LG OLED 55'' query

Young Pretender

Hi - I'm very keen on either the B7 or C8 OLED TV.

My question is around Free Sat/Saorview capability.

Currently I have a FreeSat/Saorview combo box which is fed from a Satellite and aerial respectively. There's a HDMI connection from the box into the back of the current Samsung HD TV.

Unfortunately the combo box has died and rather than buy a new one I thought it was best to buy a new TV. 

With this in mind can I use the current aerial connection into the back of the LG OLED and can it be used for both FreeSat and Saorview?

thanks
Dave

Hi Yong Pretender.

The B7 range is now discontinued and was replaced by the 55B8S which is priced at £1299

The 55B8S has both a saorview and freesat tuners built in.

The 55C8PLA priced at £1699

Again this has both tuners built in.

Both also include our 6 year guarantees.

Let me know your thoughts.

Please take a moment to read the Charter for this forum, queries here are for Richersounds to answer, pitching in your opinion/advice in this way is not appropriate e.g.

As a general principle, if you're not asking Richersounds for a quote/information/involved in a deal here, it's usually best to proceed with caution. A more judicious approach to interventions and expressing opinions is needed here than would otherwise prevail in a general discussion area, such as the Home Entertainment Forums.

If you see a post which is looking for a quote or advice from RS, please resist the urge to offer your opinion. Such queries are not an open invitation for posters to make suggestions etc, these queries should be left to RS to answer. If queries or requests for quotes attracted everyone's opinion, the forum would be unworkable. This is not intended to prevent the usual chat and banter which you will regularly see on the RS forum.

If you have an opinion on some matter related to the items that Richersounds sells, or you wish to give people the benefit of your advice on some related issue, Please do not post it in this forum. There are other fora on Boards in the Tech section on Home Entertainment or TV related topics, or in the Consumer fora, which are suitable locations for endowing Boardies with the benefit of any advice or opinion you wish to offer. Bearing in mind the purpose of this forum, posts along the lines described here are not appropriate and will be suitably snipped or deleted without warning. This approach is taken to ensure the workability of this particular forum and to ensure that general advice and discursive posts are made in the appropriate forum. This is not intended to prevent the usual chat and banter which you will regularly see on the RS forum.

Accordingly I’ve snipped both posts above.


@eddie, if you want to raise a query with Richersounds, feel free to open a new thread, a quick read of the Charter will explain the standards for this forum. If you have any queries about the Charter, drop me a PM, but please do not post on this thread again, to avoid the thread being taken off-topic.

@ jonnygee,

I take it that your post was in response to the one preceding it in an effort to be helpful but this is misplaced, taking account of the Charter. Drop me a PM if necessary, but please do not post on this thread again, to avoide the thread being taken off-topic.

Thanks,

Ritz.
