Review : SOYO SYTPT3227AB 32-Inch LCD HDTV :
Have had this TV for about 3 years now, and it was one of the best deals I’ve ever found. I did a lot of research, and this model had everything I needed (at the time) at an unbelievable price compared to other brands with the same specs. The picture quality if wonderful, especially the HD channels on my cable. Every time I’m in a store with HDTVs on display, none of them seem to compare to the great picture I get on my Soyo.

Review : Sharp LC32D47UT 32-Inch LCD HDTV, Black :
The picture quality is quite sharp and colors are brilliant on this TV.
The unit was easy to set-up upon arrival: just screw in some bolts to attach the stand to the TV. The stand seems to be sturdy.
This unit includes several different types of inputs, including: RCA, three HDMI, component, PC, coax. All of the inputs mean that it is easy to plug several different things into it and not have to keep unplugging to do something different. We currently have a Wii, upconverting DVD player, a computer, standard cable, and a Nintendo 64 plugged into it.

Review : Memorex MLT3221 32-Inch Widescreen LCD HDTV :
Refurbished TV. I received the set 5 days after I ordered so the shipping service was excellent. The warranty is only 30 days but the price was right and most electronic failures occur during the burn-in period so I am not too uncomfortable with short warranty. The TV has a broad selection of input and output connections including a headphone plug-in. The picture is clear and bright and audio volume and clarity are very good. I am using it as a bedroom TV with Dish Network. No problems with setup and the menu is pretty intuitive with extensive control selections. I have noted several reviewers have had problems coding their remote controls. My Dish Remote seems to work fine with the code 902. The supplied Remote is above average in features and the controls are laid out in a logical manner. There are dedicated buttons for the most used features so you don’t have to go to the menu for things like the sleep timer, Closed Caption or aspect ratio. I tried it with rabbit ears antenna and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the reception and the number of channels I could receive. I live about 30 miles north of Houston and the scan picked up 35 channels. About 25 channels were solid watchable signals. So far I would have to say I’m very pleased with my purchase.

Review : Philips 32PFL6704D/F7 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV :
If Philips paid more attention to the firmware on this TV, it would be a must buy. The extra picture enhancement features they offer on this TV are a big fat joke. Nearly every corrective or enhancing option causes skin tones to become red. The picture setup assistant lets you choose the picture much like the optometrist determines your prescription, but the end result is always horrible. You’re better off googling the optimal settings for picture quality. The only “extra” feature I use is the 120hz option, which makes movement seem very life-like.
