Customer Review: Fantastic Picture for a Great Price.
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had my LG for about 2 weeks. I did about 2 weeks of research before purchasing it. I wanted to replace the 30" Olevia in my bedroom that is a little too small. I measured my armoire and had room for most 37" flat screens. My criteria for a new set was size and I wanted 1080P. My research included the JVC LT-37X688 37-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV, the Toshiba REGZA 37RV530U 37-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV and the Samsung LN37A550 37-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV. I decided on getting the LG mainly because of a couple of good reviews, LG makes many of the screens of the other manufacturers and because I could pick one up locally.
The actual unit is beautiful. It is shipped with off the stand. One complaint I have about the stand is that you stick it inside the bottom of the TV and you screw it into the back. The screws are set so deep that although I thought they were in, 2 have fallen out. It doesn't really effect the TV though that the screws fell out. This is the third LCD TV I have unpacked and it was the only one not shipped with the stand on.
Picture out of the box is amazing. There are several preset modes that you can choose that effect picture and sound. These can be tweaked by the user. It also has a mode called Real Cinema that displays HD movies in 24 frames per second like they are shot in.
I have a PS3, Dish Network HD and a Toshiba Laptop with HD DVD and HDMI out that I have used with the TV without a problem. I am watching Live Free or Die Hard on the PS3 now and it looks stunning.
Besides the stand problem, there is one other thing I don't like. Like all flat screens now, the speakers are hidden behind the plastic benzel. Rumbling sound effects and low frequency sounds cause it to vibrate sometimes. This is more noticeable the closer you get to the TV. Some reviews of the 37" Samsung model I was looking at also mentioned this problem. Ironically, this is the reason I did not get the Sammy. This is why I give it a 4 star rating. Of course, if you are hooking to a surround system this complaint doesn't matter.
ADDENDUM I wanted to add that this LCD has the flat matte screen. No shiny glare like my CRT RPTV with the plexi-glass cover make movie viewing so much more enjoyable.
UPDATE: I have 3 LCD TVs by 3 different makers. Of the 3, the LG is the one that has NOT had a picture problem. I have an Olevia with a weird wide vertical band that is darker then the surrounding picture. I have a Mitsubishi that needed a new screen because of a thin vertical green line (The part was made by Samsung btw). When the repair man came for the Mitsubishi, he explained the rattle in the LG. The speakers have a metal cover. There are rubber dampeners between the metal speaker cover and plastic bezel that can get dislodged. That is why there is a rattle on loud volumes and its amplified the higher you have treble and bass.
