Other Things To Consider With The Panasonic TH 42px60u 42 Plasma HDTV

Style
One of the complaints for earlier models of Panasnic’s plasmas was that the style of the set just didn’t match the brilliant picture qualities. To make up for this the TH-42px60u has a very modern look – with a completely silver outer casing. If you’re the kind of person who likes to stand out from the crowd and be noticed, this is definitely a bonus – everyone seems to have the bog standard blacka plasma these days.
Size
For a 42” plasma, the TH-42px60u is surprisingly thin at only 40.2 inches wide including its built-in speakers, and 27.8 inches in height. This makes for a remarkably sleek look and an easy fit into tight spaces.
Remote Control

Panasonic’s remote controls are praised for their user friendliness. The TH-42px60u is no exception. In fact it’s an improvement from earlier models, with bigger and easier-to-find buttons – you can quite easily change the channel without looking at the handset.
Speakers
The two speakers on the Panasonic TH-42px60u provide 20 Watts of power all together, which is more than enough for home viewing. The average customer is more than happy with the sound quality, but if you’re a home theatre geek and want to hear the air flowing around you and voices from behind you, then you may want to use your own surround sound speakers. Despite having a Virtual Surround option in the TH-42px60u, there’s only so much sound two speakers at the front of the room can surround you with.

The Final Verdict?

October 30th, 2009 Robert No comments

For its time in 2006, the Panasonic TH 42px60u 42 Plasma HDTV was hands down the best plasma at a good price. Today the picture quality is still as good as any average consumer could ask for! Sure, the newer models of today have enhanced quality, but only to an extent noticeable to the eyes of an expert, or if you have the habit of watching TV at arms-length.

The biggest selling point of the TH-42px60u is that it offers great picture quality at an amazing price! This model wont be selling for much longer though, so Click Here to visit Amazon to see if there are any left.
