Advice, always go in a store and see what you can find of the suits. Of course, that LCDs in the most ideal settings adjusted and they almost always show DVD images, but the differences in colour and warmth are really massice.
Tight image, beautiful natural colors, no streperige effects in eg sportchannels.
With a viewing angle of 178 degrees you can almost sit diagonal to watch without much loss of image quality.
The TV is equipped with 2 Scart connections, HDMI connection and a whole laundry list more (including a PC-aanslutiing), so you can take good from the feet. Unfortunately a USB connection, that was completely off, but you must modelltje a higher (700). The price of almost € 300, = us was not worth it.

Via the internet we found a cheaper one . The steeled us € 120, the retail is gone, and that you can earn! And that 2 year Warranty it you do well, whether you buy now via the Internet or not.
Now the TV is very popular because he was invited by the Consumers' Association as the best buy TV in June has been awarded prizes. As a result, he also difficult discontinued at the time (December 2007).
We have yet to find a supplier, and within three days was the (large!) Box in the house.
The TV is indeed packed and you have to be even with its two are good for him to get out of the box. With 17.5 kg it is a marketable television and he is good to hold because he obviously nice thin (about 15 cm).

The installation is actually a piece of cake.
, cables and incitement. Automatic run an installation program, where you can settle in the language (if you want) also immediately channelscanning start.
Because we are a digital decoder sat between him and not connected to the analog cable, scanning was not necessary.
It was even find where exactly the TV images. But that was more logical to sit together than we first thought, if you decoder in scart-2 have insulting sit it is logical that you than on the TV shows that the signal you want to see through that connection. If you do not do anything (as we say in the beginning), then the image will remain black.
The manual that was neatly course, but we still pretend that we autodidact and can not find it. Private debt!
It took more effort and time finally to the old TV to the bedroom to transport than the new to set ;-)
The image is perfect (including home). Digital TV viewing is eat anyway, but this makes it more enjoyable TV. It's just getting used to the big picture. We need you to make. Especially if you go to broadcast with subtitles looks you in the beginning even the feeling that your eyes wander across the image (- images - subtitles etc.). But as I said, that went fast.

Also even tried the DVD of course. We have some extra heavy, really good quality, scart cable between sitting and that you really mark. What a quality. We looked to Ice Age. The figures are truly independent of the background! Completely on top!
The image quality is its customizable to your own wishes. If you put him on dynamic, the black really black, but the other colors are very bright. We let him stand on Plain, and that's good so far.
You can even have the picture set to 16:9 or 4:3, for example. Basically, the automatic setting, which itself determines what the best picture format. Sometimes that goes wrong and then you have to do it yourself (so far, but with a transmitter the case, so that it falls).

The sound can be adjusted. First, you can surround or not incitement. We believe their quality intestacy, a little, so those turned off. Also, you can set or listening to music, speech, etc. Is to listen, which sounds warmer or cooler as sound. That is a little play.
The TV is equipped with a sensor, which determines how much light in the room. As a result, he was stronger when there is a lot of sunlight and darker as the room is also dark .. Be always a good idea. Even with sunlight in your room.

Teletext has a buffer of 1000 pages, so you can take things without having to wait for a page. Beautiful, sharp letters.
The TV fits perfectly in the interior, completely conforms to our desires and for that price is really a winner. I would go there if I was you!

Some of the sentences in your make no sense - has it been through a (bad) translator?
