    Excellent Set for Excellent Price!

    "I have been looking at HD sets for several years now, but money was always an issue, plus our old 32" Sony CRT was still working okay. It was my Xbox that finally drove us to HD.

Plus I knew that the Xbox was full..." Read Full Review »

    BEWARE! Ask yourself WHY you want a LCD

    "If you do not own a LCD HD TV and are planning to buy one think very carefully about what you expect out of your new TV's picture. If you have a VCR and lots of VHS tapes and you plan to look at them then be prepared for a MUCH LOWER QUALITY picture than on your old tube TV (it is i480 played on 1080p). Letters and numbers on the screen are unreadable, there are ghost outlines on all them. For example the zero..." Read Full Review »

    "The only disappointment with this TV is the sound quality. The speakers are located on the underneath side of the front panel - ie: they point downward. So if you have this TV sitting on a console, the sound is directed against a hard surface - and thus distorted and muffled.

    Why didn't they put …"  Read Full Review »
