a saw the website of AV Surfer offering this plasma for 29.9K plus the MySound 5.1 home threater system

tempting....

still torn between this and the panasonic 42in plasma which has the same market price.

Sir Blake,

Regarding Av Surfer with home theater, what branch of AV Surfer have this promo for 29K?

hcubueno · « **Reply #63 on:** Mar 10, 2011 at 10:35 AM »

They are offering the 29K promo with home theater at AV Surfer RCBC Plaza Makati

hcubueno · « **Reply #64 on:** Mar 10, 2011 at 10:47 AM »

I called up Avid Sony shop trinoma. The promo is available to all Avid Surfer shops in the metro.
Sony Avid Shops can also sell them but on order basis since these shops only carry Sony products by default.

@hc bueno

till march 19 sila sa RCBC PLAZA third floor

one week na tv ko

kaso need ko i wall mount (999 from LG for service)

so far so good

hi guys,

OT lng po: Ano po mas ok LG plasma 42PJ350 or Pana plasma 42x20? In terms of price, PQ and features. TIA!

blake · « **Reply #67 on:** Mar 17, 2011 at 08:23 AM »

base sa research ko before I bought my unit

may problem ata sa black yung panasonic

read it avforum and avsforum

not sure how much panasonice here

but so far so good yung pj350r ko

the more I use it, the PQ keeps on getting better and better

nsp · « **Reply #68 on:** Mar 17, 2011 at 12:28 PM »

didn't bother to break in my unit.
i figured if it is absolutely necessary, the manufacturers would have done that themselves because it would be to their own advantage.
also, the phosphor-based crt doesn't need break in so why should the plasma be any different.

i hope i won't regret it someday

what i did was to download a DIY calibration video via torrent

and use the results as my setting. the setting is very similar to cinema mode. so far i am very satisfied with the pq. colors are accurate pero malamig sa mata. di tulad ng mga lcd sa showrooms na very vivid yung colors pero inaccurate and masakit sa mata kapag nanood ka ng matagal.

blake · « **Reply #69 on:** Mar 17, 2011 at 02:00 PM »

baka pwedeng pashare ng calibration video sir

nsp · « **Reply #70 on:** Mar 17, 2011 at 02:09 PM »

i downloaded this via torrent:

"Monster ISF HDTV Calibration"

AV Surfer sa Ali Mall Cubao may 2 stocks pa as of last Saturday......free 5.1 MySound speaker.....30K cash price! Pede rin 12 mos! Look for Ms Ana. very accomodating staffs dun!!!!

karzai · « **Reply #83 on:** Apr 05, 2011 at 01:43 PM »

It's actually good that they're including a home theater setup.

Kahit sobrang high end ng tv mo at spectacular yung content na pinapanood mo, parang kulang pa rin kapag yung sounds mo ay galing lang sa TV, na most of the time ay tunog basura.

Some people are more concerned with sound that their home theater system costs several times more than their tv's.

Well I think it's a pretty good deal.

Enjoy your movies then.

dmaximus · « **Reply #84 on:** Apr 07, 2011 at 07:32 AM »

they have one @ av surfer festi. 30K with wallmount but no free hometheater.

kneel · « **Reply #85 on:** Apr 08, 2011 at 02:59 AM »

I went to to AV Surfer Alimall yesterday. Nakita ko ung free it's not a home theater it's just like a 5.1 sound bar..30k sa cash, 33,600 for 12 months..however i decided to have the Samsung 43D450..

Sir Macoyzki so far so good. Everyday the pQ is just getting better and better, still medyo mahirap nga lang kunin ung perfect timing of the PQ, as advised by abenson, pag dumating na daw ung wallmount, papa calibrate daw ung Pic sa samsung mismo. They indeed do calibration for free... then unlike other Plasma TV na grabe kung uminit sya hindi ganun, i tried to open the TV for almost half day di sya ganun kainit. Sound is superb....

macoyzki · « **Reply #89 on:** Apr 15, 2011 at 06:05 AM »

@ Sir kneel- ayus ah! Nice!

I called LG, wala daw silang free calibration...sbi ko nga baket yung Samsung at Panasonic meron...huhu. Pero in fairness, amazed ako sa customer service nila. Ang bilis ng response nila at maayos kausap.

My 42PJ350R is doing great din. My plasma's PQ gets better and better everyday din. Sound is great even at low volume, clear and balanced.
