Between KLV-40EX43B and ua40eh5000 which is better in terms PQ and sounds ?

IIRC your set is a 55HX855 right? This set is 85% of HX955, with lower pirce tag. I had personally view this, when dynamic dimming is engaged clouding and bleeding is hardly visible to humans eyes. Yes, camera may still can capture them iso400++, but the most important is it can hardly be seen with our human eyes. So to simply put, good dimming solve the clouding and bleeding issues.

I believe the HX855 is using side or left/right Edge LED, this is evident with its Frame Dimming. The HX955 has edge LED at 4 side with zones dimming.

Again, not all dimming sets are equal, LG led+ is using vertical dimming, as their sets has the led at bottom of the screen, side ways dimming is not possible, thus slightly lighter black on the 21:9 black bars.

The biggest problem however is those with very good dimming TV falls into the "HIGH END" zones.

The average non dimming Edge led still suffers.

Brightness = EX43. I think the samsung set has fewer LEDs

Native Contrast = Draw both panels are VA lcd.

Sound = EX43 (5Wx2, 7-band equalizer)

TV Tuner = EH5000 has Digital tuner

Slimness = EX43

There are complaints in AVS forums about the EH5000 having bad motion blur and ghostingr. Not good for gaming.

Backlight bleeding = DRAW, both sets are Direct-Lit LED and above average uniformity, no clouding issue, only mild bleeding like old LCD TV.

Strange that these low end sets BEATS their higher spec edge lit models , for screen uniformity.

Not hx855 . No need to mention what model , scare other say orang kaya . All I can tell you is my sony is 65'. Cheers

anyone using this tv, toshiba 40pu200e?please put ur review here..thanks

Hi, new here. Would appreciate some advice in choosing between these 2 models.

1. Sharp Aquos LED LCD 39" LC39LE400M

2. SONY Bravia 40" KLV-40BX450

Anyone using any of the 2? As the refresh rate is only 60Hz, will it have any lag while watching sports matches? Only have normal Astro (not Astro Beyond). Tried to search for some reviews, but hardly found any. But did find some articles mentioning 60Hz isn't good for watching sports and movies?

Know next to nothing about LCDs, thanks in advance for any advice.

60hz is not big problem with 24p movies as its solved using custom refresh of 48hz. This method is missing in older lcd tv. So upgrading to new set solve the telecine judder problem.

As for sports, 60hz 40" shouldnt b a problem. The motion blur is more noticable on bigger sets like 55" and up.

Thanks for the response. Was quite worried till I read your reply. Would you recommend the Sharp Aquos LED LCD 39" LC39LE400M or the SONY Bravia 40" KLV-40BX450? While I read that LED LCD is generally better than "normal" LCD, is Sharp's quality comparable to SONY's?

From what I can gather, Sharp's has 1 year warranty while Sony has 2 years, is that correct?

Thanks again.

not sure bout sharp. Yes sony provides 2 yr warranty.

The sharp is a led tv the sony bx450 is an older lcd with ccfl backlight. U might want ti consider sony 40ex43b which is an led version.

Thanks for your reply. Will do more comparison.

Any idea why my LG LCD Tv 50'' keep flickering when i turn it on? When i on it will just auto off

dear pro.. new here.. having dilemma buying TV..
budget 3 - 4K.. 50 inch.. looking for quality and durable TV..
plasma kinda not an option cause seldom view TV in dark living room..
what are the differences between LED & "LED LCD"
Opt for Panasonic TH-L50E6K LED.. but found out all the pro recommend Panasonic for plasma.. The swipe & share feature, is it applicable for Ipad??
Which brand has the best LED TV?
please advise.

no recommendation from me, just want let u know about LED tv.
in the market, LED tv and "LED LCD" both are same thing. real name is White LED backlight type LCD panel tv.
since this LED bulb cannot produce color (except white), it has liquid crystal layer (LCD) in front to spread the light to color spectrum like rainbow.

u can refer back to mea culpa post for edge type or direct type white LED.

hello all sifu here.

i just bought sharp le46lm840x. just meant to watch 2d and 3d movie on it.

I plugged my laptop, just to try watch movie from my laptop using hdmi but i can feel something wrong with the motion.

I would like to know also how do i watch movie i download in sharp? using usb but not all are supported. could suggest to me one good converter that can convert all movie to supported file by sharp?

One more thing, how to i watch 3D in active 3d tv? do i have to download 3d movie or what?

Hi chiefs...need help urgently, am undecided between the 55' LM8600 and the 55' LM9600, need to know the difference between both models and your recommendations...!

9600 use nano LED backlight. which would bring the thinnest tv for your room.
9600 also use better graphic processor than 8600.

how much for 8600 and 9600 bro?

Thx bro. 6999 = 8600 and 7999 for 9600

To those who are new to HDTV.

LCD LED VS PLASMA - ReCap.

LCD/LED TV

Limited viewing angle. Color shift.

Brightness is 3 to 5 times higher than comparably sized plasma displays; LCD can achieve brightness exceeding 400 nits at full white.

Contrast ratio is approximately 1/4 to 1/2 that of plasma displays.

Average ANSI contrast ratios measure between 147:1 and 170:1.

Typical black level is undesirably high at 1.7 nits (eight times higher than conventional CRTs!) Dimmable backlights help to provide lower black levels and better contrast numbers.

Liquid-crystal response or switching time (LC twist times) is slow for video - between 8 ms and 16 ms; this can cause ghosting or smearing in video images containing fast motion.

LCDs have trouble with low-level shadow detail resulting in "crushed" grayscales.

Color saturation is inferior to emissive displays though LED backlighting can help.


PLASMA

Wide viewing angle. Constant PQ at off angle.

PDP TVs produce roughly 72 to 299 nits (21 to 87.4 foot-Lamberts) of luminance.

Average ANSI contrast ratios measure approximately between 596:1 and 772:1.

Typical black level is 0.21 nits (roughly the same as a typical CRT.)

No problems with video containing fast motion; PDPs possess faster pixel switching times (full motion at 60 Hz) - progressive video sources are the best.

PDPs possess greater color saturation and are capable of achieving lower levels of gray.

Image burn-in is a serious concern; therefore PDPs are not an ideal choice for console gaming or computer use. (Note: some models utilize 'picture orbiting' and low power modes to combat image burn-in.)

Sad couldn't buy plasma because I'm gong to use with htpc, saw a demo panasonic 55vt50k and i just can say astonishing.

Hi sifus, I plan on getting the Panasonic VIERA TH-L42E6K. Main purpose : Gaming and movies, probably some Astro too. Any pros and cons on this specified tv? If you guys were in my shoes, what TV would you go for? Budget is around RM2.1k. Thanks in advance!
