if i'm not wrong, N71 is the 7th generation whilst R/S 81 is the 8th. the 8th generation has better colour contrast. R81 has 3 HDMI inputs whilst S81 has 2. R8 of course has better picture quality and more functions. if u r not so concern about the video/ audio connections, functions and quality, go for S81. i got the 32" for my mbr. bought it at 1199 with 150 choice vouchers.

sorry to those i have replied late as i was busy shifting, packing and setting up my place. not forgetting the picture quality update. to those who are keen, i have upgraded the video cables to better quality type i.e QED and Van Dan Hul for the entertainment setup in the living area. picture has improved quite alot. no more 'waves', better image and colour density too. took me quite some time to try different tunings on the R81. those factory settings difinitely need to be adjusted to your environment. viewing distance and area lighting affects too.

now is GSS, it would be around that price. last weekend, some departmental stalls had special post-vesak day sale.

oic, sorry thought u looking for those built in ovens. will let u know if i come across any gd find
-
i think karen's looking for a bigger oven enough to grill a whole chicken, isn't it? microwave oven size type a little too small.
-
itz gd too. put side by side compare lor. as a consumer, compare the picture quality, looks, functions, ease of use, price and gift benefits, last but not least audio quality ( i dont really care abt this as im using ht). if u are to ask me which to get, u already know my answer bro
-
they ar not panel makers but the processor board is gd.
-
ok since u r happy, everyone's happy for u too. gd luck
-
wah karen, your budget almost difficult to get brand new leh. maybe 2nd hand oven has slight chance. try jalan besar.

yea your topic mislead people thoughts. anyway, some home deco magazines ever feature this concept before. i reckon u r toking abt suspended tv from the ceiling? if u r a home theatre audiophile fan, i suggest dont go into this concept. u may need to change or add-on any wires/ RCA/ optical/ HDMI cables that are linked to the tv. unless u are very firm with your av connections, 'suspended' tv is linked via ceiling/ ground to the stell pipes. again the additional length of gd quality wires not cheap tho. do give it some thoughts. cheerios.

initial i wanted the LG7R too. 2weeks ago, LG had a roadshow selling 42" at $2999 with freebies. besides LC4/ 7 series, LG new models are LY, LB4/5 and 9 series. some models are 5ms response time and 120hz refresh rate. these models are better and more functions but i doubt they gonna bring in here. its mainly for western region. from what i was told, LC7 is to replace LB1 with higher contrast ratio, additional HDMI and better response time. LC4 is to replace LC2 with similar descriptions mentioned earlier. 42LB7R has lesser gift benefits and price much higher compare to 40R8. since 40R8 is cnet asia editor's choice model and very popular in the states, i know i cant go wrong. so in the end i chose a R8. if u can wait another 3 months or more, the price will dropped further despite the 7% GST. some new models for most brands will be out last quarter of the year. click on the link to find out more abt R8. http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/home_av/tvs/0...0343522p,00.htm dont get me wrong, im not samsung promoter. juz sharing what i've gone thru. hope the info helps. cheerios.

today did a simple test. swopping the provided tv cable (that came with the new 32" and 40" samsungs) to my old crt cable. picture has no waves or distortion. very slight pixelization on some tv dramas. did experiment on 3 different tv, same results thus conclusion is that the supplied tv cables do sux.

Samsung Bordeaux Plus R8 32" - Promo At It Show 2007
fungamer replied to stjoe's topic in Electronics & Electricals
dont worry abt R8, the text is sharp and clear on my 40" so 32" shouldn;t be a problem. the last time i asked abt 32" R8 was around $17++ region. that was 2 weeks ago. gifts offered around the same. -
the lack of stock problem comes from agent and i understand it happens pretty island wide stores. guess its either u wait for the new shipment or use old gas type lor. i had this probelm too in april and opted for carrier system 3 instead.

hi, i bought a Hitachi top loading 8kg. 900 rpm. got it at $500. as long u load your dirty clothes into the washing bags, clothes will not get damaged easily.

nice deal tho. since u got it recently, look out for any defects and dead pixels. i understand u can 1 to 1 exchange within 7 days. after that will be under repair warranty. dead pixels can be pretty obvious while watching i.e 'glowing stars'. otherwise there's a dp test program which u can dl and install into notebook, connect via pc port and give it a test. look out for 'clouds' especially the corners. if all these pass, sit back and enjoy. im quite fussy about picture and audio quality. so i guess i have to try with scv analog and digital boxes to see the diff, rather than tone down the contrast. not sure if the provided RF/ TV cable is any gd quality. i will update after i've done my tests. yea that's the common understanding. however, i find it strange why juz channel 5 and 8 have this 'wavy' problem. suria, channel news asia and kids central(especially) are pretty sharp and clear. some people told me itz 'intentional' if u know what i mean. i think we have the same problem. other than the living room, i tested the mbr tv also similiar problem. will let u know once i find clues. tv signal booster helps a little. there's another device which can reduce noise for audio and video. some audiophiles swear by this device which can be found in adelphi. itz not cheap tho.

juz got my 2 sets today on time. delivery was on time. didnt see any noticeable dead pixels. however, there were noticeable 'waves' or noise on channel 5 and 8 (using standard tv/fm box). other channels were normal and clear. does anyone have this problem too? hmm, later in the day i will try with scv box and different cables and try to rectify.

hi, from your layout, u might get only 5 ft+ each if u are to build on both sides. unless u hack off the door wall to extend. otherwise, an inverted 'U' shaped may be considered too. .........====== .........|...........| .........|...........| .........|...........| .....................| .....................| ====washroom this may greatly 'camouflage' your washroom entrance from your mbr entrance. use the corners to hang longer dresses and coats. however, do consider abt the cost involve and the area needed. cheerios.

Lcd Turnable 180deg
fungamer replied to Vessel's topic in RENOVATION IDEAS: Interior Design Themes, Space Planning
yea seriously considering LG. was going for 42LB1R but itz only 1 HDMI input. other options were samsung s/r 81 or philips. since LG recently launched new models, might take a closer look for final decision. called up LGE Sg earlier afternoon, they are not bringing in the LB and LY series which meant for western using NTSC. however they may be bringing in another new model sometime in september. seriously how did u review against other brands in terms of picture quality and functions.
