First of all I am considering getting the LXD700 and wondered whether this a good choice for SD pictures and DVD?

Also I need an upscaling DVD Player to go with it and don't know which to go for so would very much appreciate advice.
It must be easy to set up and use.

Thanks!

Why?, the TV already has it's own upscaler - and presumably, as it's an expensive TV from a very reputable manufacturer, it will be a good one.

My brother-in-law has the 700. The picture is fu**ing brilliant and the basta*d paid a lot less than I did for its predecessor's predecessor. Or was that its predecessor's predecessor's predecessor, the "52" which is pretty damned good.

I was watching SD on the 700 the other evening and was convinced it was HD until I realised he has no HD source. Go for it!

So which DVD Player would you recommend?

That is great news! Well not that he paid less than you did for the predessor'rs predessor's predecessor! but that the TV is good.

Do you know what DVD Player, if any, he uses with it?

Panasonic DVD-S97 is fab - if you can find one (try e-bay). http://www.homecinemachoice.com/cgi-...?reviewid=5933

Sony DVD/HD. Not sure which but is about 3 years old.

I have a Panny DVD/ HD and Sony dedicated DVD player - see my PM, but the picture is great on my TV. Both use component feeds.

Thanks both!
