Take the award winning Panasonic TH42PX80 and add 1080p technology and you have perhaps what is the ultimate 42" plasma TV.

Equipped with all the very latest in plasma technology, the Panasonic TH42PZ85 is a symbol of just how far plasma TVs have come since the early days. Back then a contrast ratio of 30,000:1 would have seemed unthinkable; yet that's exactly what the TH42PZ85 has. When combined with the latest G11, 1080P screen, the results are truly stunning. Blacks are deeper than ever before and detail resolution is stunning. Reassuringly, although this is a Full 1080p Ready set, the TH42PZ85B doesn't neglect standard definition (SD) or 720p signals. Quality circuitry ensures that the Viera benefits are there, whatever the signal. All signals also benefit from 100Hz technology. 100Hz technology gives a more stable picture with less flicker and reduced motion blur. When all is said and done, we think you'll find the Panasonic TH42PZ85 produces one of the finest pictures you're likely to see from a 42" plasma.

In addition to offering a class-leading picture quality, the Panasonic TH-42PZ85B also offers an impressive sound quality. Although no match for a separate home cinema system, the V-Audio surround with BBE processing does offer a powerful, spacious sound quality.

Panasonic have also worked hard on the styling of their latest 1080p plasma TV. With a depth of just 79mm excluding the protruding portion, the TH-42PZ85B has a slimmer casing than previous Panasonic plasma TVs. The distinctive front lip and wedge-shaped stand also give it a character that's unique from other designs. For a taste of the future, look no further than the Panasonic TH-42PZ85.

To get the best from your plasma, we strongly suggest you professionally install your new purchase. All stores can recommend a local installer who should be able to help. Apart from the fact that our margins are minuscule, and we therefore can't afford to offer an at home service, sales assistants are neither trained, qualified nor insured to do installations. Having said that, we are happy to give advice in-store or over the phone where possible. For more info please contact your local store.
