Looking for TV replacement ($300-$700)

Hi All,

This is my first forum post.
Our TV just died (it was a 32" bravia) and it could not have happened at a worse time (xmas means the TV becomes a free babysitter for our nieces and nephews)

So what is the best I can I get for $300 - $700 between today or in a week?

What matters:
  • size,
  • resolution,
  • viewing angles,
  • colour/contrast/clarity
What doesn't matter
  • no need for heaps of ports - we'd be happy with a single hdmi input+ standard audio out/3.5m jack.
  • no need for great software/tuner - I will never ever use the built in - most likely will just plug in apple tv and leave it at that.
What would be nice
  • good industrial design would be nice but again its the panel that matters most, not the software and not the ports

I would be fine going with most things 32"-46" 50/55 is way too big to not be an eyesore in our living room.

Worth noting we live in Brisbane near the CBD

      IS jbhifi really the best value vendor for this kind of thing ?

      any other recommendations ?

        dick smith is probably the best place to look

      Thanks, the sony one it is replacing died only just outside of its warranty however. i'm a little more sceptical of that brand now

    Pick one with a long warranty most brands seem to try and make there products last the warranty +/-50% so if you get one with a 12 month warranty you would be lucky to get 18 months out of it
