Solid LCD screen with beautiful design

Nov 28, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: The picture quality is amazing and the design is so sleek and modern
Cons: the sound system lacks punch
Opinion:
Been using this TV for about 6 months and never once regretted shelling out my money for this wonderful TV. The picture quality is good, especially when watching HD content (I'm using Starhub's HD Set-top box which came free with a 12 months subscribtion with this TV) and DVDs.

However failed to listen to the audio reproduction as all sets in the display showrooms were on mute so as not to cause a ruckus if every set's audio were turned on. Found out only when the set was delivered that bass was non-existent or if present, produced a distorted sound like a low-level rumbling just like watching the movie "EARTHQUAKE". It also went "bok" "bok" "bok" instead of "boom" "boom" "boom". It can be disconcerting. Thought it was just my particular set was problematic so called in the engineers.
