We purchased the Toshiba 52 Regza after researching many brands & models wanting the best set for the money.
In a side by side comparision between the Sony & Sharp Aquos - the Toshiba had a superior picture. I was frankly surprised, initially anticipated the Sony with its much higher price tag would be the best & had intended to purchase the Sharp Aquos but the Toshiba won out hands down in comparision.
Since we have purchased the Toshiba 2 months ago - am completely satisfied with the high quality level of the picture.
The sound could be improved but I use a Bose home theater so the sound eminating from the set is not a major consideration.
Colors are true - black is black & in HD mode its incredible.

My wife and I couldn't be happier with our purchase. This 52LX177 has a commendable picture quality, and makes our older 27" flat screen TV look outdated. We appreciate the 'no reflection' properties of LCD Screen - our well lit aquarium and open blinds in the background do not reflect off the TV - infact you forget they're even there! I have heard of inherent `blurring' with LCDs, but when comparing this with my brother-in-law's 42" Plasma I didn't see any unusual blurring on this set - I believe the minimal blurring I saw on selected programs was in the source rather than the TV. One thing I'm still trying to figure out is the difference between 120hz and 60hz - so far they both seem the same even in fast moving action scenes, although I'm sure there is some inherent advantage in 120hz that I haven't noticed yet. The viewing angle is great.. even if I stand adjacent to the set, every bit of the program is as clear as when seen from front of the TV! Now I can't wait to get a Blue Ray player once those come down to an affordable price, so I can enjoy movies in 1080p! I would recommend this TV to anyone.
