May 14, 2008 Tom Bauer     Started out as a fantastic unit with bright sharp image but then things went dow...

My Experience: I have had this TV for 2 years now. No problems (bulb still good...set comes right up and on). I bought a Cox Cable box and now run full HD programming...the picture is fantastic for 720i. I have seen 1080 LCD flat screens and found the picture crispy and not natural. Mine seems warm. This HDTV comes to life with a HD cable box and I love sitting and watching ESPN in HD, and many other HD programs. For better audio, I use a Carver, Bose set up. I paid $800 on sale at Circuit City with a coupon and close out deal.

Problems: Nothing significant. It needs speaker jacks (not just audio out). The tiny speakers in the set are crap. VERY slow channel-to-channel surfing if your not using a cable box. Two HDMI inputs don't cut it (needs two more). There is no good way to use it as a computer monitor (needs digital input).
