First of all - very happy with the TV. Setup from the box was simple, and the image for both SD freeview and HD blu-ray discs are excellent.
My only small gripe is that there's a low humming/buzzing sound when the TV is switched on. It's barely discernable but now I've latched onto it I can't ignore it, especially when ambient noise is low. I do sit rather close to the TV as well(~ 2 metres)
I asked Panasonic whether this was normal and get the following response:
"In response, I would explain that Plasma panels DO buzz because of the high power and switching frequencies they work at. The buzz will be heard more easily during quiet periods and especially at night when ambient noise is very low. Normally buzz level should not be heard from about 15 feet away with normal ambient noise and normal audio playback levels."
Can anyone comment on similar behaviour of their LCD TVs ? (Panasonic or otherwise)
