Video LG 42LB5610 Questions

Looking for 40/42" LED TV - Non-smart, no 3D. Budget 40-50K

1. Review about LG 42LB5610 esp PQ. I have zeroed on it looking towards IPS panel, LG's trustworthiness and budget.

2. Does LG 42LB5610 have HDMI ARC ? Mentioned HDMI ver 1.4 on LG website. Does not mention whether ARC or not. I want to play movies through USB port of TV and get 5.1 surround sound in Yamaha YHT 196 via HDMI ARC.

3. If 2 is not possible, LG 42LB5610 has a optical out port. Whether TV support 5.1 passthrough optical out to in of YHT 196?

If 2 & 3 both are possible, which is preferable?

I have asked these questions to LG support before 48+hrs but they are yet to reply. [Too technical for them? :p]

Thanks...
 
I had very much same requirements and I have same HT too. I have purchased 5820 yesterday from Flipkart. Its Smart model of 5610. But on Flipkart at present, 5610 is at 43,900 and 5820 is at 44,118. Hence for mere 300 bucks more you get better product. (Special price on 5820 will end at 12PM)

1. PQ of this and 5820 is same. You can go through this thread for some info.

For 2 & 3, I m planning to use Optical Cable.
 
Thank you for your reply.Unfortunately Flipkart delivery not available in my town. My purchase may be delayed by a month or so..
Checking out your thread. Also pls share your experience about 2, 3 with optical cable in your thread/here.
