    The screen is here http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/archive/PDP-4270XA/index.html (comes with a table top stand in the Box)

    and the surround sound system is here
    http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/42/100/42/DCS-353/index.html

    Got that surround system myself a while back. Great little system. Only caveat is that it doesn't have a optical in connection.

    From what I know, Pioneer TVs are renowned as being among the best you can get.

    If I was in the market for a system, I would take your hand off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,960 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Very generous offer.

    I'm hoping to get my hands on the Pioneer PDP-LX508D in the near future. Any discounts/bargains on one of them?;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    The LX50 is only in the door here. Nothing on them yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,960 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Yeah. They look fairly sweet!

    Shur if something comes up......

    Cheers.

    What happens about warranty?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    What do you mean what happens? You get your full warranty, and i think I can get an extra year with this. So 2 years in total.

    You will get a receipt, So theres not problem.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,042 ✭✭✭kaizersoze


    Very interested.

    What would be the payment and delivery options?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 jimmycricket


    I'd be interested in that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 470 ✭✭PIMPHO


    Why is the output on the surround system so low, 360w?

    Would you be able to get any discounts on any LCD tvs?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,300 ✭✭✭nice1franko


    I'm no expert but... is 3000:1 contrast ratio not crap?


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    Free Delivery anywhere in Ireland, Payment would be by cash / Credit Card or Cheque,

    The output is 360 because it's made like that,,, i didnt make them so i dont know.

    Pioneer dont do LCDs.

    3000:1 is not the best out there. But it's still good.

    "Resolution (horizontal x vertical) 1,024 x 768"!! :confused:

    Well if you're looking for a 1080p plasma, you'll be looking at a lot more than €1600!

    Pioneer plasma's are renowned for being pretty much (along with Panasonic) the best plasma's on the market today.
    Added to that, Plasma's give a better SD picture, and better black levels, than LCD.
    Plus, 1080p @ 42" will be almost unnoticeable unless you're sitting around 6 feet from the tv.

    So unless it's all 1080p content you're watching, from an almost nose touching distance from the screen, this would be a good set to go for.

    The biggest problem I'd have with the set is it only has 1 x hdmi socket.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,950 ✭✭✭fdevine


    Its a discontinued model of TV, but for that money its a steal.

    And from experience, the surround system is not lacking in power or bass.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,625 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    What I mean is is something goes wrong with it where does it have to be returned to you or a shop or the manufactors?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    Pioneer have there own Irish Service Dept on the Naas road. You could return it there or call the service dept they might be able to get it collected from your house. But all repairs happen in house and not in the home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 733 ✭✭✭bbbbb


    What about just the screen?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    the offer is for both, cant split it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    I've 2 people interested. Anyone else?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,389 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lenny


    I can vouch for the Never lad, got a pioneer djm 600 of him about 4/5 years ago and he looked after me, its still going good enough for me! :)
    didn't think you still worked in the place

    Can you get the surround sound system in a tall boy design?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    As i have said it's the systems i've stated.

    Of course Pioneer do a tallboy speaker but not as part of this deal.

    that price for the PDP-LX508D was just for the screen. you need to add speakers of 199 and a pedestal of 149 to those prices.

    so total for the PDP-lx508d inc speakers and basic pedestal is 5147

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,356 ✭✭✭NeVeR
