Philips 42PF9630A 42-Inch HD Integrated Flat Panel Plasma TV with Pixel Plus 2HD and Ambilight
Philips- Was great but now I worry
I think the Phillips plasma is wonderful. The picture is great. Regular non-HD pictures are horrible, that that is not the TV's fault. The HD picture is incredible. Enhanced by the Ambilight, this TV has the best picture of any HD Plasma. I reiterate that the Ambilight is incredible. Have your friends over at night and watch them drool! <br />I would NEVER buy a plasma without the Ambilight. It is that good.  <br /> <br />Criticisms: Sound: The sound is terrible, but what do you expect from factory installed speakers. Besides, if you spend $2500-$3000+ on a tv and do not get a home audio system you are a fool.  <br /> <br />Now reading another reviewer I am worried. My TV has the same thing where after watching the Plasma for a few hours, it just turns off by itself. It then will turn back on by itself. Once, during the first few days I owned the TV, I swore I turned it off at night, and the next morning it was on. This has disturbed me and now that another person had the same experience I am going to take my TV back and try to get another one.  <br />Overall, for $2500 I would grab it up ASAP! <br /> <br />
