Looking for 23 inch LCD

Following on from 22 inch thread below, I am looking for a 23 inch
LCD. Options seem to be:

Humax
Samsung R87
Philips
Panasonic viera 23.
Must have speakers below, DVB, HDMI, S video, no DVD - not a fan of
all in ones as when 1 bit breakshe rest is useless.

Samsung review reads wll except audio quality. Philips looks to have
better audio but can't find a decent online review.

Any thoughts??

Well, my Humax has very good sound quality for a 'small' LCD.

The picture on every LCD I have seen in the shops under 42 inches looks
completely crap and is unwatchable unless you are positioned dead centre,
and the tiny speakers on them are just as bad. The technology they use is a
decade old and not comparable to the more modern technology in the large
screen panels.

Those comments belong back in 12th century BC and are just as
mythical.

You are an idiot. 42 inch panels have viewing angles of 178 degrees whereas
you're lucky to get 120 degrees on anything smaller except a very expensive
computer display. The same for response times. The technology they use on
panels under 42 inches decade out of date.

Philips 23 inch - display angle 160H/160V. Response time 8ms.
Samsung 23 - 160H/160V. 8ms.

From the manfacturers info, the 23 inch sets now appear to have much
the same technolgy as the larger sets, and not "decades" out of date.

Who is the idiot???

Sony 32" 178 degrees
Sony 26" 160
Sony 20" 160

Yeah, that's like REALLY narrow.

Decade old technology.

It's out of date. Any screen with a response time greater than 2ms and a
viewing angle less than 178 degrees is a complete waste of money and will
never produce a decent image static or moving.


Who is the idiot???

You.
