37" XV arrived today.
First Impressions;
Build quality better than the Tosh WLT66 I had.
Piano black surround looks superb.
DvD quality Very Good,maybe not quite as crisp as the Tosh.
NTL through Scart Ok,depending on channel.BBC not as good as NTL on the Tosh.
Picture from Tosh idtv freeview was excellent.
Viewing angle Superb, when of the best I've seen !
Blacks are Black !! IMHO
On/Off button (the Tosh didn't have one!)
The Remote is much better than the one supplied with the WLT66 which was a complete idiot!!
No backlight, so no BUZZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Would like to see Sky/NTL HD feed working on the XV
On the down side there is slight backlight bleed in the bottom corners
but it doesn't show through whilst viewing a picture.
If it was a £1500 Sony it might bother me but at £498 it won't !!
Intekx seem to have gone quiet on the email front after asking for a refund
for the difference after they dropped the price and included free delivery on Saturday morning
( I only ordered mine at 2pm Friday)
As I've said before,until the big boys sort themselves out on the Lcd front
(problem wise)I think the XV is a complete bargain.
Just need to convince the Boss we need Sky HD
