Wharfedale L19T11W - Any opinions?
Hello everyone,
I am currently in the market for a 19" widescreen LCD TV, with a built in digital receiver and maybe even a built in DVD player (but this in not a priority). The very little research that I have done so far has been flicking through the most recent Argos catalogue. The TV that I have found in there, that seems to tick most of the boxes is the above mentioned Wharfedale L19T11W, which is priced at £229.99. So, I am just wondering if anyone has come across this TV and has any useful info about it or alternatively if anyone can recommend anything that would be better, for a similar or more attractive price? Thanks very much in advance. Will |

We bought a W/dale for my daughters bedroom which matches your discription.
It went back after a week. Very wishy/washy colours & the DVD was not only mechanically noisey there was a constant 'warbling' on the sound which was annoying during quietier moments. On the subject of sound; very tinny - prepare to feed it through an amp! Replacement from Argos was an Acoustic Solutions. Same price but no DVD. Very good colours & better sound - just. It went back after two weeks! It kept switching itself off...................& on again. My Daughter then saw the light. 'I would rather pay more and have a good one' She said. She now has a Sony Cheapist I've seen it for is £350. It seems to be a splendid piece of kit! ![]() StereRowe |

No dispute from me on the comments here - I've stated a number of times to an extent you get what you pay for.
By my maths if the Sony is £ 350 and the Wharfedale is £ 230 then the Sony is around 52% more expensive. If you've got that to spend, then fine. Whereas if £ 230ish is your budget then your choice is going to be more limited. |

Thank you all for your feedback. I think I have read enough to be warned well and truly off the W'dale, but if anyone has any alternatives that perhaps fall in between £230 and £350 that they can recommend, that would be great!
Or, I am not dead set on it being 19", just want a good quality, reasonably priced TV for my bedroom. I plan to attach it all up to my powered speakers, so the speakers in the TV, don't have to be great. Any help would be great, thanks! |
