LG Shrinks HD Plasma TVs To 32in
LG has launched what it claims is the first mainstream production 32in plasma TV with the 32PG6000. Well, it’s certainly the only one you’ll get in the UK. LG launched a non-HD 32in plasma last year but, frankly, it wasn’t all that interesting for the price. Plasma technology tends to occupy the 40in+ marketplace due to the cost of producing the panels but, LG’s new 32in model brings some of plasma’s advantages over LCD [deeper blacks, smoother playback of fast-motion video like sports] to the mainstream TV sector. It’s a good looking box with a frameless design thanks to ‘Single Layer’ technology that uses a single sheet of glass. It’s a 720p TV [1024 x 720 pixels] with a generous 4 HDMI v1.3 inputs and 100Hz picture processing. HDMI v1.3 supports 30-bit, 36-bit and 48-bit (RGB or YCbCr) colour depths which does away with on-screen colour banding, supports four times more shades of grey and offers increased contrast. In fact, contrast for the 32PG6000 is rated at 30,000:1. In addition to cracking pictures, LG hired in audio guru, Mark Levinson, to tune the ‘invisible speakers’. The 2 x 10W speakers are placed behind the bezel with 2 bass downfirers and the sound resonates around the TV edge to create a wider sound field. The best bit though is that you can find the LG 32PG6000 for around £470 online here. Watch a video below.-Martin Lynch TV plasma HD
