Strengths: Easy set up and picture looks great right out of the box! A very attractively designed modern looking cabinet. Comes with all necessary cable to complete hookup to normal cable system.
Weaknesses: iLink outputs only work with JVC branded accessories.
Summary: I researched HDTV projection systems for a few months and settled on this tv. Price was definitely a factor but overall picture quality was important as well. This particular technology produces a very bright picture which was important when placing the tv in a room that is very well lit by sunlight. The Sony XBR series produces a picture very similar to this set but at a much higher price tag. I like the fact that lower quality signals are enhanced (dare I say "up-converted") which makes even regular broadcast channels look acceptable. DVD's look great and the HD picture is breathtaking. Looks like you could walk right into the screen.

The factory speakers in the TV are very loud and clear. I usually don't even use my surround for normal viewing. The center channel input also adds realism to the overall theatre experience.

Would definitly buy this tv again!

Strengths: HD is awesome. Even regular channels look good on this set.
Weaknesses: The fan makes a bit of noise but you get used to it
Summary: I am very happy with this set. I have had friends come over and want me to tune in their sets to look like this one. I can try but they have a different set than this and won't get that "look out of the window" appearance that you get with the JVC.

1 Star ReviewJVC HD-52G786 52" LCos Projection HDTV
Strengths: Tremendously clear picture when it is working.
Weaknesses: Durability. Bulb life. Ballast life. Everyhting internal inside the unit.
Summary: This television went out 3 weeks after I purchased it. I have now had this set for longer when I could not watch it, than when I could watch it. I have gotten the run-around from the customer service department at JVC, and now I am waiting on a part that will take 3 weeks to get installed in my set. From what I have been told the bulbs on these newer JVC units are going out VERY quickly. I WOULD NOT BUY THIS UNIT. I will never purchase a JVC product of any type again.
