Thomson 50DSZ645

I have been hunting around for a new TV. This looks like a new one from Thomson and it looks really nice. They even claim it can be wall mounted. Here is a link to the site selling it. http://www.unbeatable.co.uk/CatalogueItem_25279.html
Does anyone know how good it is?

The thompson set is based on the Infocus thin tv (look on the US infocus website).

These sets are ment to have a very poor viewing angle. Only if your sat directly in front of the screen will this not be an issue. This is due to the thin design of the tv which has compromised the viewing angle. There was a review for the 61' in Home cinema choice.

that's from the review, I wouldn't accept anything like that from a £6000 tv !






hi razor


Lion

I was looking at the 61' as a replacement for my Rd65 before I got rid of the judder. I discounted it as:

a. It was too small
b. Poor viewing angle.
