Zenith C32V37 32-Inch HDTV Integrated TV
What a shame
First, I really like this set for features, price, and wow! what a picture.  It's everything I was looking for in terms of a great-for-now, great-for-the-future set.  But I too got the ZAPPING-problem, just like the other reiviewer wrote about.<br />Basically, the problem is limited to an audio &quot;popping&quot; noise that seems like a static-electric spike or something.  This happens with both the TV speakers and when it's hooked into a home theater with the TV speakers turned off.  The TV is plugged into the two hundred dollar Monster power &quot;conditioner&quot; which itself is grounded, so I am at a loss...<br />The guys I spoke with at Best Buy have never heard of this problem so maybe it's rare.  But the service person at Zenith didn't seem surprised when I decribed the problem (although, to be fair the guy I spoke with at Zenith mentioned he'd heard of this problem with a different set).<br />I decided to return this set and exchange it for a Sony model.  I made this decision with some regret.  While the price and picture are fantastic, I wasn't sold on the quality of the manufacturing.  Considering the cost, all I want is to plug it in and forget about it.  But the electronics people who wanted to sell me an &quot;extended warranty&quot; succeeded in scaring me over how &quot;fragile&quot; HDTV components are.<br />I figure that if the componentry is as fragile as they say, and the set shows signs of not working right, and other people seem to have reported the same problem - then I am better off paying a few extra bucks for the Sony model.  Too bad!  I was happy with the set otherwise.
