    Best Monitor with component input?

    Hi,

    Im looking for a monitor/tv with a component input, so far all i can find is http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-M227WD-Mo.../ref=de_a_smtd

    Ideally would like something a bit cheaper?

    Any advice

    thanks in advance

    Re: Best Monitor with component input?

    I guess it depends on your definition of 'best'. Best value? Best quality?

    The 215TW from Samsung is quite old now, but high quality S-PVA panel, and I know for sure it has component input (as im sitting in front of it, formerly my primary monitor). May be able to pick one up used.

    My primary display is currrently the rather oddly styled 26LU5000 from LG, which is a Full HD 26" TV, which works great as a monitor over HDMI as well, and has component input. Most HDTV's work OK as monitors as long as they have a high resolution and arent too big, 32" is about the limit for desk use for 1080p in my opinion.


    Another option:

    Mostly they are going to be TV/Monitor hybrids, although the 215TW is an exception to that.

    Expensive PVA Type panel (PVA and IPS displays have better viewing angles and colour reproduction than the much more common TN panels)
