The latter one seems fine with speakers and woofers. But I prefer Sony.

I checked its site and noth are priced at Rs 50,000. But considering the festive season, you may get lucky.

I have LG's 32" LCD; it rocks!!! Go for it!!!

Through hardly any diff. in performance; Sony may be 4k more than your budget.

I bought the 32inch Scarlet 2.0 which was too sexy to resist. Secondly, the comparative Sony Bravia model with 100hz was ~60k as quoted by the dealer. Moreover, the LG displays have IPS technology. Try knocking the screen and you'll see the difference...no impact is created on LG displays. It cost me 40k with a HDMI DVD player + 50 movies free.

Nice choice bro. LG panel rocks.

Now that you also have a HDMI (probably upscaled) DVD player; its a good idea to invest in a 5.1ch AV receiver.

^ exactly. Thats what I'm thinking. LG always provides great value-for-money in each of its products. I'm just happy for the fact that now I'll have a TV with a working remote and working controls.

It's actually 42k with the offer of DVD player + 50 movies. Without the offer, it's a little less than 40k. Dealers always sell at a price lower than the quoted MRP. I bought from Delhi.

I refuse to believe that. If not, then as friends, it is our right to demand that they borrow a cam from someone to post pics. Maybe they can hire you toofan, as professional photographer!

Thanks ico. See toofan, both these cunning Delhiites were making us drool by not posting pics. Both have decent cameras. Please review your TV's you both.

Review? In a nutshell, you won't find any better LCD TV under 40k than the above mentioned ones. LG rocks and Sony Bravia is the most overrated sh!t. LFC_fan will also agree with me.
