after a tv

bakes0310 · 27 Oct 2006 at 00:33

ill be using it in my bedroom for wacthing tv and plugging into a lot of game consoles like my xbox360 ps2 and wii when it comes.
I dont know any of the technical stuff about tvs only that i know i want HD on it

I like the look of the samsung tv range they look very sexy and thin which is good cause space is an issue, so im looking in between say 19"-21"
my limit is £500 i hope thats ok

£500 is 26" territory

Samsung do the sexy one in 19" a LE19R71

for a tad under £300
The R series are thinner than the last model, lighter and use less power

recommend any componet cables and does that improve the tv quality aswell as any consoles :confused:

cant recommend any, but it will only effect your console viewing as its the type of cable you would use to hook up your console to your tv and is considered the best connection to use

Just buy the official xbox 360 component cable, this will only make the xbox picture look better as that is the only information going through the wire.

Is the difference quite big will i notice it a lot. And how does it make it look better is the picture more sharp and clear.

Cheers

If you want to make your TV watching look better you will have to get a SkyHD box and only watch HD channels. The other option would be to buy a high end upconverter but a good one would probably cost more than the TV

. You can only run Xbox360 at high resolutions through component or VGA, so difference in quality between scart and component is definately noticable.
