![]() Although it's a plasma rather than a LCD, the PANASONIC TH-37PX70BA seems to have rave reviews.

![]() Firstly, if you haven't come across it yet, then this is pretty much the ultimate place for advice: http://www.avforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=91
After much searching and thinking we about 2 months ago went for a Samsung 37" LCD. Retailing, at the time in currys for £799 :SHOCKED: now showing £699 or £649 web offer. We went through their sister site Dixons and it was £599! (now showing on their site for £574 ![]() Not sure if it fits your criteria, but we are pretty pleased with it as it was a (big) step up from the 18 years old 28" 4:3 that died...

![]() Samsung have held the lead in LCD Tvs and general screen technology for at least the last 2 years offering superior quality to Sony screens and better prices and more richly featured. You don't need full 1080p, its a gimmick. As long as the screen as display 1080 pixles your eye will see full HD.
Samsung are also sexyily stylish and can swivel on their bases (something some of the sony's can't even do). Please dont get battered by the 'hasbeen' name that is now Sony. LE37R87BDX for the Samsung. Dixons are selling the R88 online at £570 and offering 5% off and free delivery. The only difference is that the R88 has its power button on the side and is touch sensitive. |

![]() Ok, so a toss-up between the Toshiba 37WLT68 or the Samsung LE37R88BDX
- the Panasonic is too expensive / not available sadly! Price is roughly £550 for either...any comments? |

![]() Chaps - does anyone run a data projector for their viewing pleasure? I am given ti understand that a good data projector and a good quality screen will give really good definition pictures with of course a VERY wide screen.
Thoughts anyone? I am considering that route instead of a big plasma (IF and when I decide to start spending such amounts of money).

Yes, I have a data projector. I bought a 1 year old projector, a surround sound system and the 'foldy down' (or up as it actually is) screen from a friend for under £200 (total retail nearer £1000) when he couldn't fit it in his new house... It's brilliant for watching movies on and even the footy etc, but I wouldn't fancy using it day to day. You can project it onto a wall etc and get a pretty big screen, obviously limited by how far you can take the projector away from where you are projecting it to. I wouldn't say it is worth it compared to a large Plasma/LCD. Ours, as most do, gives off quite a bit of fan noise, and runs pretty warm. Also for a complete set-up I think you would be better off sticking to the aforementioned.
