5.0 out of 5 stars LCD TV at a great price!, May 30, 2005

This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT26HVE 26-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
I just bought this model for a spare bedroom tv.When I first hooked it up strictly through the cable tv cable, the picture was grainy. I then hooked it up through component cables into Time Warner's HD cable box. The picture is awesome! Great contrast, dark blacks, no artifacts. It truly looks like you are looking out a window when viewing HD channels. Standard definition channels look fine, also. The remote is a little quirky, but I found an RCA code that worked with the cable box remote. I mounted it on the wall using a Premier tilt/pan mount, but the stand mount that is included is also sturdy and good quality.What a great tv for the price!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for viewing DVDs, October 31, 2005

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT26HVE 26-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
I wanted to rave about this monitor as much as most other folks on this site, but I must say, I was not impressed with the Olevia when I first took it out of the box, connected it, and turned on the TV. I kept checking the sound on every channel to see if it said mono, because it sure didn't sound like stereo to me. I went through both manuals, trying to find some adjustment I could make to improve the picture and the sound. I even went out and bought the suggested S video cable, but I couldn't see any difference in the picture once I plugged it in.

But all that changed as soon as I popped in my Batman Begins DVD.

Wow. This monitor is the bomb. The sound is indeed stereo with rich tones and good separation. The picture is great with fantastic resolution, more than I hoped for.

I wish that the print in the user's manual were actually large enough for me to read with my 40+ year old eyes and that the onscreen menu were easier to maneuver. But it's clear to me that this thing was designed for watching DVDs in widescreen and at that, it absolutely excels. TV people look a bit squat and the sound is more like flat mono than stereo. Who needs television anyway? If you use this equipment for watching DVDs only, it will be well worth the price you paid for it. I have no complaints with it now.

3.0 out of 5 stars Look for the Updated Model, December 2, 2005
This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT26HVE 26-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
I just purchased the same brand and size tv but I puchased Model #LT26HVX for the same price. I read many reviews before purchasing and the HVX has had many improvements. The aspect ratio was improved and it was upgraded with the Philips LCD. Check the differences before you purchase. Except for the remote controls sleep timer function, I would rate mine a 5. I am writing this review because so many have helped me in my prior purchases that I would like to return the favor. When you make a purchase on any item, please write a review to help others.
