Just a page ago quite a few agreed with me you are better off with panels other than Sony's, unless you are willing to pay a premium for anything but quality.

thanks for your reply....sorry as i was too lazy to read post by post...haha
anyway, does it really matters when it comes to FullHD and HDReady when choosing lcd?
i'll be using the lcd mainly for ps3, computer movies, and for my mother's hokkien drama in astro?
can a ameteur like me tells or feels the difference when playing ps3 in a HDReady and fullhd lcd??
if that matter;s then i would need a 32" FullHD lcd, any other recommendations beside sony??
htkaki
Depending on the seating distance from the LCD TV itself. Borrow this chart from aiman as reference for all :

I wonder if any local retailer can get Sharp Aquos from Singapore.. The Japanese made Sharp Aquos is way better than non Japanese made ones, like all those found locally sad.gif

Anyone out there who owns a Samsung 32'' LCD TV LA32A550P1R (1080p FULL HD)?

Just bought one at SS2 for RM2,300.

I was wondering if any owner has hooked it up to a PS3, and could tell me if there's any noticeable difference in graphics (compared to a 1080i LCD TV). Thanks.
nickvanhakim
The price is quite cheap for Full HD model. Which shop in SS2?

i've searched all the official websites! sharp, philips, pana, and lg only have very very little choices. sony is super expensive compare to other products while u can get the almost same features. i personally prefer samsung 6th series. have a look at it and try to do more research to find your best choice. if best try bring ur console to the shop and ask them try at it

As long as it has HDMI input, then you are able to play PS3 games to enjoy HD

I was briefed Series 7 PQ is exactly the same as 6 sans DLNA and some other features apart from PQ and Video processing plus its abt RM11,000 - RM15,000.

Series 8 was not mentioned.
law1777
hmmm.. series 7 has more contrast rite? and some other benefits look it up at www.samsung.com.sg then. but your budget is rm9k get something better than the two u mentioned then. but still u have to audition it on your own for best result

IMHO, its not wise to spend so much for a piece of entertainment equipment. Afterall, price is rapidly coming down at speed of light.

Your monitor must have HDCP supported to connects with PS3.

Bought my PS3 during the launch, bought a HDMI cable as well. I noticed my LCD TV does not have a HDMI output, only DVI, PC and HDTV. I was looking for a HDMI-DVI adapter to connect my PS3, anyone knows where to get it in Perak, maybe a specific shop in Ipoh??

Please make sure your TV is HDCP compatible first, or else you'd be wasting your money

It is, I went through the manual.

A HDMI to DVI adapter should not cost more than RM15... less even better... you can get also a DVI to HDMI adapter and plug it to your PS3 instead and use a DVI cable to connect to your TV...
