QUOTE(ub3rg33k @ Aug 3 2008, 08:45 PM) Newbie here, but I read almost the whole V2 thread and given the recommendations of the kaki's here (including the one about trusting your own eyeballs), I plonked down some money for a 42" PV80H since it seems the best value after surveying around for quite some time already. LOL... Mine also coming tmr.... Yeah baby... I also wondering will the Monster S-video cable makes any different compare with the manufacturer given 1... Will it really MAKES DIFFERENT?It's coming tomorrow and I can't wait even though I had originally thought of buying it much later. Sigh... I am so prone to impulse buying. Hopefully mine won't have any issues. It's my first flat panel and I feel giddy thinking of watching Return of the King on my new TV tomorrow. Just one question about cables (HDMI, S-Video). Are those expensive Monster Cables worth it or the ones that comes from the manufacturer sufficient? |

QUOTE(ub3rg33k @ Aug 3 2008, 10:45 PM) Haha.. that makes two of us. Wow...u get a better deal than me... mine is 4099 and come with 48cans of coke... LOL...Been rummaging around the Audiophile section and found this discussion. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/738072 Apparently, for short lengths, it doesn't matter much, but even if it does, there is another thread where someone is selling Monster Cables at much lower prices than those in stores. Don't have the link to the thread, but you should have no problem finding it using the search function. Perhaps one of the gurus here will enlighten us on cables later. BTW, just to be curious. How much you paid for it? I got mine for 4299, but they threw in a Panasonic digicam too. Not too bad. The salesperson also wanted to give me a carton of Coke or something due to the Beijing 08 promotion, but I insist on something else (dun wanna push my blood sugar level to dire state). So he ended up giving me two big bags of Fab detergent! Lol.. not sure where those are from, but probably free gift from the washing machine section or something. He also tell me regarding the camera deal... price slightly higher but i dun 1 coz already got Lumix PnS and DSLR. Anyway, if u got news regarding the monster cable, pls do let me know.. I already saw the thread in lowyat, just wanna make sure it really helps if i buy. Thanks. |

QUOTE(han2nd @ Aug 6 2008, 02:56 PM) last time you also look for py800 isnt it ? what make you change your mind ? Yeah... last time i also look for PY800.... after checking out the price, i get very confuse.... coz someshop no price.. some shop too pricey... some forumer sell too cheap... no confident on this buy...Also, after reading and research over the net.... We cant get the best of HDTV... Plasma and LCD got own pros and cons... so i decided to get the PV80 for my Astro needs... and Later another LCD for my PC viewing/Gaming... Both item add up also maybe 8k and i get 2 HDTV that serve different purposes... rather than paying 7k solely on Pana Py800... At the end of the story, i got 2 TV rather than 1... If ur budget more than 8k.... Maybe u can get a Py800 and something else... LOL..... |

i've been using my Pana PV80 for 1 week...
I notice Pana got less things/ settings to play with compare to Sammy... Every things is pre-set ... u just need to choose which 1 to use.... Anyway, Olympic channel looks good on my Panna... So... no 1 can advise me on HTIB?? I've checking out on Sony and Pioneer... Almost same price... dunno which 1 to buy.... should i get back Pana brand? |

nice image up there...
Anyway, i just wanna share my thought with u all.... I think Sony 5ucks big time when playing low resolution stuff (Astro)... But it is really good when u plug in a Blueray player, PS3 or PC input... Like i said earlier, my parent using 46" V series... The reason i say Sony 5uck because the colour production is not natural.... Yes, i am a buyer of Sony TV because the Sony branding is very good... but i will have to admit sony Not So Good in LCD(X series is good though) from my point of view and i regret of choosing Sony V series for my parent. Basically every forumer will fight back when u say the BRAND of HDTV they already bought no good or 5uck... This is typical Malaysian mind set, kia su mind set... cannot accept ppls opinion.... I dun simply crap this statement out as i am working in a automotive industry and sometimes i have to collect information from internet regarding the vehicle produce by my company and i couldn't get any info because even if the vehicle got defects or design issue.. the forumer will say something good about it because they already fork out 100plus K to get the car... Typical Malaysian mind set... K. S. I bought a PV80, u can say my Plasma sucks... and sometimes, i have to agree because... Pioneer is still the best and i dun have the $$ to go for that a better 1... But we have to satisfied with what we could buy... For 4k, i think this is the best i can get fullfilling my usage... Conclusion, comparison is needed when u wanna purchase a HDTV... but dun flame on others ppl stuff... maybe thats the best they can affort... maybe their usage is different... maybe u are faking rich... maybe u just know how to talk c0ck and buy nothing... think about it...

QUOTE(obiwankedah @ Aug 27 2008, 12:33 AM) ya...but what im asking is about the C.A.T.S I not too sure what is the CATS thing all about but i do think that it is important... --> Will the C.A.T.S be worth it to buy the PV80H instead of the lower price PV8H? (Contrast Automatic Tracking system) adrian dude. PM best price for the PV80H plus the bracket and installation.. thanks I been to a Pana shop at SS2. The boss line up a PY800, Pv80 and Pv8 and play a "ahem" DVD... PY800 of course is da best... Follow by PV80.... the picture quality DEFINATELY got different for PV80 to PV8, i mean to my eye la... MAYBE the seller din do setting... But when i ask him why... he dunoo say what the PV80 got 1 extra features ma.... I assume is this CATS thing coz i other than this... I only see SD and Physical different only..... JUST GET PV80, NO REGRET! |
