it comes back with a lovely new shiny Panel! :bounce:
At the moment I will save my anger for my £1300 Council Tax Bill while we give billions to India who have a nuclear bomb and a space program. Also for Libya and all the other dead leg countries where we also hand our cash to. And oh! have I mentioned Bankers, MPs, Public Sector workers nice and lovely final sallary Pension Schemes paid for by the likes of you and I? |( >)
God M8...I could go on but I am just going to look at the BBC Watchdog program now just to wind myself up a little bit more....Victor Meldrew....move over M8y :rofl:
PS....I understand that not everyone will agree with me in respect of my 'rants' there....no offence meant....particularly if you are a Council Worker about to go on strike!
