42 LG 42PQ2000 HD Ready Digital Freeview Plasma TV

Thanks to its new 600Hz sub-field driving technology, the 42pq2000 boasts a fantastic picture quality. Although different from 100Hz technology in not offering a true interpolation between frames, the 600Hz technology works by "pulsing" each frame 12 times, thereby upgrading to standard 50Hz signal to an effective 600Hz one. If all this is double Dutch to you, then don't be concerned! Suffice to say that the new technology gives the 42pq2000 a superb response with incredible realism and super-sharp tracking on fast moving motion such as sports events. The figures showing a stunning dynamic contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1 and brightness of 1500cdm say a great deal, but the proof of the LG's superior picture quality is in the watching.

The two "invisible" speakers not only improve the look of the TV, but also give good quality audio for a TV. The SRS TruSurround XT is a high quality surround sound effect processor which you'll usually only find on much more expensive TVs. Combined with the "Invisible" speaker system, you'll find it gives the LG 42PQ2000 a smooth, spacious sound that's less boxy-sounding than many TVs. In addition to this, the "Clear Voice II" feature will make following dialogue easy when watching action-packed movies and will get the best out of the built-in HD Freeview tuner.

The connections of this LG 42pq2000 are fantastic, you not only get the basics that you would expect, but you get more. It has three HDMI inputs, two to the rear of the screen and one side mounted which allows you to get the best image and audio quality from any external unit connected to the TV. It also boasts two SCART connections as well as a component connection for all your analogue sources. It has a very useful PC Input so it will complement your home computer perfectly and also has a built-in USB port so you can upload and store your pictures and audio quickly and easily from your camera or phone.

The integral upgraded Intelligent Sensor 2 automatically adjusts the colour depending on the viewing environment. This optimises the picture quality and also can reduce your energy bill, recommended by Energy Savings Trust.

Overall, this sleek looking TV has a matching swivel stand and will compliment any interior design. It is a great TV at a great price!
