Toshiba REGZA 42XV540U 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV Reviews
Very easy to install, menu clear. All that I expected. Outstanding picture with Directv HD option.
3. The delivery and installation was great too, these TVs come in very big boxes and with the delivery person's help I had the TV connected and working in about 10 minutes. As best I can tell, all the criteria above were met or exceeded. I can hardly wait until all TV programs go HD, since non-HD looks "fuzzy" in comparison.
1. This TV has one of the better viewing angles from the side (LCD TVs can distort as the viewer moves more to the side of the TV). 5. I picked this model Toshiba for the following reasons:. 42" is the maximum size I can fit on the TV stand. 2.
True HD programming is awesome, from football to movies to nature documentaries. 4. After owning this TV for about 3 weeks, I love it. Consumer reports rated this TV as one of the best 42" LCD TVs. sports) smoother then lower refresh rates. LCD TVs usually consume less power then Plasma TVs.
The 120hz should make rapid motion programs (e.g.
Amazon had it in stock for the right price, it was purchased and we are very satisfied with our choice. Item was selected based on Consumer Reports reviews. Toshiba REGZA 42XV540U 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV. Installation was easy and we look forward to years of enjoyment.
I've had the TV for several months and am still impressed every time I turn it on. The colors are great, bright without being too unrealistic. I can say that this TV is really incredible, especially when you consider the price. The sound is good enough. However, I am not sure if this is the TV's fault or the satellite receiver. Turning 120Hz (clearframe) off really makes you realize the difference. It also had to be 120Hz as I watch a lot of sport.
The only negative thing I've found so far is the time it takes the TV to readjust after changing channels (using an HD satellite box.it takes a couple of seconds to change channels). I recommend turning the bass boost to medium to reduce some occasional distortion. I needed a flatscreen to go above my fireplace in a fairly sunny room. Although it has a glossy frame, its thin, so isn't too distracting. I read "techie" reviews at AVSforum and was impressed. The IR passthrough feature is great - I have the TV above the fireplace, and the A/V components off to the side out of view. Hockey seems to benefit the most from 120Hz with the fast player movement, fast camera panning, and tiny puck.
Strike two, and the big one. As much as I love this TV, that did it for me, it's going back.now if you have a regualar receiver, you should be fine, and you will love this television, but in my case, I have to take the one star off cause it did not meet my standards. My Samsung home theatre in a box system ht-x75, long story short, the system didn't pass through, and the TV would not recognize my blue ray player when I hooked it through the Audio system. First, the samsung LCD TV, anyone that goes to HH Gregg, Fry's or Best Buy and see's the 120 Hz picture on a samsung realizes that the picture doesn't look like a movie, it looks like a documentary or re-enactment of the movie (incredible) the Toshiba's picture is incredible, fluid, smooth, real color.but not that samsung picture, upsetting but I can live with it, the picture is really amazing. Okay, this would easily be a five star review if not for two things, but related to Samsung.
