Weaknesses: Relatively expensive, Media receiver fan noise, On screen TV guide not compatible with satellite
Summary: I purchased this HDTV after much research and have not been disappointed. The picture quality is excellent, with bright colors and deep blacks. This TV really stands out when viewing HD programs, as the clarity is outstanding. Even the clarity of SD programs is impressive, but you may have to sit further than eight feet away for the best picture. Viewing DVD's from a progressive scan player produces a picture that is almost equal to HD. I can't comment on the speaker performance, as my TV is connected to a home theater set up, but the fact they are detachable is a nice plus for those who won't be using them. This TV has a separate media receiver, which handles connections from other video/audio components, so you won't have a gaggle of cables coming out of the back of your TV. The cooling fans in the media receiver may be noticeable during low-volume scenes, and could be bothersome to those with sensitive ears. There are several different pre-defined picture settings that can be used depending on the type of program being watched. Or you can manually set all the options yourself (color, contrast, etc.) for your own personal preference. A nice feature is that you can set and save picture settings for different video inputs such as TV, DVD, VCR. Overall this is an outstanding HDTV. It costs a bit more than others in its class, but I have no regrets about my purchase.
