As with their projectors, this isn’t for those currently taking a hammering thanks to the recession. The 47in TV comes in at an astonishing £20,000. But for that you do get arguably the greatest TV money can buy.

Packing a contrast ratio in excess of 1,000,000:1, which they say is in effect infinite, you also get 16 bit processing, offering 65,536 shades of colour. Just to put that into perspective, your standard LCD offers 1,024.

Naturally, you’re looking at 1080p, an adjustable white point and Dolby HDR tech to boot. Unless you’re bankrolling a football club, or happen to turn out for one a weekly basis, it’s unlikely you’ll be getting one. But as a glimpse of the future, SIM2’s surely played a blinder.
