Customer Review:
Simply Incredible!
My Wife and I had been putting off this purchase for over a year due to the fact that we were planning on moving. Over that time, I did my homework, massive amounts of research and reading reviews from just about every site on the net as well as following sale price trends between all the major brands.

We ordered our new toshiba on January 28th from AMAZON and paid $1499.00. Amazons policy is that within 30 days of purchase if they drop the price on an item youve purchased they will refund you the difference so I kept an eye on the price and it dropped twice getting my final price (So Far) down to $1184.88!! Amazon CSR was more than happy to issue the two refunds. I cant tell you how happy I am about this price. On February 2nd our new Toshiba 47HL167 arrived at our new apt a week ahead of schedule. EGL is amazons “White Glove” Shipping Service for higher end products such as LCDs.

I Cannot stress enough how helpful and professional they were. The office went out of their way to get my TV to me before the super-Bowl (NY Giants Baby!) and the delivery guy even took his sneakers off (without me asking him to) in my apt so he wouldnt get the new carpet dirty Right out of the box the picture was incredible but after a little tweaking it was even better than we had hoped for. The HD channels are truly amaing to look at. The regular broadcast channels are a bit grainy at times but this is true of all LCDs from what I’ve read. We hooked up a Memorex 1080i Upconverting DVD player and our DVDs look fantastic.

Cant wait to get the Blu-Ray Player! We also have the Wii and the Xbox 360 hooked up via Componant HD cables and both are awesome. My wife and I disagree on the screen size. She thinks that 47″ is too big for our apt but I thing its just big enough to give that “Oh Wow” effect to people when they come in to visit. All our friends love it and you will too. The Remote is very sturdy and does its job although its not backlit which for me was no big deal. I’ve seen some reviews where people also complain about no PIP (Picture-In-Picture) but once again, no big deal and besides, My DVR has PIP anyway.

Another thing that people complained about is the speakers not being up to par but I think they are fine and besides, most people, myself included, intend to use this TV in conjuction with a home theatre sound system. Problem solved.

So here is my breakdown of pros and cons:

Pros: ~~~~ Price: Unbeatable for a Toshiba 47″ Picture Quality: Just Incredible to look at in HD User Friendly: Very easy to figure out. Aesthetics: Beautiful Piano-Black Bezel. Stunning! Sound: Terrific but you may want to go with a home theatre setup for truly stunning movie experiences. Colors: Truly where this TV Shines. So true to life they really are amazing. Compatibility: 3 HDMIs, 2 Componant HDs, 2 RCA and Digital Audio Out. Nuff Said

Cons: ~~~~ None. Do yourself a favor and check this Toshiba out before you pay $2000.00 dollars for a samsung or even more for a Sony. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. AMAZON…AWESOME JOB!! ~JC~
