SUPER
I HAVE HAD THIS HDTV FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF NOW, I SEARCHED ALL THE ELECTRONIC STORES FOR WEEKS BEFORE I DECIDED ON THIS ONE. LET ME TELL YOU ,YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND A MORE CLEARER PICTURE IN A PLASMA TV. AS A MATTER OF FACT THE STORE I BOUGHT IT FROM, IT WAS SETTING RIGHT BESIDE A PLASMA SET AND I COULD NOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PICTURES. IT IS ALSO A BEAUTIFUL TV, IT REALLY MAKES A STATEMENT WHEN PEOPLE COME IN AND SEE IT FOR THE FIRST TIME. IF YOU WANT A WORRY FREE HD EXPERIENCE, AND ONE THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT AND ALSO NOT PAY THE PLASMA PRICES, ESPECIALLY FOR A 52 INCH WIDE SCREEN HD , LOOK NO FURTHER

THIS IS THE WAY TO GO!!!
If you are looking for an HD-Ready TV, let me say that i was blown away by this one! I'd been searching for an HDTV for almost a year and a half, and when I found this one, i knew the search was over! Not only was i looking for a TV that would be "top of the line" in its technology, ablilities/features (it even has a PC input for computer link-up!), and most importantly its picture an sound quality, i also wanted a TV that would compliment any modern-looking room or apartment with a great looking, modern design. When I got this TV it not only had everything i was looking for in its features and abilities, it was gloriously beautiful in every way! With its stunning picture and design, this HDTV truly brings the "television set" into the 21st century in a big way! This one comes stock with its own bragging rights! I would give this one 6 stars if I could. You can't go wrong with this one my friend, its absolutely amazing!
