This is a good all around HDTV in the 26" size-range that I had to have for my smallish entertainment cabinet. The DTV & HDTV picture quality (via Comcast Cable "out of the wall" no set-top box) is very good, particularly for the price.
My only BIG disappointment was the audio output options; the ONLY one available is a Digital Audio coaxial output. Since I'm using this as my primary TV, connected to a Home Theater system for improved audio, this is a major CON for me. The only way I can output analog audio is to route everything thru a clunky Cable set-top box (which I didn't otherwise want or need) that DOES have an analog output. Then I discovered that changing from "out of the wall" cable to the basic cable set-top box automatically converts all previously available digital TV signals back to analog!! Since I'm not willing to add to my already sky-high monthly cable bill to upgrade to all-HDTV programing & set-top box, I'll be moving this TV to a bedroom (where the TV speakers will be fine) and getting another brand that has all the audio and video inputs AND outputs that I need.
This a perfect example of not doing enough homework before a major purchase (which I really thought I had done). I verified all the new "hi-tech" connections, but the typical analog (left/right, red/white) audio output seemed so common that I didn't even think to check for it. I just assumed it would be there. Hope this helps someone else avoid an inconvenient and expensive oversight.

This is overall a great TV for the money. But when you change channels it takes about 3 seconds to tune in. This can be annoying if you like to channel surf

This TV had very low volume even for a regular size bedroom. The spec said it have dual 5 watts output but I know it's volume is lower than my mono 3 watts 13 inch TV. I exchanged first set thinking maybe a defect, but the second set is same low audio. I have above average hearing still had hard time to hear. I returned for other brand which I have no problem what so ever. I gave 2 stars only for nice picture but not wrose to buy!!

4 star Digital or 3 star Analog
I got this tv to use just for that, a tv. Because I have Cable, I was able to try it out with an Analog signal to start with and the picture quality was not very good. Read more
