Forums Forums For Sale - Items FOR SALE: 42" PLASMA TV

lol, haven t tryed to sell it yet just thinking of things to swap, what about a 360 and some games

What did you do to get the sound working again - was it repaired (recipt) or did it just start working again?

Turns out when the shop put it back together there where wires touching a circuitboard from the speaker outputs, this is what was causing the sound not to work and the constant "buzzing" noise that was coming from the speakers even when the sound was off.

I had it repaired and have a reciept, it had dry joints & a few resistors had blown.
This plasma does not have the annoying exhaust fans like most, so it is very quiet but still gets very hot so needs to be in a well ventilated area.
I asked the repairman if i should fit fans to it but he said its designed not to have them as to keep noise levels down.
He said it is normal for plasmas to get very hot & not to worry about it.

Did the shop mention who the manufacturer of the screen itself is by any chance??

This is how much they cost new, this one is a year and a half old.

Jeeze I cant believe the prices some places charge for Plasma's, they are worth £600 - £800 max new nowadays. They cost next to nothing to make lol.

right, is it or isn t it hd

He said it isnt matey. But it can display high resolution VGA. Either way, it certainly won't be 1080 HD as plasma's under 50" never are (summit to do with technological constraints).

well that ad reckons it supports 1080....

Progressive scan 480I/P, 720P, 1080<--- i thought this was the next gen hd??? (1080)

Doesn`t that mean its hd mattyc???

Grrr, right i`m off to see if i can find any drivers for it, lol.

I didnt define it very well, I meant 1080p. It doesnt list on that site if its progressive or interlaced. If its 1080i (which I suspect as there are plenty of plasma's and LCD's capable of this), then this isnt the format being adopted by the market. 1080p is the future HD format to be adopted.

Also, make sure that set on the website is the exact same one. The best way to find the exact one is to google the model number. The inner workings are often changed from month to month, wheras the outer casing doesnt change very often.

I know when I bought an LG 32" LCD in 2005, I bought the RZ-32LZ50 and less then 2 months later, the LG RZ-32LZ55 was released (albeit a £100 more expensive) with full HD compatability, whereas mine was only only basic HD due to the XD Engine, and not defined as HD Ready due to limitations. The outer casing looked exactly the same though.

All i could find was this.

Fcuk it! lets just say its just a normal plasma.

On another note its screen pixels of WVGA 852x480 i think could in now way handle hd due to there not being enough pixels???

Can your graphics card do HD matey? If so, you should be able to select a resolution of 1280x720 @ 60Hz for it to be 720p.

Make sure its 60Hz though, as if it says out of frequency past 30Hz, it means the screen is 720i.

Forget 1080, its far too complicated and very rarely used at present (I think the PS3 supports it, but SkyHD is only 720p).
