I'm new to all this, so please be gentle
My research has suggested (I want a 37" screen) to go towards the Panny TH37PW7B (max spend on screen looking at £1500). However, although I know very little, I'm not so naive to think this is all i'm going to need to get the most out of it. Could someone please give me a quick answer to the following questions??
1. I've already got SKY (not SKY+), which I intend to hook up. Is this a atraightforward process? Any additional connectors other than the SCART supplied with my SKY box required? Anythig I should buy to imrpove picture quality?
2. I have a Phillips DVD player, about 16 months old. I intend to buy a new surround sound sysyetm with the plasma which I guess will include a new DVD player (they tend to come as a package don't they?) WIll £500 here suffice? Is it simply a case of using the leads which come with the sound system and putting it straight into the sockets on the Plasma? Anything else I should buy here?
3. People say they get this TV with a "SCART box". What's all this about? Is the necessary?
4. What's all this about "Progresive Scan" boxes/units?
5. I intend to hang the unit on the wall. Any brackets I should avoid/look out for?
6. I intend to hook my Gamecube up to the screen. Does this have any implications?
Thanks for taking the time to read this - even if you could just answer a couple of the questions that would be great
