Review from Home Theater Magazine

Review from HomeTheaterMag.com: LG 42LG60

With its excellent video processing, fine color, great color adjustability, and good detail, the LG is poised for the LCD wars that rage in the aisles of video retailers. But it needs one additional weapon to prevail. Its blacks need to be deeper. Without that, this otherwise solid performer doesn't stand out from the crowd.

I paired this up with my Blue-Ray player and you will never go back. Totally different viewing experience that has to be seen to be believed. The 1080p / 50,00-1 contrast ratio is as good as it gets and compared to "other" brands with higher prices, this does the same exact thing for 400 to 600 dollars LESS. I did my research ;p. Now get this TV.

I was a little hesitant to buy this TV at first we were really comparing them to the Samsungs and I was surprised at how much more I like this TV. Samsung is a trusted brand in my home so that was the main reasoning. We got this TV at our local BestBuy it happened to be a display TV that they rotate every two months and sell the old one. You can buy the 4 year protection warranty through them and they fix it or replace it if need be. Which with that and our wall mount it came to about what you would pay to get it through Amazon. After getting it all mounted on the wall and watching my first complete Jazz game in HD I was not disapointed at all. The contrast ratio is amazing and it is just crystal clear. Unfortunately it couldn't make the Jazz play better but I enjoyed it thoroughly. Haven't played any video games on it yet but the plans are in motion to get a PS3 now that I have this. Can't beat it love the fact it has a lot of HDMI slots and one even to the side for easier plug in. My wife can't get over the power button which is kind of a cool little feature. I am taking a second look at LG products in the future. Hate their phones but LOVE THEIR TVs!!!!

03/09/10 Don't know if it is the VGA cables I bought or the TV but I have to unplug the HDMI to my cable box when I use this as monitor to watch movies online through my computer. For some reason it creates interference lines to go through my monitors and also some background noise. It does it when you have your DVR from your cable company or just the basic cable from an antenae plugged in. Kind of annoying but I just moved the Cable HDMI cable to the side one and simply unplug it after I get the movie ready on Netflix. Sometimes it has problems pairing but I blame the Motorolla HDDVR that I have from Comcast. Still no complaints at all. Working on getting a blu ray player for it still.

Got this off HSN with free shipping...easy to set up,beautiful picture, hdmi's made blu ray dvd and cable box set up a breeze. Remote works for tv and dvd easily. The blu-ray really popped the dvd..it's unbelievably sharp. No complaints. Compared it to the sonys and samsungs first. Very pleased with the 120hz and 50,000:1 contrast ratio for this price. You can adjust the sound and picture to the mode you want..cinema, sport, set by program, etc. And it has an automatic lighting adjustment in case you turn on a light, it will readjust the picture.
