Brand Snob Convert- Philips PFP5532D - Wow!

[twills99]

Well, I nervously took the plunge as I fancied a slightly larger screen than my existing Panasonic 37PD60, got the above telly and I am amazed.

I was really concerned that the Philips would not be up to the sublime SD picture on the Panny, especially with the bigger screen, but it is amazing.
Just really getting used to it - it has only been up on the wall a couple of hours, but it projects a really impressive Freeview image. One to consider, I would say. Got it from Empire Direct with a 3 yr warranty of a little under £600!
I will update the forum as the machine settles down, but my initial impression is very favorable (I am very fussy, as well).

This should take you to the item - you need to apply one of the 10% discount codes to get the price down to £585 and then add the 'extra' card for the 3 yr warranty. Mine is wall mounted and looks cool. Just been trying the progressive via component and it is better than my Panasonic on a straight comparison, same source and same media.

Sounds like good deal and would make a wonderful monitor for my PC.

For the same money you can get 32inch LCDs but i'd rather have the Philips PFP5532D.
