Hi,
Apologies if the answers to the following are obvious but I know next to nothing about plasma screens.
My current CRT is now 8 years old and I'm considering buying a plasma to replace it. I have a relatively small room so think a screen size of 37 inch is the maximum.
I have just got back from Currys/Comet and the sales guy at both outlets have told me that I must buy either the Philips, Sony or Pioneer units as they come with a tv tuner box without which I will not be able to watch anything.
Is this actually the case ?? I have a pioneer On Digital box which I use for digi tv purposes and wonder if there is someway that I could use this as my tuning box and then just buy a plasma screen.
If that is the case can anyone suggest any suitable screens of 32 or 37 inch.
I also have a VCR and DVD player as well as the Denon 3802 so would also need to connect them up to the plasma unit. Can I only do this via the tuner box which the sales guy referred to ?
Any help would be greatefully appreciated.
Steve.
