Loewe Art 37 TV is an expected touch of class

This is the Loewe Art. Joining its existing 32in, 40in and 46in brothers, the Art 37 features a 100Hz, edge-lit LED backlit panel as well as optical picture control and the ability to stream audio and video stored on your home network/USB device. Starting at a wallet-straining £1800 (plus £100 for the pictured mocha finish) and reaching £2200 for the optional DR+ hard drive model, it’s safe to say that Loewe’s luxurious stance on pricing has remained unchanged. Still, if you’re looking to sprinkle a bit of class in to your living room alcove then this may prove the perfect solution. See photo...
