Philips Magnavox 50" Projection TV
Magnavox 50ML8105D 50" Widescreen HDTV DLP with Tuner

Even with a Digital Input signal the picture is fuzzy. A 'Focus' adjustment would help. The design has a nice layout and is fairly thin (compared to actual 'Rear Projection' units). The overall image is good when viewing the screen from wide angles (specs say 160 degrees). Vertical image is fine within reason, say 60 degrees total (30 up and 30 down). Remote is standard fare, usable and friendly. Haven't tried to program the unit using a different remote (Cable provider Digital Box remote) so I can't comment on how well that works. The floor model exhibited an exceptional image. My unit is lacking....sure wish I could adjust the focus !!

I've had this TV for a couple weeks and it is great. The picture quality is excellent and the perfect companion for HD cable service. With some decent component video cables, the picture is as good as it gets with sharpness that rivals real life. The delivery was also much less than the 7-9 business days that they say it can be. You will not find a better deal than this.

I've had this TV for a week now. Purchased it here on Buy.com and overall I am very satisfied so far. It has alot of inputs and a remote that offers easy access to them. Not being the most slim DLP out there it still fits nicley on the TV stand that I already had. Picture quality is amazing with HD programming. I am currently using Comcast with HD and channels such as INHD and Discovery HD are truely fantastic. However, once you go to view a analog channel you really notice the difference. That is a general problem with HDTV's though. I have not yet used the built in tuner, but will try it soon. Football season promises to be awsome this year as sporting events really take on a whole new dimension in HD. Myself not being a basketball fan found myself glued to the NCAA tourney just amazed at the detail! The deal here on Buy.com was the best I could find anywhere for a HDTV of this size and performance. All we need now is more HD programming!

First off let me start by saying Buy.com was great. I ordered the TV on a wednesday afternoon and recieved the TV the following monday. Was faster than the 9+ days quoted.<br><br> Now on to the TV...I've had it for about a month now and I really can't say enough about the this DLP TV. The picture quality is incredible. With the build in ATSC tuner we have been watching American Idol in HD and loving it. (all I have hooked up is your standard rabbit ears antenna plugged into the antenna hook-up) the colors are great and the picture is razor sharp. We also have our Digital cable plugged into an SVideo slot. The picture is not nearly as good as the ATSC HD programming but we are not getting an HD feed from our cable provider so the quality is as good or near as good as a standard TV. I also have an XBOX with the HD-AV pack hooked up and it really changes the gaming experience. I love it! Looks just as good as it did hooked up to my PC monitor. Speaking of PC's I also have a laptop hooked up to the VGA connector on the PC. The picture is nearly as good as a PC monitor. Especially if you use 1280x960 Resolution. The other resolutions result in a bit of the bottom of the screen being cut off, but not enough to prevent you from using it (half of the Windows start bar is cut off at 800x600 and 1024x768). Playing DVD's is such a pleasure on this TV. The picture quality is just like yo are at the movies.<br><br> The sound is pretty good from this set. Not as powerful as you might like (could have more base). But with the digital audio out connectors you can easily hook it up to your dolby surround system.<br><br> The Picture in picture feature can be a bit confusing at first because of what you are allowed to show in one picture and then the other. But this seems common to all PIP features on HDTV's. If you hook things up right you will be able to watch 2 different pictures as you like.<br><br> The remote is great and well layed out. It's nice that it has a button for each input. Just press the one you want and it changes. Also the PIP buttons are well layed out.<br><br> The configration menu on the TV is nice and easy to nderstand and has a few picture and sound presets for you or you can manually adjust everything.<br><br> To sum up, this DLP TV is great TV overall and even better at the Buy.com price. You really can't go wrong. The amount of features and inputs and the quality of the picture you get with this HDTV makes it easy to recommend.<br><br> <b>Now stop researching and looking around and just buy it already ;)</b>
