All the more for Panasonic, Sony and Samsung. |

Of course this is the period when Philips were still being made in Europe (and were correspondingly expensive)... Wouldn't buy one now though - or any Philips product for that matter. |

| 707408 | 2008-09-26 21:19:00 | I seem to recall that early TV's in NZ were largely Phillips, or Phillips kitsets in a variety of cases. The somewhat weird variations were largely reserved by Phillips for their own brand though (Hi-Z speakers etc.) | R2x1 (4628) | ||
