Suggestions for a new TV

[Ven]

Brilliant cannot wait to get a first hand report.

Good picture (once we took it off eco mode) and the sound is much better than both the Avtex and the Cello although still not amazing but adequate if you’re not too fussy. Easy set up too.

Does it have a Coaxial socket for sound output ( not the TV Ariel coax) . Only ask as I use Coaxial output to external amplifier to play sound through the rear speakers in the van which gives a really good quality sound output. Thanks.

Not sure as we use a plug in speaker with the 3.5mm socket. Dave doesn’t think it does have a coaxial but will check when we are back in the van.

I have the Sharp, got rid of an Avtex, much better picture and sound but is slow on start up so just be patient! With a sound bar even better! The sound output socket I use is the headphone one 3.5mm No idea for coax for speakers but has ( reading from left to right at the rear, 12/24V in ethernet, HDMI 1 Video, L and R sat in, RF in. optical and up the side HDMI2, USB x 2 earphones and YPbPrn ) Hope that helps!

Unless this answers your question Bobbydaisy

As to the robustness of it, time will tell. It seems pretty solid.

Thanks for the info , can use the optical connection for sound or the 3.5mm jack .

We don't watch our 21inch LG on the move, but no problems over 2 years with it in the motorhome. Are Avtex not standard OEM base TVs with a transformer added by Avtex?

I thought they were a Sony screen the rest not sure but its the large viewing angles that make them better than normal TV's.
