Syntax Olevia LT32HV 32-Inch Widescreen HD-Ready LCD TV
Awesome performance
Just like everyone else, I was a little sceptical about the performance before buying this beauty ... especially after reading the CNET review of it.  It's been a month since I've been on this TV and I must say its one heck of a product.  I got cablevision HDTV service and have hooked up the HDTV receiver to this tv via DVI and the quality of picture is just outstanding.  The fact that it has a 8ms responce time is a huge plus.  Also, I caliberated my display using the THX mastered \\"The Village\\" DVD.  I suggest everyone should do this for best performance.  So, overall here it goes : <br /> <br />Picture Quality : ***** : Vivid natural colors, almost perfect black levels, no lag whatsoever.  Does excellent up-scaling. <br /> <br />Audio : **** : Well I have hooked up a external home theater system with this, so don't really use these speakers.  But the few days I did use it, was pretty good.  I do wish the speakers were detachable as I've wall mounted the unit ... it would have been lot less heavier that way. <br /> <br />Interfaces : **** : Now, here is the catch ... if you have a DVI output from your cable box and a DVI DVD player then you will have to manually switch the interfaces or use an S-Video or Component video for one of them.  A DVI switcher in the market is quite expensive (200 to 300).  So, I hope a future version of this comes with at least 2 DVI interfaces.  Also, the S-Video and Component video performance is quite exceptional.   <br /> <br />PC Connectivity : Have not yet tested this. But am guessing its going to be great. <br /> <br />The Remote : forget about it.  All my friends that have tried to use this remote have complained about it.  So, won't even bother reviewing it.  I've gotten used to it and have limited its use to power on/off. <br /> <br />All in all its worth the $1899 that I spent ... can't believe amazon is selling the same for 1599 in just under a month! so, go for it ... don't think twice unless you fancy spending almost the double for a Sharp :)
