I went into my local big box retailer with a 32" flat panel in mind (upgrading from a 27" CRT) and quickly realized that 42" is where it's at! After seeing this Sylvania in action and being incredibly impressed by the clarity and brightness, I went in search of the best price. I unexpectedly found it here at Amazon and bought. After having the TV for about two weeks now I'm very happy. Like I say the picture is great - no complaints - but I would like a more robust selection of inputs/outputs. This thing also looks great mounted - with just the thin frame oulining the screen.

I read all the reviews before I bought this TV, and they were very helpful. Thank you to all who wrote about it! This is why I am writing a review (hopefully this will help someone else make his or her decision) I bought this TV for my husband's birthday and he loved it. The sound system in the TV is terrible but knowing this ahead of time we put surround sound on the TV and it is great. I have to say that this TV is excellent for the money. I have recommended it to my friends and other family members.

I purchased this at a local store before finding it at Amazon. (I paid $100 more but no shipping cost) Very nice display. It is not as crisp as HD, but still looks great. I have Direct-tv with S-video hooked up and the bright scenes look fantastic, but dark scenes (blacks and greys) are not to good. (this is not an HD signal which would clean things up a lot) A DVD player with component hookup is much better.I wanted a large display without paying $2000 (typical ballpark price for an HD set the same size) and am very happy with the results. I do not see a difference worth paying the extra $600 for.This set weighs in at 100lbs so be sure you have a solid entertainment center or if you use the wall mount (an extra $150) it needs to contact something substantial. Also the speakers lack depth. They get the job done ok, but with a display like this a surround sound would be a good investment.Remember this is a display, not a set with a tuner. Not a problem with cable, satellite, or DVD players. This has an advantage if you have young children and a universal remote control. The kids cannot accidently change the tv channel and then require help to get back on track.
