LG 37LE5300

Evening,

I am looking to purchase a new TV in the next week or so. I am looking for a 37" as I think 42" will be a bit too bit for my lounge and 32" is a bit small.

The TV will be powered by my HP SFF HTPC running W7 media centre with an NVidia GPU outputing on HDMI 1080p native. I do watch BluRay ISOs in 1080p but normal usage is DVB-T (Freeview)

I have my eye on the LG 37LE5300:

Richersounds currently have this for £499.99 or £549.94 with a 5 year guarantee

Good choice or is there a better TV for the money (1080p, edge LED, 28mm thick, 1080p). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'm very tempting to get this one too. Looks great and 1080p but not seen one in the flesh.

I have the 42" version and am very impressed with it. Not tried blu ray yet but the picture through sky hd is brilliant. Well worth it.

cheers gents, I have a couple to look at in the flesh but I am swaying towards this one.

I have a similar thread running on PH and a number of members have also come back with good comments.

We just got the Panasonic TX-L37G20, excellent TV and gets good reviews at a similar price point

I'd go have a listen to it. I've got a 37" LG and whilst i like the picture the sound is terrible (have to put the volume up to 50% and when it's loud enough to hear voices etc it's then too loud for explosions and whole telly vibrates!), currently looking for a soundbar of some description.
