RCA 27F530T 27" TruFlat TV
Absolutely breathtaking
True-to-life colors, an excellent sound system, and more features than you could ever want. Not to mention the easily navigatable on-screen menus (which are accessable via the remote control OR the onboard panel).<br /><br />The colors on this unit are simply amazing - very realistic, and come alive (especially on video games).<br /><br />The sound system is absolutely breathtaking. When I went to pick this TV up, I thought about purchasing a 5.1 Surround Sound system for my DVDs and games. I figured it could wait - I would let my TV break in first before adding any extremeties. Needless to say, I'm glad I didn't purchase the extra surround sound. This TV simply doesn't need it! The sound has a deep, rich sound that is equal in each frequency. The bass rings true, the trebles are nice and crisp, and the mids set in nicely without becoming muddy or harsh. This is the way a television should sound.<br /><br />The menus are very helpful; you can set sound, picture, timing, sleep timer, alarm clocks, favorite channels, and it even has an on-screen notepad! Not only that, but if you sometimes are in a hurry and misplace the remote control, you can access every option you need from the front panel on the set. I lost the remote for the previous TV I had, and let me tell you...it was frustrating! The remote could not be found anywhere in the house, no matter how hard we looked. An on-screen panel would have been nice, but unfortunately \\"Orion\\" doesn't offer such a luxury. The RCA 27F520T's remote is very ergonomic, fits in your hand nicely, and all of the buttons are positioned for optimum comfort. The only gripe I have is that the \\"OK\\" button should have been placed in the middle of the Channel/volume button diamond instead of to the side, but that's something I can live with.<br /><br />Did I mention this Televsion set has hookups coming out of every orfice it sports? Side jacks, rear jacks, and they're all in multiple pairs too. You can hook up 4 or 5 units to this thing without a cable box or a reciver - easy as pie. The inputs look really good too. Great picture from all outboard units, including DVD players and video game consoles. A very crisp picture no matter what you hook up or use! Simply Amazing!<br /><br />As far as the TV going bad, mine has not gone bad yet! We shall see, but I think this TV will last quite awhile. It seems indestructable and RCA is a reputable brand. It was simply the nicest priced set in the store!<br /><br />If you're looking for a good flat-screen TV, STOP HERE! This is what you are looking for, hands down. No other brand comes close.
