Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Zenith's flat-screen C36V23 is a fully integrated HDTV set, offering both high-definition pictures and improved over-the-air reception of digital TV broadcasts using Zenith's fourth-generation 8-VSB chipset, which also lets you receive over-the-air data broadcasts. The set's ATSC tuner receives and decodes full 1,920 x 1,080 resolution HDTV broadcasts--without the need for a costly external set-top box. The set also includes a built-in NTSC tuner for high-quality standard-definition program reception.

A 36-inch flat, fine-pitch picture tube provides distortion-free viewing with less glare than you get from conventional curved picture tubes. Picture quality and viewing are enhanced by an internal line doubler, a three-line digital comb filter, and 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio control through a user-friendly graphic interface. A full complement of component-video, composite AV, S-video, and RF inputs ensures compatibility with both digital and analog video sources. When viewed with a progressive-scan DVD player, your discs will look as great as can be.

2.0 out of 5 stars Watch out Dolby Digital users, November 19, 2002

This review is from: Zenith C36V23 36-Inch Integrated HDTV TV (Electronics)

Nice Tv except if you plan on playing a DVD using the component video inputs and your surround sound receiver. There is a delay in the video. Its like your watching and old Bruce Lee movie the lips move then you here the sound. It is most noticable when you use the TV speakers and your surround system at the same time. There is an echo first the sound goes through the TV then your system. I did this by accident the first time its pretty weird. There doesn't seem to be a problem when using the s-video input. Maybe a slight delay. This TV is fine if you plan on using the TVs speakers only. I asked Zenith about this problem and there very vague answer was "Thank you for your e-mail. That's a compatible problem between the unit and the surround sound". Be careful Home theater buffs.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great HDTV, November 24, 2003

This review is from: Zenith C36V23 36-Inch Integrated HDTV TV (Electronics)

I just bought this tv, C36V23 yesterday, and I must say I am more than happy with it. I shopped around for several weeks, looking at all kinds and brands, LCD, Plazma, Flat Screen, HDTV ready, integrated etc.. First of all, I must say that I hardly ever stray from Sony when it comes to TV's infact this is my first non-Sony tv and I am very happy with it. It comes with the HDTV tuner built right in, which is a nice feature, it picks up off-air digital channels and hdtv broadcasts beautifully, regular analog cable isnt the best quality picture, but that is expected and normal on all tv's. I cant wait to get digital cable or directv, I couldnt imagin all my chanels being as clear as the off air ones that i get now. It is very easy to use, i figured out and set it up in no time without even looking at the manual. I like the look of Sony's on screen display a little better, but the Zenith is very nice also and all in all had the same features if not a little more actually, it had an excellent picture and great style. I haven't experienced the delay problem the other writer mentioned in the audio and I do use component video cables with my progressive scan dvd and it sound and looks fantastic. Overall, I would reccomend this tv to anyone who wants a great package deal, easy to use and if you shop around, you can't beat the price for the quality.

This review is from: Zenith C36V23 36-Inch Integrated HDTV TV (Electronics)

This is a terrible purchase and Zenith knows it. I originally paid over a thousand for this TV. Within 3 months a purple haze formed in the background, back to the shop. Within the next three months the haze was back, apparently something was loose. Within the next six months the TV began to emit a squealing sound at random moments and it still does. I've told Zenith about it on three separate instances, all very early on within the customer experience. They say they're a six sigma company yet don't seem interested in the feedback? I had a Sony 27 never a problem with haze or sound. I'll never buy a Zenith again.
