Had my Panasonic 32LXD70 a few months now. Throughly satisfied with it. Outstanding Picture - Definition and Contrast just perfect. The 70 has "ordinary sound" - I beleive the 700 model has an enhanced Surround Sound, but the 70's sound is more than acceptable - and I put it through a Sony 1200 amp and KEF 2003.2 eggs. You can pick up the LXD70 for a very reasonable price these days. I would recommend this set to anyone without reservation.
