Apex GB55HD09W 55-Inch Projection Widescreen HDTV-Ready TV
ONE AWESOME SET
I purchased my Apex GB55HD09W 55\\" Projection Widescreen HDTV-Ready TV by APEX (...) I hooked it up to the regular cable conection from my Dish Network System and was blown away with the colors of the picture. Just plain awesome!!! I did find that in order to receive stereo I had to use the S-video output from the Dish Network Receiver to the S-video imput on the TV. But the already great picture got even better!! Next I hooked my my \\"Cheap\\" Apex 2600 DVD player and once I used the component hook-ups so as to enable the progresive scan of the DVD player the picture was again unbelievable!! For a Low cost HDTV receiver Lots of neat features and ease of opperation , this set is amazing.<BR>I know this review sound like I work for Apex, but I'm really impressed with this set and if you are looking for a very nice unit at a low cost I can't see how you could go wrong. Now, that I've said all of the above only time will tell if the unit keeps preforming well. ??? ...<br />Update!!! <BR>I did have one problem with this set. After it was on for about 30 min's the picture would go out and only the sound would stay on . I would use the remote and restart the the set and it would come back on but would lose the picture in about 30 minutes again. I found the problem to be with the ON button on the front of the set needs to be pressed in all the way in and my problem went away. This ON button will work if you just brush it but will lose its picture if not properly pushed to complete ON position.
