Just moved house and need to chose a TV for the lounge...which is turning out waaaay harder than i first thought.
We have a recess in the wall which the previous owners had a sony bravia with side speakers in. Result is an odd shape and the misses is getting OCD about the fact a 42 would not have an even space around it.
She therefore wants a screen big enough to cover the whole thing.
Not going to find me arguing...so to do this we need a minimum of 55".
SPEC
Budget= £1200-£1500.
3D = Most TVs have it now and I like it. Passive over active. But not a deal breaker.
Main use = TV and movies.
I'll use it for a bit of console gaming when the misses isnt about and until the TV in the mancave gets an upgrade by the end of the year...but thats a separate topic for later.
Issue im having is deciding on which way to go...LCD?Plasma? new range? old range? etc etc
RS have last years Panasonic WT50s in budget, as would this years ET60.
But after reading reviews im not convinced they are the best I could get for the money with many noting not great black levels...although itwill be in a lounge and not a pitch black room.
Theres always the Samsung range, which a friend really rates or alternatively I was wondering about the availability of some of the Panny plasmas, which get raved about.
Ive decided and then changed my mined sooo many times.
Help!!!
