Samsung LN26A450
This TV is more than I had hoped for. First, it has more features than any other in its class, and I find them well organized. But here’s the important thing: the picture quality is fantastic. I don’t have high def - I’m a cable customer with a standard definition signal only. I had [...]

Samsung LN46A650
I replaced a 56-inch Toshiba DLP rear projection set with this 46-inch LCD model from Samsung. At first, I was a little hesitant to drop my screen size 10 inches, and was even MORE hesitant about mounting such a large TV on my living room wall. After a few weeks of research including [...]

Sony KDL-52W4100
Over all I LOVE this television. My ‘quirks’ later are minor compared to the overall excellence of this.
Picture is sharp, bright, and clear, even with sporting events. Sound is excellent, glare (I have two large windows in the room) is low compared to a glossy TV.
I have played one DVD and watched cable television [...]

Samsung LN52A750
In June ‘08, I purchased this TV from one of the “Best” nationwide electronic retail stores. I bought it on sale for $2649, which was a steal at the time when the MSRP was $3499. This TV was just one of the items that I purchased that day for my home theater (see my [...]

Sony BDP-S350
Revel in astounding HD clarity with the BDP-S350 Blu-ray Disc player. The most noticeable additions to this year’s model are the Ethernet port that lets you download firmware updates directly to the player, and — with one of those firmware updates — access web contetent encoded to Blu-ray discs via BD-Live, compatibility with the [...]

Panasonic Viera TC-37LZ85
I just received this set today, after weeks of web and in-store research. I had always thought that the Panasonic LCDs looked a bit better than the Sonys and Samsungs at the stores, and looked very much better off-axis (important in our room). Well, all I can say is they must not have [...]

Samsung LN32A450C
I’m very pleased with the TV, didn’t feel the need to mess up with the color settings or anything. There are different color settings pre-registered such as for “Cinema”, “Sport”, “game” etc.
Colors look perfect, and the black and white and B&W movies are just what they should do: just greyscale colors, doesn’t turn into [...]

Philips 52PFL7403D027
I just bought this tv and had it installed yesterday! I was unsure wheter my TV rack would hold it (it was build to hold a 42″), but it’s doing just fine! This TV actually feel almost as heavy as my 2007 42″, which I suppose is due to new materials used.
The instalation is [...]

Panasonic TH-42PZ85U
After viewing college bowl games last New Year’s Day on my sister’s big screen TV, I told my wife that we should get a high definition TV before the 2008 football season started. So, as August approached and preseason predictions proliferated, we began to look for a new high definition large screen TV.
To my [...]

Samsung LN52A550
Love it. It’s one of my best purchases this year. We moved from an older Sony WEGA and were deciding between this and the 46 inch, and between this and the Series 6 (120 hz).
We chose this over the Series 6 as we didn’t feel the added functionality (for us mostly the 120 hz [...]
