3.0 out of 5 stars
Wish I had bought a wide-screen monitor instead, November 2, 2004
This review is from: Philips 32PT8302/37 32" HDtv (Electronics)
This set seems much bigger than its 3'x2' footprint would suggest. It weighs 160 pounds.
Although this appears to be HD-ready nothing in the documentation mentions HDTV (or HD, or "high definition") at all - the only assurance that I have that this set is HD-ready is the list of features on the outside box.
In general, the documentation that comes with this set is atrocious. There is a pamphlet that is supposed to be a "quick" setup guide, and there is a larger user manual that ONLY discusses the use of the remote. There is no diagram anywhere that identifies all of the numerous sockets on the back of the TV.
I managed to hook up my Samsung DVD player with component output, and I love the quality of the image in 16x9 aspect ratio, but I wish I had bought one of the wide-screen sets they are now selling.
