- It did take a while to recieve this TV and it was difficult to track, but it came as promised and not a minute sooner.
The TV is great. Beautiful picture, quick and easy to set up...and I'm a girl. I just needed help lifting it to the TV stand I am using for it. I loved that I didn't have to haul it from the store. It was delivered directly to the room where I set it up...and the shipping and tax were free. Great deal...better than I could find anywhere locally.
I've played video games with the video game setting and they are terrific on this set. I haven't watched a DVD or hooked up my computer to it yet, but I will as this set is ready for it all.
I live in the Dallas/Ft Worth area and just use cheap HD rabit ears to recieve HD programming over the air. It is spectacular! It even has an information button that gives a title and synopsis of the current program...over the air! I can't stand to watch analog tv in my bedroom or at my parents any more.
- I bought this TV about 3 months ago. I waited to write a review after putting it through a fairly extensive test period.
This TV is nothing less than outstanding. The picture is gorgeous. The set looks humongous since it replaced a 26 inch LCD. It is a little heavier than I'd prefer, but having a swivel base surely helps. The default picture setting is set to "sports", which has a very bright and unnatural color scheme. After playing with the regular setting choices, I found the "document" setting to be the best for my eyes. This set has many input choices, and I like the fact that it has a set of AV inputs on the side. This is very useful if you mount the TV to a wall, or it's hard to get to the back for any reason.
Hooked up to my standard cable connection, it picks up all the unscrambled digital channels. This means I am able to watch my local broadcast channels in their full HD glory!
Our XBox 360 is connected through HDMI, and games as well as movies are truly breathtaking. Because of the size of this TV, I came to realize that not all DVDs are made equal. The difference between poor quality DVDs and the "near HD" quality ones is suddenly quite obvious. I'm still going to wait to get a blueray (or whatever the next HD standard) disk player when they cost less than $100. Until then, I'll be very discriminating when purchasing DVDs.
I like the power saving feature in this TV, even though some reviewers find it annoying. It causes the TV to take a few seconds before it powers up. This delay also allows for the other AV components to turn on and get ready for the party. ;-)
If I have to pick something to complain about it would be the remote. Sure it has all the functions, etc, but it performs poorly. I find myself having to press a button several times to get it to register. Perhaps it's a problem with the batteries. Nevertheless, I am using a Harmony 880 remote instead, and it works fantastic. No problem.
I hope this TV is good for many years of moderate use. Time will tell. For now, I am a very happy camper (now bordering into couch potato territory).
- I purchased this TV in June of 2007 and was absolutely happy with my purchase until about 9 months later when the panel went bad. A dark line showed up on the right side of the screen. While it was still watchable, it ws definitely annoying, and since I was still in my warranty period I took it to the shop to have it replaced. They took care of everything and even though it took a month for the new panel to be shipped (these are large, fragile items and have to be shipped through a ground freight company, so no matter which manufacturer and repair shop you are dealing with this is a fact of life), everything went well and I am satisfied with the repair.
One thing you have to keep in mind about the panel on your LCD TV is that there only a couple of companies in the world that manufacture all of the panels for the TV's. So if you get a bad panel, it isn't necessarily Toshiba's fault. They buy the panel, then build their brand of TV around it. If your panel has a defect, you were just unlucky and shouldn't give the manufacturer a bad review unless they handled the service poorly (which some people here have with Toshiba).
- I purchased this TV along with a HD-DVD player in May 2007 and I thought it was a pretty good TV after doing extensive research and looking at the picture quality.
The worst case scenaio just happened this weekend during the football game- the LCD panel went bad a little more than 3 months outside of the warranty. After talking to Toshiba, I had an authorized tech out to check it. He voltmetered one connector on the main panel and said the board on the LCD is bad but they don't make that part so you have to replace the whole panel. The panel is not cost effective to replace since a brand new set will cost just as much. Toshiba would not offer any financial assistance whatsoever after speaking to a supervisor. They said the set is too old.
Bottom line- if you are going to buy this TV get an extended warranty. A TV this expensive should last more than 16 months. The TV and the defunct HD-DVD player were a total bust. AVOID TOSHIBA!
- I bought this television 4 months ago at circuit city as an open box item for $700. It was an amazing deal, though I cracked the thing last night moving it through the house. Even though I had a three year warranty on it, CC won't cover the crack. It was great while it lasted... Very sharp picture with the ps3 hooked up and incredible color and brightness. I'm going to miss it a lot. Definitely recommend it, but always shop around for the best deal. Do your research and you might just find as good a deal as I did! And make for damn sure that your warranty covers accidental damage!

- We have only had this tv for a week and already love it !! We have been looking around for a bigger and better tv for awhile now. This one has features unavailble on some other the other brands and was comparable in price.

- Sylvania LC320SS9 32-Inch LCD HDTV
My home office TV went on the fritz and I needed a video fix but quick. (I live in my mancave!) that said, I'm still cheap enough to do a litttle research before hitting the store or clicking on "BUY PRODUCT".
I should state up front that I am not an audio/videophile, but I am a musician who knows a bit about electronics and a designer so I know "what looks good", (in general). I hit the Sears store and walked up and down looking at the sony and other name brands I'd seen with good ratings on line. then I see this Sylvania, that cost a couple hundred less than these name brands with a picture that matches or surpasses them. I DO suggest you go to the store because the pictures really were of different quality on different sets.
anyway, after checking to make sure this set had all the hook-ups I'd need, (it has more; HD, VGA, gaming ports, etc.)I took a chance and bought it. I only had so much room, and despite wondering if a 32 inch would have a weird looking picture, I am pleased to announce the picture is just great. I unboxed it, set it on my desk and it scanned my cable channels in about two minutes and I've been viewing in bliss ever since. I've played computer games on it and it works wonderfully for that too. the sound is obviously not as good as my stereo, but it's fine for me or any family living room set.
I truly thing this TV is a good deal. And although I'm skeptical of TV's made by other companies and sold under a different name, (this Tv is made by Funai), I'd buy this set again in a minute. I'vew been reading comments about the difference betwwen 780i and 1080I. Although this TV accepts 1080i, apparently that doesn't mean it will display that. But that is meaningless to a non videophile like myself. the picture is ten times better than my 1999 trinitron and not too different from the 52" HD picture on the set we have downstairs new sony. While an expert can pick my review apart, I'm sure, if you want a good tv picture at a good price, this is a good choice.
- I had been in the market for a new TV for roughly 6 months. I only had one on loan from someone and my time was close to running up. Luckily there happened to be a sale on HDTVs by sylvania at Kmart. So I picked one up and set it up. The picture is great, and it even has energy saving features[HOORAY!]. It has a great amount of outputs, 2 HDMI, VGA, 3 Video/Audio, S-Video and co-ax. It even has a 3.5mm jack so you can plug your computers audio in with the VGA. All in all its been going good for the last month.
