Is this the best ever rpt ????

I have never been a fan of rpt's but i went into curry;s to day to look at the tosh pf2 and the panny pd30 (for about the 10th time i might add), When a tv caught my eye.

Turns out it was the samsung sp46l5hx lcd 46''the picture was stunning at all angles (something that seems uncommon with rpt's)

I havent seen a picture this good for a long especially in a store.

The samsung website -

http://www.samsung.com/Products/TV/P...V_SP46L5HX.htm

- boasts that it has a dvi input please can someone explain what this is ? is it better than component

I would like your advice if anyone has bought this beast please let me know.

Any opinions are welcome

Check out this thread

Also check out its little sister the older but cheaper 43L2HX available for £1400 and featured in the new Sky brochure for £1999 with free DVD recorder

The price was £2999 thats a currys price remember

Another thing that grabbed my attention is the ability to stack all the home cinema equipment on the shelf underneath.

Which store did you visit?
Im keeping my eye on this TV as there are a few people who have seen it and as of yet little criticism.

The £2999 price can be reduced with web site codes tis week to about £225 off £2999.

Its been in and out of stock on my currys post code last ten days.

What did you think was so good??

It was a currys store in bristol.
What do you mean the website codes i have tried to look for the currys website and havent been able to see it.

The first thing that attracted me to the tv was the looks but once i got closer the picture was brilliant, now i am no expert but my eyes were not lying. Bearing in mind that it was probably showing a picture that had been split many times it was still damm good.

The other thing which i thought was fantastic was the veiwing angle, this is one of the main things that have put me off rptv's in the past but not this time, and finally it has shelves to put my kit on.

I have looked everywhere and besides the review on the eisa page i have not been able to see any others.

The other thing that confuses me is howcome non of the mags big up rptv's am i missing something?????

as mentioned earlier check the other thread about this tv.

If that doesnt work, currys or dixons homepage. Televisions-projection, its there!

Which Currys was it?

Correct me if i'm wrong but DVI is a very high quality input. Greater than Component.

If posting links to a site where the session id times out, please learn to include the sku which in this case is 11234.

Sorry lynx but i havent got a clue what you are saying

i take back what i said about the samsung above. I went back to the store to day complete with lord of the rings dvd and spent ages trying to get the set looking great and i am afraid to say i have made the desicion that this rpt's not for me.
There was a lot of pixellation which was noticible from as far back as about 14 feet (my veiwing distance)

Back to the panny pd30/tsosh pf2 shame as i had my heart set on the samsung.

Maninblack posted a link that expires after a short time. Each product on the site has a unique identifier code,SKU, in this case it is 11234. All you need do is open any link on the website and substitute the sku at the end for the product you wish to view. Hope thats clear.
