3.0 out of 5 stars Picture okay - Speaker Bad, December 23, 2007

I hooked this tuner up to a 15 inch lcd computer monitor. This monitor is used only as a television in the kitchen. I do not have any computer components hooked up to it. It came with the wires necessary to turn a computer monitor into a tv. The picture quality is average; not nearly as good as an lcd television. The speaker is completely unacceptable. It is so "tinny," it was intolerable. I didn't expect much, but the sound was almost painful. I ordered Logitech R-10 Speakers for $16.88 from Amazon. They make a huge difference. I would recommend buying a less expensive tuner w/o speakers and add speakers.

I bought this box as a gift to my parents, I plugged it to a ViewSonic Projector to use it as a TV, and it works perfect, the TV tuner has all the features that a TV should has, also you can configure the aspect radio and also the resolution.

Five stars for this little box. Indeed, I'm gonna buy another one for me.

First let me say that this is indeed a high quality product. It does exactly what it says it will do. I took it out of the box and hooked it up to my 17 in. dell lcd (4:3) and was watching tv 5 minutes later. There was nothing to program or set up it is just "plug and play" You might want to hook it up to external speakers though.
Standard definition tv looks fine although if you sit really close you can see a little bit of "snow" It is not because of this product though. People dont realize that lcd monitors have many more pixels than the cable signal delivers so the image has to be streched.
If you want better image quality you need to get HD cable.
However, if you sit more than a few feet back it looks perfect.
Comes with a nice remote too and every cable you will need.
