Sorry haven't heard of anything like that. Tons of forumites here have bought the PS42C430 but it's possible none of them have HD PVR. I'm sure we would have heard about it though.

Also many of them have HD media players, same sort of interface as HD PVR (HDMI) and I'm pretty sure they run audio and video over HDMI into their TV's...

so did you end up taking the display unit at Hirsch?
the TV must have some audio out...can't you get a converter of sorts?
 
took the display model which had just been replaced by the samsung rep a week earlier but i have noticed a problem with the screen and have told hirsch they HAVE to come out and view the tv in my house under my setting else i will kick them upside of the head.

They have digital out? dont know what converter to get for that or if u even get one.
 
concerning the ps50c550.... try phoning the game in east gate, they have stock and then quote the price of dion wired @ R9999 and they will price beat it for u.

hehehe, oh right! my bad :)
If its such a mission to buy the PS42C450 in a shop then I'm tempted to just get the C430...but I don't want any HDPVR issues... :( (dont have HDPVR yet, but wanna get one)

Well if you can wait 1 - 2 weeks I can still get you one. Feel free to PM for info.
 
That said, the stock speakers are pretty damn good though.

Nothing like the STR500 though......

:D

thanks PP! just one question...what happens if there's a problem with the unit? will it be a mission to replace?
also, do you have any insights on the Panasonic X-series plasmas..? easy digital has it for R7,500....
 
if you gonna spend 7500 on a 42 inch plasma you might as well buy the 50c450 from cats digital for 7999.
 
if they cant fix my screen (weird darker black lines in corner of screen) then i am going to get the ps50c450

Would be done through the Samsung agents. I would deal direct with them. Seems some people prefer dealing with Samsung customer support first, and then wonder why the agents take so long to get back to them. :D

Panasonic plasmas are generally very good. Not sure about specifics though. Probably better than Sammy though. They has Pioneer tech!

They're all over Jo'burg? Loads of forumites here have been getting them up there? What about the PS50C450 special, where was it, Cats?

:confused:

Sorry, i meant C550 on special.
Game has it for 12k, cats for 10.5k (gonna see them this weekend).
Want Full HD cos when i game, i sit quite close to TV (1.5m) for quite sure it will make a difference.

Do i need something official for Game to beat the price.
