A top performer among 42-inch sets but on the pricey side. This set had excellent HD and DVD picture quality and very good standard-definition picture quality. But black areas of the image consistently looked a little too bright. The remote control is excellent and is easy to use in low lighting. The rear jacks' labels are very easy to read. The set can receive images via wired home network (Ethernet). It has a long (24-month) warranty on parts and labor. Remote has two buttons - "Home Menu" and "Menu" - which can be confusing; only the first activates the TV menu. There's no menu button on the console so if you lose the remote you can't adjust the TV's settings.
Price: $ 1,689.00- $ 2,549.99
