Hitachi 42PD6600 review

 

A 42in plasma for £1,300? What's the catch?

Good value for money

No image processor

It's the £1,300 price tag that makes this set one that you should have on your shortlist

Both TV and remote are easy to use and overall this TV was excellent value for money.

None really, but if I had to pick one, the sound could be a little better.

Children are enjoying the more educational programmes in HD such as Blue Planet and the World Cup has been great

Haven't found any yet except that there is more screen to dust.

Hitachi 42PD6600

 

Excellent picture, easy to set up and seems pretty wife proof so far!!

Only minor point really, its got HDMI inputs, Component and VGA, but no DVI connection, bit of a pain when trying to coonect a Media centre into it. I ended up just using a VGA lead so no real drama.

Hitachi 42PD6600

 

Ample connections at the rear for just about any thing you would want to plug in. I’ve got mine hooked up to a media PC and the picture quality is fantastic. Surfing the Net on a 42” wide screen is out of this world. Another thing that I particularly...

No front or side connections for hooking up games consoles or video camera (they’re at the back). No DVBT tuner only analogue. Sound is OK but could be better but if your really serious you’ll have it hooked up to a good surround sound system any way.
