You mean the more expensive sets, that would be worth repairing ;-)

I only buy the cheapest ones, and all 4 i have here now, of different  
brands and screen sizes, have the same board ;-)
One of them is faulty / no repair already so i have parts....


The more expensive TVs tend to have modules and smd / doublesided boards.  
I have found they are no more reliable than the cheap sets and i really  
don't need any of the fancy features they might offer (which i never know  
about anyway).
