Check out the avsforum. There is a comparison between VT30 vs D8000. I believe VT30 is the better plasma tv compare to D8000. Support definitely is Panasonic. 3D is better on Panasonic. D8000 should be slightly cheaper. If it is same price, VT30 would be my pick. Samsung is thinner but make no difference to me as I wall mount the tv. I just want a big screen, nice 3D and tons of tuning option.

Hello Bros. I got quoted these prices for Panasonic Plasma TVs

50U30 = RM2899
50X30 = RM2599

Are these prices reasonable? Are there any other better alternatives for these prices? Thanks

I just got myself a panasonic th-l42u30k model, just wanna ask a noob questions here, if i play a DVD using a DVD player, i found that the display is might be worst compare with at CRT. Anyone can guide me on this?

where did u bought it? how much?

I get mine on last weekend. Cost me RM1599

Just bought P42U30k few days ago. Now in the middle of break-in the TV.

ESH, RM2999 ... bonuslink points...

how much is vt30?

Our fellows in AVS claimed that 50VT30 in our region is assembled in Thailand. Can someone confirm this for the unit sold in Bolehland?

I had some concern on the type of panel our VT30 compare to US model. I see that it is listed as Infinite Black Pro but US model is Infinite Black Pro 2. Do we get the last gen panel from US for VT30? It happen with VT20 model.

Asian = Pay more, get less.

Same as Denon 4311. I check with Audyssey and our unit cannot use Audyssey Pro tuning. Initially I plan to get the Pro Kit that we can share out and just buy the license for each AVR for USD 150 only but too bad we get castrated unit.

Yeah, I only came to know it after speaking to jchong that our local 4311 does not support Audyssey Pro.

Just bought 50U30K for 2.8k, waiting for the new stuff to arrive. Anyone can shares some good guides in breaking in the plasma? preferably not too long. Some guides instruct a 100 hours burn in. kinda of puzzled on which is best and short.

I lost the link to sales thread, anybody know the link to buy plasma at LOWYAT...

Where did you buy it from? Full warranty from Panasonic Malaysia? I see forumers here selling the L42U30K for RM 1700+.

Speaking of which, are there any issues I should be wary of for this model? Planning to get it within this week. Where's the best place to get it?

Just bought the new TH-65VT plasma . Rm 19,999 from Harvey Norman . Superb . Comes with 3 3D glasses & a 3D player .

VT30 or VT20?
