Ok, if I've read all these posts correctly then (with my limited budget) the plasma screen for me is the Panasonic PW7 (£999 from Richer Sounds).
The general advice seems to be to not bother with an analogue tuner and just use a freeview box. At the moment though, when I use my Yamaha DSP-AX 750SE amplifier (and Castle Compast Speakers), I think that terrestrial TV actually sounds quite superior to digital. It seems to have a wider bandwidth and to sound better with music especially. Am I doing something wrong?
If analogue is better, can anyone recommend a tuner (suitable for the PW7)with freeview in it as well, preferably to go nicely with the Yamaha amp?
Another thing I'm confused about is that everyone seems to recommend using
a "js RGB to VGA converter" for connecting things to the plasma. Am I correct in thinking that in my case, with the Yamaha amp seemingly having 'video upconversion', I would be better just plugging everything into the amp and then connecting that to the plasma by component video leads? If so, should I get a board with component only or something else as well just in case?
Thanks.
