I've been pleasantly surprised by the Sonos sound bars however they are never going to replace a full fat setup. I may have to resort to one though as SWMBO wouldn't allow said full fat version. I totally agree though that any inbuilt speakers these days aren't going to be up to the job as people want thin frameless TV's and there's just no room for them.

I agree, I wouldn't buy a TV for 3D, but if the right TV just happened to have 3D (which most do now) then I wouldn't discount it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had previously never considered Bose, expecting that it was all just hype. But then I heard one of their systems. I have been a changed man since. £2500 system mind you, but it was amazing!!!

God TV Hunting is hard. lol, Think I'm just more curious as to why people say don't go Plasma, get LED etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Well, as long as you're happy. Personally I can't stand their compressed nature and prefer to hear a fuller dynamic range across my speakers, but each to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah true most are 3D now, my Samsung is almost 2 years old, back then I paid. £899 for a 47" LED, the EXACT same model with 3D was £1,699 Sent from the golf club...

Paddy78 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 What Dan said... Go and look at some and stay well clear of Curry's (When you actually buy one) as there are loads of deals to be had online. Toshiba's and Samsung's are the way forward. I've always been a bit of a Sony whore, but they aren't as good as Tosh / Sammy at the moment and are certainly more expensive in a lot of cases. If you're a Costco member, then one of these would do the job: http://www.costco.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/cos_1,cos_1.1,cos_1.1.1/156939 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 The 3D equivalent only adds about £50 to the TV now. It's all software anyway, same screen. I have 2 3D TV's and use them for movies and sports. Football in 3D is epic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fodder Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Costco is a good shout as you can get some good prices and they used to from time to time throw in the 5 year warranty too. Only downside is you have to pay cash or debit card and for a high value purchase I like to use the old credit card for the extra bit of protection if it does go south.
