Hi,

I'm trying to decide between these 2 models and hoping to get some insightful feedback from anybody out there... There's not much info online (I guess these models are pretty new), here's what I could find:

About LG RZ-32LZ50:
LG-France page http://av.samsung.de/print_article.asp?artid=FF209D41-D025-4D15-A9BE-51DC19BB9F3 C

In English at Pixmania http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/57944/art/samsung/lcd-16-9-monitor-le-32a41.html #fichetechnique

Their price is about the same (between 2,300 and 2,500 Euro) The major technical highlights/differences I see between both are:
- Resolution: Both sets 1366x768
- Luminance: Both sets 500 cd/m2
- Progressive scan: Both sets feature it.
- Sound: 2x10w Nicam/A2 in both sets.
- PC-input: Present in both sets
- Contrast: Samsung = 600:1, LG = 500:1
- Response time: Samsung = under 16ms, LG = 18ms
- Viewing angle: LG = 176º, Samsung = 170º
- Teletext: Samsung = 200 pages, LG = 10 pages
- Digital input: Samsung = DVI w/ HDCP, LG = DVI-I (not sure what the difference is here)
- Image processing: Samsung = DNIe 3 (Digital Natural Image Engine), LG = XD Engine & Faroudja DCDi

From the technical spec sheets I'm tempted to go with the Samsung set, although I guess a lot of the final image quality will depend on the image processing engines, and I have only seen the LG at work (quite impressive!), not the Samsung.

Does anybody want to throw in their 2 cents about which way to go? Many thanks...

I am also interested in the LG RZ32LZ50 but cannot find any specs - even on LG site, not even listed. My main concern is why Comets, for instance, say it has not any scart skts, s video i/p etc. or other connections when they are quite clearly behind the rear panel. Have they been disabled for some reason? Sales staff are unhelpful on these points. Is it a case of buy at your own peril?
