- busy momMy husband and I are so pleased with this purchase. Shipping was guick at the holidays, less than a week. Price fantastic, we researched for a long time. Picture and quality is great. In HD we were watching Pirates of the Carribean and it felt like I was on the boat, the picture was beautiful. No regrets. Easy to set up. Remote very user friendly. Basically plug and play, yet still don't know all of its capabilities.

- A keeper!Watching sports is awesome. And my cable box isn't even up to 1080p, it's only 1080i right now. So,the picture could be even better? Cool. The Non-HD channels are not super, but I think that's what happens with all TVs. I played a DVD that I've seen a million times and suddenly I was thinking, "What's that behind Indy? I've never noticed that before!" Cool.

- Not the best, but very nice.I've owned the set for 4 months now, so its enough time to review the set and be objective about it. Firstly, I think the Sony XBR series sets and the Pioneer Elite series have the better picture, but it comes at a large jump in price. At the time this set was purchased at Amazon.com, the price was $1299.00 and represented one of the lowest prices you could find; there are other places that were less expensive, but for the price difference of $100.00 or so, I'd rather spend my money on a sure thing that Amazon.com represents.
The picture is very clear and the adjustments to the picture quality are available, though the menu for set makes you jump thru several screens to get there; once there, the adjustments are easy enough to do. I found the set to be too bright when set at the default settings, so I turned the brightness down to 40.
The red touch of colour seems to make the set stand out; yet, that isn't what I complain about this set. The piano black bezel seems to attract dust like nothing I've ever seen, it is necessary for me to clean the bezel several times a week to keep it clean.
The standard speakers are something of a surprise; they sound a lot better than I thought that they would, so if you're not into surround sound or home theater, it ought to be good enough. I have the set hooked up to a Yamaha 5.1 receiver, with Polk frnt speakers, Klipsch center speakers and Onkyo rears with a B&W sub for watching certain movies; though most of time I use either the tv speakers or just the front Polk's to listen to.
The 120 Hz feature does make a difference in high action scenes, but even with normal movement it does sharpen the picture and is not a distraction, so I leave it on.
If you must have the best picture, then this is not the set for you; having said that, you will have to make a large jump in price in order to get a better picture. For the money spent, this set represents an excellent value and a good comprise between price, picture quality and ease of use.
