This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton Subwooferi recently purchased this television and was astounded by the remarkable picture on hdtv. i simply hooked up a 20 dollar indoor antenna and picked up all the stations. i kept my 32 inch zenith console tv because it still has a lot of life in it. i looked at sony tvs but kept coming back to zenith. if you can find one consider purchasing a good old fashined crt television.keith ballard meridian ms
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferI've had this TV for a little over three years I think. It just died (it won't power on).
- I'm glad actually, it gives me an excuse to buy a flat screen of some sort with HDMI jacks.
- Worst thing about this TV was the remote. You couldn't jump to a particular input, you had to click through all of them. Even ones not-in-use.
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferPurchased this little Zenith for my dad since he was still looking for a TV with the Zenith name. LG makes the line now, but still the same great Zenith picture quality. Dad loves it, thinking about getting one for myself. Great connectivity, it has every input you'd ever want, computer, HDTV, composite, RGB, and over the air analog and digital tuner.
The auto shut-off after the input signal stops is a nice touch in case you get busy while a DVD is playing.
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferI've had this TV for over 7 years now. It's been a good TV, picture is now starting to blur in some areas. Compared to some of the newer (higher priced) HDTV's on the market this doesnt really compare. The picture quality is ok, but not crystal sharp. This is a large bulb rear projections, so it's quite deep. Two component inputs only, no HDMI.
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferThis is my first HDTV and I am very pleased with it. The picture quality is outstanding. Here are some of my comments, in no particular order....
First, as I write this (9/3/2008) Amazon's description of the item is incorrect. They list it as a 720p receiver. It is actually 1080i. Verified at Hitachi's web site, where you can download a PDF specification sheet, also the owner's manual states it is 1080i.
The owner's manual leaves a lot to be desired. Descriptions of some of the features ("E-Save" for example) are inadequately covered, or not at all.
There is only one S-Video input, and that is on the side of the set, not the back.
The component video inputs on the back will also accept composite video... a GOOD thing!
You can rename each input source from predefined choices, like PVR, DVD, etc. It would be nice to be able to create your own names (like "TiVo" for example).
Setup was very easy. I connected the set to cable, and the built-in tuner found all the analog and digital channels available, and quite a few that had no programming on them (requiring a few minutes of editing of the channel list). Nitpick: you cannot add channels to the channel list manually. You must let the set scan for channels, then mark the ones you want to skip over.
The set's tuner is NOT CableCARD equipped.
Overall, I would recommend this set highly. It has a lot of inputs, including 3 HDMI inputs, a great tuner, lots of features and amazing picture quality.
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferWe've had this Vizio Gallevia 47" Plasma TV for 16 months having bought it from a big box store (S's C). Its been great until 2 days ago when the screen just shut off. No warning. There's power to the TV as the logo is yellow but it won't respond. Vizio don't want to know because its out of its one year warranty and went very quiet and sheepish on the telephone. Lifetime technical support - not in reality! The local repair shop will "do his best" but "its hard to get parts". "no-one is offering support to these new brands", "that's the gamble you take" and finally "we'll do the best we can". So my review if are you going to buy this TV take the money you save from a more reliable brand and buy an extended warranty at the same time.

The picture is great, sound is decent and we love it! I would highly recommend this TV and the price cannot be beat (we purchased through 6Ave Electronics thru Amazon)
This review is from: Panasonic VIERA TC-L42U30 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, Ultrafast-Booting Blu-ray Disc Player, 2.1-Channel SoundBar Speaker System with Wireless Kelton SubwooferThough considered inferior to 1080 46" models, being only a 720, after viewing this gem's picture quality in a major department store I was sold. Now becoming harder to find I acted timely and am now enjoying HD programming in total satisfaction. Some standard channels will take a little adjusting, but the picture quality seems to be constantly improving day-after-day. And according to test results in recent iss...
