True, 37" LCDs are becoming hard to find...and their cost per inch is higher than 32" and 40-42" models.
In the latest issue of What hifi magazine, they have published a group test of 32" LCDs, with Sony being #1 (price mentioned as Rs.55K) and LG only a little behind (with price as 40K). Hence, LG seems to be much better value for money. But I was unable to find any of the model nos. reviewed there, and googling for those models threw all UK based sites. Means they have simply CCPed from the parent UK publication and converted the prices into rupees.
Anyway, although I was little bent towards sony initially, but found LG to be equally good in side by side comparisions (with LG displaying more natural skin tones while sony's was pinkish) and they all suffered same amount of motion jitter. And considering the huge price difference between the two, I opted for LG and am quite happy with the decision. Now I'm spending, whatever I saved, on buying good interconnects, wall-mountable audio rack etc.
