EXECELLENT LCD !!!

I purchased this because consumer reports rated it a " Best Buy" Saying it had picture that rivaled many more expensive models. This model beat out Sony, LG, Samsung, Sharp and other big brands in its category.

Reviewers even said the picture quality rivaled LCD's costing over $2,000.

I already have a Toshiba and a sharp Aquos. I love my aquos so much and didnt think picture could get much better on an LCD.......well I was wrong. This Regza blew it out of the water. The Blu-rays look stunning.

I wish more channels broadcast in full 1080p. Most HD channels broadcast in 720p which is a rip off by the industry and short changes us who invest on great LCD's for optimal viewing.

I love playing Nintendo WII, Playstation and X-box on this...the 120hz technology keeps blazing fast picture crystal clear and not blurred as you would see with regular 60hz sets.

I just watched the movie 300 on blu-ray on this set to see how good the effects could be and I was Blown away.

I couldnt be happier and out of my 3 LCD TV's this is my number 1.
My second Regza

Reviewer: jalmquist,
I did a lot of research before purchasing my first LCD television. I decided on the Regza, and was very please with the picture quality. I haven't seen any other LCD that surpasses the picture quality, but MANY that fall far short of the quality of the Regza. Given my level of satisfaction with my first Regza, I purchased another larger set for the new home. Again, very satisfied with the picture quality.

I only have one complaint. The right speaker vibrates to certain tones. Strangely, it seems to be tied to a certain level or quality of recording, because it's not always vibrating. But, let's say I'm watching a program on the Discovery channel. For the entire program, the speaker will frequently vibrate. Then, I'll watch a baseball game on ESPN and will not hear a vibration through the entire game. Anyway...I've got external audio system hooked up, so when I REALLY want the quality I can just mute the TV and turn on the receiver.

This problem is probably a one-off, so I will not let it affect the overral rating here. I just don't want to deal with the hassles of returning the darn thing and waiting for ages to get the new one.

That said, I highly recommend the Toshiba Regza!

Great HDTV for the money

I purchased the Toshiba HDTV after reading reviews in Amazon and Consumer Reports and checking the price. Consumer Reports rates the TV as a best buy. It is one of the least expensive televisions that Consumer Reports rates highly.

Amazon delivered the television ahead of schedule. The shipping agent called ahead to schedule a day/ time for delivery. Very easy to set up. Picture quality is excellent.
Excellent TV and Shipping

The TV performs equal to or better than the comments noted in other 5 star ratings. We have used the set with both Dish and DirecTV over the past few months and are impressed with the picture clarity in all formats from 480i to 1080i. We have not yet used it in the 1080p format.

Setup was easy since it was a replacement for a 32 inch Toshiba set. Amazon scheduled shipment originally for after Christmas, but the set became available much earlier and was received in early December. White Glove delivery was made exactly as scheduled, the set was installed, the deliverer made sure it was operating to our satisfaction, he gathered the boxes, cleaned up, and was attentive to our requests throughout.

We did learn in the setup process that the HDMI cable used on our 32 inch, 60hz set was inadequate for the 120hz set. Upon replacement with a category 2 cable, picture quality became flawless. Picture quality to the edge of the screen is uniform and there are no errant pixels anywhere on the screen.
Best TV I've Ever Owned

Reviewer: Robert B. Hirsch,
First, the shipping from Amazon was first rate. The delivery driver insisted that we open the box to insure that there was no damage. Set-up was a breeze. The TV is not too heavy, the instructions were clear, and the on-screen menu was easy to follow.

I have read several comments complaining about degraded picture if viewed from an angle and poor sound. I did not experience either with this TV. I viewed the screen from every angle, accept from the ceiling, and did not notice any change. Sound is crisp and clear with no annoying sound that others complained about.

My biggest concern was possible reflection during the day since the TV would be in a brightly lit room with south facing windows and a glass door facing the screen. I was pleased to not see any of these reflected in the picture.

I did my research before buying and believe I purchased a quality product at a terrific price.
Finally!

Reviewer: R. J. Shedd,
Started my research before Black Friday, hoping to snag a deal on which ever TV that I decided on. Little did I know that comparing HDTV's is much like comparing the old apples and oranges. Reviews are usually mixed, for even the highest priced models. I needed a matte screen, as the TV sits next to a huge picture window (which meant a plasma wouldn't work)and I wanted a headphone jack for my wireless headphones (excellent sound and I can watch my action movies without bothering my wife). I also wanted a brand that I had luck with in the past. Well, I didn't make a decision in time to take advantage of either Thanksgiving or Christmas deals. When I saw Amazon had the bundle deal that included the Blu-ray player for the Regza, which was on my short list, I pulled the trigger...finally!

It arrived today. Kind of an ordeal, as I attempted to schedule both the TV delivery and the cable people to switch me to DVR/HD box. I wanted the TV here first so the cable guy could hook it up. It took lots of phone calls but it worked out. CEVA delivered...but almost didn't. I was outside when he drove down my dead end road, backed into my driveway, then drove away as I ran after the truck yelling and waving my arms like an idiot. Did I mention that I have a heart condition and really didn't need to run the 440 in 20 degree weather? Anyway, caught the guy and still don't understand how he missed the house (he had GPS and I have huge address numbers on the house). At the drivers recommendation, we did not turn on the TV to check it out because of the cold. I let it sit a couple hours. This was quite the gamble because the TV arrived with two big taped over holes toward the bottom of the box, almost as if a small fork lift stabbed it. All is well that ends well...no damage to TV. The picture is amazing and I don't know what all the complaints were in the reviews...sound is fine, no buzzing, ghosting or any other issues that people mentioned. I did follow calibration settings from a website and I like them, except I notice flesh tones are a touch too yellow. Will work on that tomorrow.

If you have made looking for an HDTV a second career...just stop it and buy this TV. I know it's early, only having it on for five hours so far, but I have a really good feeling about it. I will update if I find any "surprises".
excellent picture

We bought this TV based on a review in Consumer Reports. The picture is outstanding and we really like the automatic settings for different viewing. You can set the picture for viewing sports, movies, cable channels, etc. and the picture adjusts for each of these. The cinema mode makes any movie look like you are watching it in the theater. We could not be more pleased with this product. The speakers are adequate, but like all flat screen TVs, if you want an incredible movie theater experience, you will need to purchase a separate sound system or connect to your stereo.
Great TV, one of the best under $1,000

I've got no gripes with this TV apart from the sound not being fantastic and it not having more than 3 HDMI inputs.

Don't let that keep you from buying this great TV. The TV speakers suite me just fine, but I turn on the sound system when watching blurays. I use this with an Xbox360, PS3, and my computer - all via HDMI cables. Make sure you get the best HDMI cable you can ([...]), I think 1.3a Cat2 is the latest. You can get find one for under $10, so don't buy one from a store.

I was really impressed with how crisp the screen is when plugged into my computer. Like I said, I use HDMI for all my inputs, and the picture just looks fantastic. However, I wish there were 4-5 HDMI inputs for future expansion, some of you may already need more if you have digital cable.

This TV is money well spent. Though I can't account for the durability of this TV as I just purchased it, I can say it seems very well built and I don't expect to have any problems with it.
Great TV!

This TV has a great picture and is very easy to use. It got a great review from Consumer Reports and has lived up to the hype.
VERY NICE HDTV

I purchased this from Buydig, great deal at about $790.
This TV is very light for the size, has a nice case design, great picture
and sound, lots of useful connectors in the back including 3 HDMI, one PC
input (the PC works great). The remote is simple but practical.
DVDs look sharp with my upscaling Teac system using the HDMI connection.
I decided for this model because it looked great in the store compared to the Samsungs,
LGs and other brands and because it is a BEST BUY according to Consumer Reports magazine.
I still have to try it with Netflix when I get my Roku box.
