Oh Man!
I love this TV. I recieved it as a Christmas gift and it is awesome. I don't have any problems with the sound as I have the sound run through my stereo surround system (Harmon Kardon). The picture is outstanding and I do not have the wave effect that some people have been experiancing. I had to return my first one because of damage during shipping, but it was worth the wait. Everyone is amazed at the picture quality. The menu is user friendly, it auto programs very fast, and it has enough video hookups to allow you to attach just about anything you want to . My only gripe with it is that it is ridiculously heavy and long (please measure the depth of the shelf you want to place it on). Overall, this is a great buy for the price.

It dose the best it can.
I'm pleesed with this tv, because my previous down stairs unit had purple lines going accross it, and a very un sharp picture (I think you should know, it was a proscan.) But I'd like to clear something up, the sony trinitron wega still has a large, (but unseeable from a distance) amount of dot crawl. When I heard about this thing called a digital comb filter, I talked to a guy in sears and asked him if it was a joke like the simulated surround sound. He said no, but try as hard as you can, you cant get rid of dot crawl on an anolog tv without HDTV, and that the digital conb filter only helps to minize dot crawl. To be quite honest, I dont see any differance in the picture of this tv and my upstairs unit which is a sony but not a flat screen. So anyway, my advice to you is if you absolutly can't stand dot crawl get HDTV but if you just want the best anolog tv on the market today, get a trinitron waga.

So its not my hearing--
I love the flat screen Wega picture and have watched several dvds in the last few days. Excellent picture, but I was constantly adjusting the sound--up to hear quiet dialogue then down when music or other non-dialogue audio came on so as not to be deafened. After reading the reviewer from Sedona I can agree whole-heartedly and thank the person for helping me realize that it is probably the set's audio system and not my hearing. I have had two Sony Wegas and they are the same. Alas,it is not a perfect world.

i think you might get sea sick
i must say, the quality of the picture is awful. The picture wavers, like on the movie channals that you don't recive. The picture "wavers" about every 10 seconds, like a wave on the beach. It's so agrivating to watch TV on this thing. A must-not buy. terrible sound, too--i am not exagerating. On some shows, it almost sounds like your listening to the broadcasts from outer pace. The sound accually wavers. on some moments, it's almost decent, and at some, it's really bad. what a waste
