FYR : Sony sales person @ sony center (Ghatkopar, Mumbai) mentioned about freebies (3D glasses) during Navratri and Diwali season.
He suggested me to wait until 12th October.
Finally settled in for 40 inch full HD television.
Wasn't easy task in finalizing television as wanted to make every member happy.[
Sorry that I couldn't complete as accidentally pressed send button while traveling back home.
Finally booked Philips 40 PFL4650 @30k without any exchange & got 5 years comprehensive brand warranty from *www.kohinoortv.com/ Malad store.

LED TV 40PFL4650/V7 | Philips
Almost had finalized to get Panasonic 42C410 42 inch IPS superbright plus with 3 yrs warranty on 11th October.
TH-42C410D LED LCD TV - Panasonic India
In fact on 14th would have booked from paytm in 10k cashback offer but my PSU bank rejected the transaction as they do not honour debit card transactions above 25k. Later the same day offer ended on that model & had to wait till yesterday i.e. 28th October.
In between while checking out for some other better offers offline we got to compare Philips & Panasonic side by side in 2-3 showrooms. Panasonic's brighness was superb but it failed to reproduce colours & skin tones to our liking & moreover it lacked format support(saved my immediate investment for BlueRay Player). The UI of panasonic felt dead slow compared to Philips 2015 series. Colours were overtly saturated & somewhat unreal for my preference.
SD channels felt bit more fuzzy to my eyes when compared to Philips models.
It also lacked headphones out.
Considering all these points I took my call yesterday i.e. 28th October & after hard bargain settled in for Philips 40 PFL4650 by paying 1k advance.
Its not that Panasonic 42C410 is bad but did not felt VFM @42k actual price even though I would have got it for @32k net pricing after 10k cashback in paytm wallet. I was not comfortable waiting for Cashback & keeping it blocked in paytm wallet. So instead I preferred to book some other household appliances from the same store.
Thanks to all my friends & fellow members [MENTION=85950]Gollum[/MENTION] [MENTION=125133]Minion[/MENTION], [MENTION=120775]GhorMaanas[/MENTION] & others who help me & had patience to answer to my queries in forum thread as well as private messages.
Thanks again.
get dishTruHDShould I get voltage stabilizer/ surge protector for my led tv?
Sony & LG are shouting loud about their 4 way or 6 way protection.
Is it necessary in metro cities? Or just marketing techniques?
Did not see anything on box. The package is still not opened. Waiting for installation.
Any pointers for dth dish tv or tatasky or airtel ?
Need best picture quality in SD as well as HD

There isn't any 5.1 speaker that supports 5.1 digital input via HDMI or SPDIF or Coaxial.The television was installed on Monday but could not take pics while unboxing as was not at home. Will update with pics later on.
The installer did decent job & Philips customer care was prompt to react. He told voltage stabilizer/surge protector not needed but I may purchase v-guard stabilizer later on as suggested by [MENTION=85950]Gollum[/MENTION] & [MENTION=125133]Minion[/MENTION].
For DTH Airtel was in mind but in the end selected Tatasky for their Service & HD count [Mega HD Pack @8600]. Dish TV is almost non existent in our locality & felt costlier for their max package.
Thanks to all.
Would like to continue here for seeking advice on speakers for my LED.
Anyone tried connecting 5.1 speaker sets to LED TV?
Edifier DA 5000 pro is appealing @7999 but from shopclues.com
I do not intend to buy any Blue ray/ Media player soon so wanted speaker set to be directly connected to TV Or Tatasky HD box which has optical/SPDIF out along with normal AV out.

Ok sir will try connecting my edifier c2 first. If I am not mistaken edifier da 5000 pro has AV in & 3.5mm pc input in subwoofer unit. The sub of da 5000 pro has in built amplifier & all speakers are connected to it. So I guess all speakers may be powered but not sure if output & effects will be loud enough.
Will I be able to control volume through tv if connected using av cable?
