Default 120hz 5:5 Pulldown 1080p/24 Displays As Low As $889 For 37 Inch

True 120HZ 5:5 pulldown 1080P displays for only $889


I do not like LG products that much but they are priced cheaper then any other TV on the market. LG is the very first and only manufactory currently that has a true 1080P/24 display under $1,000. The following LG display according to the spec sheet is a true 120HZ 5:5 pulldown display when a 1080P/24 signal is received from a BLU-RAY player.



LG 37LG60 (1080P/24 correctly refreshed at 120HZ when Truemotion is off and Real Cinema is on)

The LG37LG60 can be purchased by mail order for $889 with free shipping.

The LG has poor black levels and contrast ratios that makes the picture quality not as good as a Sony or Samsung LCD screen. Still at these prices it may make an ideal display for a room in the house that is not used that much. Not everyone can afford to have a high-end Pioneer Plasma in every room of the house.

I have edited this post so that it has correct information. The 32 inch LG's are only 60HZ displays and not 120HZ like LG says in the manual.

that seems very good deal. if i can't get rid of triple ball effect on certain console games on my th-42pz80u, i might return it and get that set.
how good is it anyway? is it any better than samsung LN40A630 or comparable? it sounds pretty sweet on spec. also is beachcamera dot com
trust worthy source? never shopped anything from them b4.

The Samsung LN40A630 is a better quality display compared to the LG. It costs more also. You can get a Samsung LN40A630 for around $1,234 with free shipping.

The advantage of buying at a Retail Store is that if there is a problem it is easier to return within 30 days. Mail order you have to pay for return shipping and there are sometimes restocking fees.

local circuit city is selling LN40A630 for $1299..
i've got my panasonic th-42pz80u from best buy but they do the price matching too so i think i can get LN40A630 for same price.

and as for that triple ball effect on panasonic plasma, it only occurs when you play certain games. for example, town background in tales of vesperia for xbox 360 looks absolutely garbage in this set. ok, it looks good when you are not moving but when you start running, it creates horrible triple clone images of entire backdrop, it almost is unwatchable. also i hear sonic game suffers from that effect too when camera pans. i haven't checked with all of my game but at least soul calibur iv seemed ok. i am going to go home and try to mess with setting some more but if it doesn't get any better, i will be forced to return it again. again, it only happens when you play certain games. movies or tv show looked great on both sd and hd.

If you think your plasma is the cause of this, then you will be in for a rude awakening if you think LCD will be better. What you describe almost sounds like lag, and there is virtually no lag in plasma, but significant lag (relatively speaking) in LCD. If it's only certain games, then I would suspect it is the GAME that's the problem. I play a variety of 360 and PS3 games on my Pany plasma, and have never seen what you are describing. I just don't want to see you make a big mistake by taking your set back, because it is a very highly rated set around here.

if so how come my 5 years old 24 inch lcd dell monitor with 12ms response time displays this game better?
it has minor ghosting issue on same game but not as bad as this.
at least it doesn't create triple ball effect(more like minor double image).
seriously, tales of vesperia looks 10x worse on this plasma. =(

Hmmmmm....Well, I'm at a loss. You might want to start a thread in this forum and ask others for their input on this. Seriously, I would look into a solution before you simply swap sets. If you do decide to swap sets, take your 360/PS3 and your problem game with you and ask the store if you can hook it up and test it before you buy another set. Also try it on another Pany plasma. Maybe there is something wrong with yours?

Oh, are you connected via HDMI or component? You might try a different connection type, different cable or different input and see if that makes a difference.
