Good LCD TV For the Price July 27, 2010

I purchased this 40" TV when Amazon offered the free TiVo Premiere TiVo TCD746320 Premiere DVR (Black) along with purchase. This is my first flat screen TV and it is a good starter for the price. I chose an LCD because it tends to be more economical than a plasma. Plasmas offer better color but tend to use more energy and are more costly. I wasn't looking to create a fantastic new home theater system; just something that will allow me to enjoy everyday TV and the occasional movie. The flat screen also opens up my small living room significantly. My previous tube TV was ginormous in comparison.
The delivery company, CEVA, came in within the time frame designated and helped set-up the TV on the swivel stand. They do not check to see if an image comes on the screen, even though they ask you to initial the line that states an image appeared on the TV. Whatever, I don't expect the delivery guys to be technicians. Just keep this in mind.
Fortunately, with some exchanging of wires, I was able to set up the TV and receive a signal and picture. I do not have cable, so I hooked the TV up to an antenna. The picture quality is great on the HD channels and sufficient on the non-HD ones. It really is a sleek and nice looking TV. Even when turned off, it's a nice piece of equipment.
I was concerned with the 60 Hz because I had read that the minimum an LCD TV should have is 120 Hz minimum. And while my friends and I are no LCD television experts, we really don't notice a difference between our TV's based on this refresh rate.
The sound quality is what's bringing the review to 4 stars. Even for my small space, the sound just wasn't good enough. You don't need expensive speakers, but it's definitely worth hooking it up to another audio output.
 I bought 2 of these July 19, 2010

Sleek tv with great picture quality July 13, 2010
M. Terrell (San Francisco CA USA)
I got a great deal on this through Amazon, and am very pleased with this tv compared to the only other LCD I've owned, a smaller (26in) BB store brand. The Samsung HDTV is one of the most attractive flatscreens I've seen, with a sleek look and a useful swivel based. It's the first tv I've ever owned where I don't feel the need to keep it hidden away in a cabinet, it looks so good. I didn't really notice the "touch of red" until I moved the tv to a brighter room (where I've had no problems with glare or light reflecting on the tv), and it's a subtle touch that makes the tv stand out from others. Picture quality has been great for watching cable and dvds. I don't game, so can't comment on that. While I haven't noticed the audio clipping from all sources that another reviewer mentioned, the sound is a bit tinny for music videos. However, I would imagine that someone really into music would want to hook this up to a sound bar at the least. I may look into one myself. Other than that, I am pleased and expect to enjoy the tv for many years to come. If I'd had more money, or hadn't gotten the great deal on this model, I might have upgraded to the 120 Hz, but so far the 60 Hz has worked fine for me.

Hmmm...let's begin here...Been looking fwd to getting a HD TV for over an year..read reviews...tons of them..and then some. I decided to wait until I get something really good- 1080p, multiple HDMI ports (v important for me), Large screen, good price and a good manufacturer. I have a surround system/multiple disc changer,- panasonic, 'old' vcr and cable--- I wanted something that would connect all these without having to spend a ton of $$$$.
THE GOOD: So having read a number of reviews of this system I went for it..and paid about [...]..unpacking..amazing..set up ..like 5 minutes..and connecting the S-VIDEO cable to link up the surround system/ 'old' vcr and cable---IT WORKED. I am still workin on buying HDMI linked stuff (its been like a month)...but waoo..This system is good. The TVs sound system is not that great but I have the surround system- so I dont need it.
The Other- Have to tweak the contrast, etc for sometime to get the TV to be to your taste. The TVs sound system is not great.
Overall- so far so good. Excellent product-5/5.
Success.
