Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if there was any info on these Televisions. I am interested
in purchasing one of these TVs. I have not made my mind up as of yet but
both of the models I've seen so far at the electronics stores had a washed
out appearance to the picture. I've read somewhere that they are good TVs
but am looking for unbiased opinions.

I had the Toshiba 46HL167 and believe me, with a little bit of
adjustment of the user controls (color, bright, contrast), and a good
signal, the picture is spectacular. My daughter and her husband have
it now and are thrilled with it. I replaced it because it was a little
small for me with a Toshiba 56MX195, which is even better. Don't go by
what you see in the show room.

I'm sure I'll have to don my Kevlar suit, but Toshiba and Panasonic are
my top choices for picture quality, reliability, and often price.

What you see in the stores is meaningless.
If it's not a customer changing the settings, it's the clueless sales
droids wanting a higher profit model to look better.

Adjust it yourself.
Often times all that's necessary is to reset the picture to the factory
defaults. [Although most defaults set the color way too hot]

I've owned & recommended many a Toshiba and have only been been
disappointed once, many years ago.

Name a company that doesn't have a dog slip out the gate now and then.
