This screen offers great performance and features, but is let down by a one-year warranty.

The LG 42LC2DR is a good mid-range unit with an integrated HDTV tuner and DVR and only a handful of image quality problems when viewing HD content.

If you have the will power to overlook quite a few visual aberrations, then this display might do the job.

The HD-D45 had so much potential, all of which was wasted on an abominable headache enducing display.

The Sanyo LCD-47XR2 sits at the low end of the market when it comes to price, but has the image quality and overall performance that makes it a viable budget alternative to some of the big boys.

The Bravia KDL46D3100 showed excellent performance across all modes and resolutions including standard definition and will no doubt please most users. The only downfall is a oversaturation of red in the image but this may not by an important factor for the majority of consumers.

If you run a media centre, you may need to look elsewhere, but if high definition videos and gaming appeal to you, the full 1080p 43W3001 is a great value for money display.

The good picture quality and great price would help you overlook limited speakers and the absence of preset modes.
