Toshiba 20WL56 LCD TV

Jonathan2202 · 13-11-2005, 14:30

I am looking for a widescreen TV around the 20-21" size the only input i will be using for the time being any way will be the RF input as it will be going in the bedroom with a feed input from the RF2 output on my SKY+ box in another room.
My concern is what will the picture quality be like, at present i am using a 14" CRT and i would say the picture is very good. Am i correct in thinking LCD TVs are only any good when used with scart inputs with RGB or component?

If anyone out there has this TV and uses the built in tuner please could you comment on the picture quality.

Thanks

Just got the WLT model which includes Freeview tuner. Excellent picture and Freeview TV Guide. LCD picture takes some getting used to after a CRT, but it should be much better overall than your 14".

Cheers,

I've been trying to get hold of the 20WLT56 for a while but nowhere seems to have it in stock. Anyone n=know where I can pick one up from (preferably not Comet).

I got one from LEConcepts last week. £460 + delivery. Looks great.

Thanks Spannerjago but I'm after the new 20WLT56 not the 20WL56. The WLT has the integrated freeview decoder.

I've ordered one from Empire for about £440 and am hoping they get their stock some time this week.
