Sony's new top of the line HDTV, the 55-inch KDL-55W900A, features the appetizingly named TRILUMINOS display technology, which creates a lumi-liciously rich colorful picture.

HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Mar 31, 2013 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $459  
A hands-on video review of the Sony KDL-40R450 that is a companion piece to the written review. Length - 5:44.
Sony KDL-40R450A
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Mar 26, 2013 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $459  
The Sony KDL-40R450 is a bit of a throwback to simpler times when TVs were just TVs. You remember, way back in about 2009, before TVs became "Smart" with connections to the Internet and a store full of apps crowding the screen.
Samsung PN51E6500EF
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Feb 21, 2013 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $1,248  
The Samsung PN51E6500 TV has renewed my faith in plasma displays. This 3D Smart TV is feature laden while being a breeze to use. And the picture quality of the plasma is rich, smooth and easy on the eyes.
SunBriteTV SB-4660HD
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Jan 5, 2013 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $2,795  
The tearsheet for SunBriteTV's Signature Series 4660HD gets right to the selling point when it describes this 1080p HDTV as a True Outdoor All-Weather LCD Television for permanent outdoor installation.
Samsung PN60E8000GF
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Dec 20, 2012 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $2,199  
The 8000 series is the top of Samsung's line of 2012 plasma HDTVs, which means that every feature in Samsung's arsenal is packed into the PN60E8000 3D Smart TV. Of course, there may be one or two too many features stuffed in to this high-end TV. But you never need to fiddle with many of these features and still enjoy this plasma's luscious picture quality.
LG 84LM9600
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Dec 12, 2012 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $16,999  
The picture quality of the LG 84LM9600 Ultra HD TV is definitely a major step up from the output of a high-end 1080p HDTV. The difference can be startling when playing 4K content. But even when comparing playback of Blu-rays, the LG's upscaling to 4K is noticeably better.
Sony KDL-46HX750
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Nov 26, 2012 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $1,599  
The Sony KDL-46HX750 is a gem of a TV with great picture quality. Would I prefer the incremental video performance boosts of the HX850 or HX950? You betcha! But the accountant in me would be proud of my money saving decision to go with the HX750.
VIZIO M3D550KDE
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Nov 6, 2012 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $999  
The picture quality from this Edge-lit LED LCD VIZIO M3D550KDE may not be the very best that I've seen, but it's very good. And those higher performing TVs often cost twice as much. Depending upon the size of your pocketbook, the difference may not be worth it.
JVC JLC47BC3000
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Sep 22, 2011 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $650  
The JVC BlackCrystal JLC47BC3000 HDTV is a great choice for those who simply want an easy-to-use TV that they can plop down and enjoy their favorite programs without having to fuss with networking or apps or 3D glasses - just like the good ol' days back in 2008.
LG 47LW5600
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Jun 30, 2011 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $1,000  
With the LW5600 series, the LG designers have succeeded in offering a wide range of features for the tech savvy crowd while keeping the basic setup and operation of the TV simple enough for the "just the facts, ma'am" generation. And, oh by the way, the edge-lit LED LW5600 produces some of the best 3D Picture Quality (PQ) that I have encountered. Add to that, LG's 3D technology uses the less expensive and less intrusive passive 3D glasses.
Toshiba 55WX800U
3D HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Dec 15, 2010 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $2,199  
The 240Hz LED edge-lit Toshiba 55WX800U's picture quality when displaying 2D images is excellent. And its NetTV menu of Internet streaming partners is top notch. If only its 3D performance was as compelling.
Haier HL40XSL2
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Aug 6, 2010 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $1,131  
The 120Hz, 1080p LED edge-lit Haier HL40XSL2 LCD TV produces a highly satisfactory picture in a slender 1.2" package. It doesn't offer network connectivity and the accompanying Internet content, but it does include a unique DVR-like Time Shift feature through the USB port.
Westinghouse LD-325
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Jul 21, 2010 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $450  
The LD-3255 does not have all the bells and whistles to serve as the centerpiece of your home theater, but its performance is good enough to fit into almost any other TV viewing spot in the house. And it's definitely light enough to tote there.
ViewSonic VT2300LED
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — May 21, 2010 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $399  
The LED edge-lit VT2300LED ratchets up the picture quality of ViewSonic's line of LCD TVs. The 23" 1080p HDTV is a great size for a dorm room or bedroom. And to wring even more value out of it, you can use it in your home office as a computer monitor/HDTV.
Toshiba 55UX600U
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — May 3, 2010 		Our Review
 		 Specs    $1,479  
Even though the 120Hz LED edge-lit Toshiba 55UX600 doesn't produce the deep blacks of its direct-lit local dimming cousins, it still delivers a big, bright 55" image that is made for events like Avatar or the World Cup. And its NET TV feature provides Wi-Fi capability and a wide range of Internet content partners.
Bang & Olufsen BeoVision 8-32
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Apr 2, 2008 		Our Review
 		 Specs    MSRP: $3,950  
The design of the BeoVision 8 is a study in counterpoint. Casual with elegant styling, it's a fun little TV with an all-kidding-aside home theater-like image and big sound.
Bang & Olufsen BeoVision 7-40
HDTV Review
Dick De Jong — Jun 13, 2007 		2007 Highly Rated
 		 Specs    MSRP: $13,250  
After reviewing a parade of look-alike HDTVs, we ached to find a stylish departure from the norm. The BeoVision 7-40 soothes that pain with a unmatched combination of design and performance.
