A Look At The LG 42LH3000

By: Andrew Emerson


What's The LG 42LH3000 TV Like?

The LG 42LH3000 flat panel LCD provides a forty-two inch diagonal screen with a couple of differentiating features such as enhanced energy saving technology and a superior speaker system design. The HD ready LCD comes with a 1920 x 1080 progressive scan screen resolution.

The 42LH3000's image quality is on par with most other comparable models. Although most product reviews on the web are fairly positive on picture quality, the LG 42LH3000's dynamic contrast ratio and frame processing rate are nothing to boast about. At 50,000:1, the LCD's dynamic contrast ratio is below most plasma screens. Furthermore, this model's frequency stands at 50-Hz which is average at best especially when viewing action packed movie scenes. The LG 42LH3000, however, does possess additional functionality to enhance its existing picture signal. A control guide program allows the viewer to modify the picture quality to enhance the viewing experience.

The most unique aspect of this model is perhaps its speaker system. The strategic placement of the speakers inside the front bezel increases the sweet spot by producing a fuller and larger sound bubble. This uniquely uniform speaker placement, referred to as the 'Invisible Speaker System' in the LG marketing specifications, has been finely tuned by Mark Levinson.

The consumer can further enhance their listening pleasure by selecting from one of the five sound settings: Standard, Music, Cinema, Game, and Sport. Another enhancement available on the LG 42LH3000 is the 'Clear Voice 2 ' technology. This technology allows for voices to be amplified while reducing the ambient noise. This can be beneficial when watching movies that contain lots of background blare. The LCD has 20W audio out ports for installing a surround sound system and Dolby digital capability.

The 42LH3000 panel sports a couple of Scart sockets for connecting to components other than high definition, such as DVD players. For high definition connections, there are three HDMI ports. The LCD also possesses a PC interface for computers.

The other unique feature in the LG 42LH3000 is its energy saving technology. The model's specifications describe three specific aspects that are standouts. For the multi-tasking viewer, there is a standby mode which utilises zero electricity. For music listening, there is a screen off function which sustains speaker sound. The third feature is an Intelligent Sensor which accounts for background light in order to determine the level of brightness to emit from the LCD screen. These features combine to make the LH3000 one of the most energy efficient LCD flat screens in the market.

One relatively universal feature that is lacking in the LG 42LH3000 is the picture in picture (PIP) functionality. Additionally, in place of a Freesat tuner, is the Freeview feature which relays land based digital signal to the LCD screen versus satellite based transmissions.

The black panel LG 42LH3000 weighs slightly more than 17 kilograms with a stand that swivels and a 178 degree viewing angle. Interestingly, one key feature lacking in the model is Picture-in-Picture capability. The price range for the LG 42LH3000 is from 499 British pounds to slightly under 700 British pounds, depending on the retailer.
