sony v samsung

[admin_exported]

please someone help,

im just about to go nuts, i have read almost every review and report
available online and im now so confused i cant even tie my own shoe
laces.

i have a budget of around £2000 give or take a few hundred quid and im
after my first hd, lcd, led, etc etc, i also need the full surround
sound experience and blue ray player. I am looking for a 46 and am leaning towards the sony z4500 or the samsung 7 series as for the the blu ray and surround i have had a brain meltdown and can no longer think for myself, somebody please give me some help.

sounds like you've been looking too long the Z4500 is last years model, have you considered samsungs new super slim models about an inch thick the 7000 or 7020.

Sory to butt in, but seeing as your equipment is very similar to mine apart from i dont have that panasonic bd35 blu-ray player but was considering it, is it so much better than a ps3 as a player ?

i did see the 7020 in a store the other day but i cant say i was blown away but i just put that down to the wallys in the shop not knowing what they were doing, but the missus thought it looked "nice", which is good but i need a little more, what is this years sony? is it the z5500?

hi bullitt i might be wrong but i dont think the ps3 blu ray has dts-hd audio or dolby true hd

Yes it is the Z5500, i'm not really up on sony so i can't really be any more helpfull, i have a feeling it could be released soon although i could be wrong.

i think its release date is sometime in july i think its the same as the samsung 8 series i could be wrong there.

I get all the formatts the ps3 decodes it and the onkyo outputs it as pcm or something like that, i just wanted to know if its worth the extra money in a seperate blu-ray player, dont get me wrong the ps3 sounds great but im always looking to improve my setup.
