Hello there, my first post in these here parts. I've been a long time lurker but thought I'd come out from the shadows and prod you all knowing types for a little information. Hope you don't mind.
I'm on the brink of purchasing a 32" CRT telly and have narrowed it down to two units that I like the look and spec of. Now there are a number of posts regarding these sets and I've trawled the forums looking at the experiences you guys have had. I havn't really found a good comparison thread though so thought I'd use it as an excuse to post.
The two sets I'm in a quandry over are...
Panasonic TX32DTX11
SONY KD32DX51
Both are at and around the 600 quid mark from RGBDirect, from what I hear they are reasonably reputable.
I'm quite particular about the black surround for the screen, apart from prefering the boarder of a screen to be black, most of my other equipment is black so want to keep some sort of style link, sad but true lol
Usage wise it will be mostly CableTV with an average dvd player, plus the odd computer game...
I'm not going for any extended warranty as I'm of the camp that reckons if it survives a year it's going to be fine and both Panasonic and Sony should have reasonable warranties.
Well, I'm very interested to hear your thoughts/comparisons on these two units. Open to comments on all aspects, thanks muchly in advance.
