Have you tried Allders? They do free 5 year guarantees on their CRT's (not LCD's or Plasma's though) and they do stock some JVC's. Beware though - their on-line selection is only a fraction of what they have within their stores. A store visit is a must.

sorry but

ive resurected this thread cause:

i tried the JVC 32d40, it has some geometry convergence and picture flicker. now rather than try another one and **** off John Lewis if its the same if not worse. im now considering a backup plan. whats the pic quality like on the pany pd50's? and where can i use to price match the pany against John Lewis? crampton and moore are a little pricy this time. or maybe theres a better set than both of these?

JL don't sell the Tosh 32zp48 just the 36 so they won't match it. They can still get one on special order but it'll cost you over £1200.

hornydragon hello

have you got a 32d40 if so can you check your convergence and get back to me as to its condition please.

There's not much point comparing convergence on different sets as this is one thing that will vary from set to set. All modern domestic tubes are pre-converged at the factory (the D40 uses a Toshiba CRT IIRC) and there will be a tolerance limit. The set will almost certainly be within this limit unless it has received a knock but may still not be acceptable to you.
