LED will probably be my next option as costs are definitely coming
down and they're the next best thing to Plasma IMO. Plus I think that
being so thin is just simply amazing. you could almost use picture
hooks to hang them


Trouble is they've made them so b****y thin they can't get a decent
speaker in the box.

So you have a flat telly with an external decoder, and a set of speakers
instead of a fatter tele.

"The dog from that film you saw" wrote

my 40" sony led backlit lcd weighs less than the 26" sharp lcd it replaced
by about 3kg.


I've just replaced my 8 YO 19" computer LCD monitor by a 23" widescreen HD
LED one, so I could use the former upstairs for a different project. Apart
from the improvement in clarity, I was amazed at teh difference in weight and
thickness between the two.

Apart from the upper right corner the new one runs virtually at ambient
temperature too. I may need to use the central heating to replace the heat
the old one produced.

But if you care about sound you'd have a set of decent speakers anyway, so
nothing lost there.

Our old CRT came with a pair of 6-inch or so speakers in the set,
another pair for the rear, and a woofer in the cabinet it came with.
Adequate for TV if not hifi.

What?

Sound is sound, and like anything else it can be good quality or bad.
Why should the presence of pictures make us drop our standards?

My wife is watching something right now which is a speech-only station.
Telephone quality would be adequate (if annoying). What it does is fine.

OK, so there's nothing below 200Hz. It doesn't matter on that type of
programme.

On a concert, OTOH, every dB matters.
