Thanks.

Actually it's bluray & Astro Beyond hdmi to tv , then frm tv digital audio out to my AV system , instead of bluray player direct digital audio out to AV System.

Without more details, your setup seems strange...

HMDI allows lossless DTS-MA and Dolby Digital TrueHD to be streamed from the BD player to AVR, which will then process the audio to the speakers....

Digital audio out (i presume you are referring to Optical Out) cannot stream DTS-MA or TrueHD, thus sending DTS-MA or TrueHD audio signals from HDMI BD player to TV will result in the TV processing the signal, and downmix them to DTS or Dolby Digital only, which is then sent to your AVR... this means you are listening to lower grade audio (if you are an audiophile la)...

As said, I would assume you are using HDMI BD -> TV -> AV just because your AV dont accept HDMI, and that your AVR only have one optical input...

You r right. The worker that deliver the tv suggested me such. Frm tv optical out to av thus relying both beyond & bd player with hdmi. I suppose I'm getting lower grade audio. I'm switching back the optical output direct from originally bd player instead. Thanks bud.

Hi, saw this at Harvey Norman and Best Denki in Penang selling at RM5699. For the same model LM6700 47" pricing at Rm4650/Rm4600 is very tempting. May I ask where can I get it in KL? Thanks....

Dont shop at these major chain stores lor.... Ask arnd in Sen Heng, E&E, or other neighbourhood electrical stores....

Since I will be traveling down to KL this Friday, stain around KL area... Where would you guys recommend to get a good buy... say Bukit Bintang and KLCC...

Never buy from this giant chain stores ..ie. senQ, Best Denki , Harvey Norman. Their price is explosive. I got mine from my area in Ipoh. Go to other LG dealer stores around your town area & scout for best price. This outlet usually display large LG signboard. They sell cheaper n reasonable. Ok..I did was to call up & also email enquiry to customer service for nearby shp dealer, next LG sales person call me & advice me accordingly or direct me to the shop nearest to my home.

Or else u can go to LG M'sian website , click for LM6700 tv, then at the slight right top, search for nearest dealer at your area. Scout around & perhaps demand for the price.

How's that ....if u r in Ipoh, I'll recommend you the shop. But I'm not familiar in KL. Lennon can help u in KL. but best Denki do at times offer good price. But I don't shop at this chain shop. I buy Panasonic I go Pansonic dealer, Sony at Sony dealer. They were very much cheaper. Don't go to mall. Town shop are cheaper.

Btw, the box for 47" is real huge. Won't fit in the car.

Thanks for the great tips... I'll be in Ipoh on Wed, which shop should I go to....
My car should fit as am driving a 4x4...
You have been very helpful and looking forward to yr reply

After 2 days of playing with my new toy....I'm bloody impress with the tv. It's slim bezel & slick look transform my living hall futuristic deco. Just kidding but seriously darn nice to look at it. Here's my take on overall performances:-

3D - awesome man. Can't see the diff between active 3d & this passive. It's the best comfortable 3d ever. Family & friends of 8 can view in very wide angle. Light & laying on the couch & manage to watch the entire Despicable me in 1 go without strain in eyes.

Wifi- with unifi , loads of apps, loads of free 3D samplers, u tube etc. me love K- Pops..free MTV & live, interview etc. I feel so smart owning this smart tv.

Audio- with so slim bezel & tv, never imagine it produce quite powerful loud audio. It's way better then my older Samsung LCD & Panasonic Plasma. It surprise me. But then watching bd I'll opt for AV system.

HD- pass with flying color. It's colorful , so vibrant. Test in on Astro Beyond HD & bluray. Sure it's better then then my older LCD Samsung, but I luv the Samsung latest LED unit. Donno maybe they tested on their demo disc, thus looks better. I actually luv Samsung but then they do not produce passive 3D.

SD- not really my concern. My wife luv watching the poor Chinese drama disc so is my kids with their collection of cartoons on an old DVD player. It's ok only but can see the poor quality of the pics with loads of pixels. Watching tv programmes, none HD is acceptable.

All I can say LG produce most slickest flat tv at the moment. Watching 3D on a frameless tv is a whole new experience. It's like see them popping out at the side. Like viewing an aquarium. Donno how to describe...but simply amazing. This goes to watching other HD movies too.

Btw, I haven't calibrate my tv yet. I'll take a recommended calibration from website. Meantime, I switch to Vivid color coz I love colors. LG is good with color accuracy & vibrancy.

You can try Desa Home Theater in Low Yat Plaza.... just nego the hell out of their price...

Finally my orders for kids circular polarized glass frm EBay reached me. It cost me only RM54 for 6 pairs. So me kids now can comfortably watch 3d w/o fidgeting or adjusting the adult size glasses. Coz all the glass taint with fingerprints.

Now gonna watch my list long of 3D blurays I got frm Amz US & UK. So far 2 thumbs up frm me for IMAX Ultimate Wave 3D & Step UP 3d. Seriously amazing. Gonna watch Transformer , moon 3d later.
