Toshiba 32ZP18Q Widescreen CRT TV

Recommended Posts

It's time to get a flatscreen in my life so the trusty Tosh has to go. This is a 32" widescreen flat face 'picture frame' TV and it's in very good condition. It served as the centre piece of my home cinema setup for a few years and delivers superb performance. Below is a picture and a spec list but among other things it has a built in Dolby Digital decoder, digital audio inputs, component video inputs, a built in sub and external front and rear speakers (never used) in addition to the set's built in speakers. This means that it comes with everything you need for full on 5.1 sound (bar the leads) and puts in an impressive audio performance. I never buy blind and spent a few months searching for the best possible TV for our budget at the time, and the Tosh won praise from ever magazine I read. It's impressed from day one and still does.

It's a big TV, weighing around 55kgs, so you'd have to come and collect it (Central London), ideally with some strong friends as I'm on the third floor and there's no lift :( £200 will secure this fine example of CRT technology - not really open to offers as have seen them go for a little over that on the 'Bay and if I stuck a tenner on the asking price you'd only want to haggle it off anyway, so a nice round sum it is :)

Hi Seb,

 

Might be interested, I guess it does come with the stand too?

When you say 'very good condition' is it scrape and scratch free ( only ask as peoples ideas of condition can vary;) )

 

You got a couple of pics of the actual TV?

And finally where in London, I'm in Herts so not too far away.

Any plans to follow a similar upgrade route Pete? I'm after a 36" CRT ;)

 

I've only had it a short while and although the temptation of HD is a strong one, I'm going to wait until 1080p, the broadcasters and the next gen HD-DVD or BlurRay settles out a little before I do.

These TVs are easily as good as most flat screens I've seen for now. :)

 

I still might not have the heart to sell this TV though as it's so damn good!

Hi Paul,

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, it does come with the stand, which has three shelves. It is scrape and scratch free, only wear I can see is a couple of tiny marks on the top edge of the power button where the silver has rubbed off a fraction, but that's about it. Tried to take a picture of them, but they were too small to show up. See below for some pics. As for location, I'm a few streets off Oxford street. Got a couple of guys on the PMs who got in before you but will keep you posted as to what's going on.

Excuse the mess! The wooden thing is part of a bookshelf that I bought so that my centre speaker had somewhere to go - obviously the speaker's not included and neither are my consoles and things! The second pic shows the TV's arse end - it's quite big. On its stand, the TV is 39"/99cm high, 29"/74cm wide and 22"/53cm deep.
