Chocka full is kiwi for lots, so please read lots of usb slots.

Mate I have been in NZ longer than you,so don't tell me what Choka means.

We are saying that USB slots should be in the right place at the right time.

You must be Dutch?

862128 2010-03-23 23:07:00 I was surprised by how poor the audio of my TV is, Well below an acceptable level.

Granted I was always going to bypass the TV speakers and the audio goes via an amp to a set of speakers (and sounds stunning) but its still a letdown.

I know someone who paid many thousands for their TV so I checked out their audio, It was better but still imo sub-standard.

862129 2010-03-24 00:56:00 Ya,there is a tendency to go on about the picture,with no mention of sound.
I wonder if anybody on here as been sold a TV on sound quality?

My current TV has an optical output from the TV to the amp.

862134 2010-03-25 02:01:00 I use an external amp and speakers for some programs, but it is a nuisance that the TV mute control and volume then have no effect. The missus is pressing the normal buttons, and complains that they don't work. Not too techno savvy. I am still using a tube TV - JVC - with listenable audio. Sent a Philips one back after 1 day because the sound was lousy. Consumers last test slated the sound on every model. All were unacceptable. Hopefully by the time I need a new one, they will have some decent sounding models.:rolleyes: Peter H (220)
862135 2010-03-25 02:38:00 When watching TV I use the TV speakers, but when watching DVDs I have the sound going through a stereo.
