Philips 60PP9202 Epic 60" HDTV-Ready TV
Wonderful TV... Great Price...
Recently i had been looking into buying a Big Screen TV over 50\\" to replace my standard 32\\" crt in the living room. So the first decission to make was obviously widescreen or standard. I had settle my mind on a 55\\" mitsubishi widescreen and i had ordered it and everything. As i went and picked up my freezer from Sams Club i saw this monster sitting there at such a low price. So i run home and do a bunch of looking around in forums and reviews and came to the conclusion that i am canceling the order at best buy. Why? Because this TV is 60\\"... it will give around a 55\\" widescreen picture. So why pay more for less a TV. This one not only shows the picture the mitsu would but also shows more on standard movies and even more important cable television. It doesn't have a dvi input but i am using a radeon 9600 for the dvi out and i got a dvi>component converter so i can still do the 1080i with my card. It only has one component in also. but i am purchasing a reciever that will do the switching for me and i only need one input. So not only is the tv huge. its practical, its cheap, and what a wonderful all around look. The only thing i have beef with on this tv is that is has no real way to grab it and move it. Getting it up a stoop and through a door was a tough job so if you buy have them deliever it and bring it in for you. The back gaurd on it isn't very stable so its not a good thing to grab on. Weighs i would say around 200 pounds so you if moving yourself will need something more then the average house wife to help you with it. Other then the moving of it i have nothing bad to say. LOVE IT 4.5/5 Got mine at sams club for 1299. And for another 199 i got a 3 year service plan on it. Not only cheaper then best buy but cheaper then the manufactures warrenty... AND it goes into effect AFTER the manufactures warranty ends. Sorry for any bad grammar or spelling =( <br />
