Panasonic CT-32HX41 32" HDTV-Ready TV
Awesome Baby !!
In looking for a 32' HDTV capable set that would fit into my family room entertainment center - I narrowed my choices to 32' HDTV 's by Samsung,Hitachi, and Panasonic. All looked good in the store but I decided to go with my gut as I thought the Panasonic looked about 25% cleaner in the in-store side by side look with the Hitachi. Plus the Hitachi was not a flat screen and therefore not quite worth the price at about[$$$]. <BR>In a side by side comparison with the Samsung, again I thought the Panasonic wasa bit nicer although at a [$$$]premium it was a tough choice. Plus the Samsung was not in stock at the particular electronics superstore I was at.<BR>Once the Panasonic was home I could not be more pleased. Hooked up with S-Video to my Dish Network. Colors on live feeds are awesome. Have not seen clarity and color like this<BR>before. Picture was not as sharp with cheap RCA cables. Cannot wait to hook up with SAT HDTV box.<BR>Connected a JVC progressive scan DVD and was very impressed with the clarity. The 16:9 aspect ratio is a bit small on a 32' but it is still awesome. Have my high end audio in the basement so I won't be experiencing the full audio experience with the Panasonic in the near future.<BR>Make sure you have a friend help to lift the set as it is VERY heavy. <BR>Sound is adequate and remote is good. It has a cute cartoon like setup that is easy to use. Overall a great television!
