Mine is great. The picture is very good. I mean that because I have a panasonic 65vt50 and after watching that I can still enjoy watching this one. So it most not be that bad if my eyes can stand the change from the best you can buy to this tv. It's currently in my bedroom

I ended up purchasing this display as well...and I'm very happy with it. I've owned the TV for roughly a month now...Regarding the questions that I asked previously in this post, I have yet to see any banding issues on any DVDs or Blu rays, no clouding issues, and have not experienced any hdmi hand shaking issues what so ever. I really can not comment right now on the sports issue due to the football season being over...but I will be watching the NCAA tourney! So far, the TV has performed exceptional and the picture quality is excellent. I feel the display's panel being a 10 bit panel over an 8 bit like most other LCD displays really is beneficial!by the way, Thanks for the response James :P I ended up purchasing this display as well...and I'm very happy with it.

Can you tell me what exactly worked? I just started looking into buying this television and am not following your blog. It would make me crazy if I had this problem because I've always had it with my Toshiba Plasma, which I'm replacing.

Hello--I just bought this TV and it was delivered on April 1st. I have it set up with a Directv HD satellite box via an hdmi cable. The picture is very good to excellent. I also have a 50" plasma and compared to this Toshiba, I think [the plasma] has a better picture, but I also have an older 20" Samsung lcd and this Toshiba blows it away. I think you'll be happy if you purchase this TV and connect it to an HD source. One drawback I can see is that viewing angles are not the best; that's something that lcd's are known for. If you watch this TV off to one side as opposed to straight on viewing, the colors get a bit washed out. The other thing I noticed is that this TV has only one antenna/cable input. My old TV that this one replaced had 2, and I was able to plug in the satellite box to one and a "rabbit ears" antenna to the other. Then I was able to switch to the antenna feed and watch our extra local over-the-air TV channels (such as 2, 5, 7, 9 in Chicago). (I can get the digital local channels with satellite, but not the extra 5.1, 5.2, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, etc. channels) I suppose I could buy a splitter/diplexer to split the signal, but it might not work with satellite (I believe it will work with cable but I'm not sure). Other than that (and the viewing angles), I'm very, very pleased with this TV.

I hooked up my PC, picture is great, basically i use it as a monitor, because i have cable box, dvd, sound surround system and PC, everything connected with HDMI cables. I have no complains. Good luck!

Have had thw A750 for 1 month. Everything about it is great. Best picture I've ever seen. Halo Effect is negligable and the screen is not glossy enough to use as a mirror. I do have one question: When the TV come on, the screen says resolution of 1980 x 1080i @60hz. Why does it say 60 hz when the 120 hz is set to its highest?

Would any of you who own this TV please speak up your experience? I'm considering a buy until seeing this thread. Please help. Thanks. Luan

Hi, The TV is excellent. Very good quality for a non "name brand". I will gladly purchase another one when this one dies.

The resolution is great. I use it mostly as a computer monitor. It's in my craft room, so it's used as a TV too. Hooked up directly to cable line, so there isn't any kind of interference at all. I love the large size for a computer monitor, but still large enough to watch TV on!

My big issue is all the negative discussion on the 750 "Halo" - light leak around the edges.Is this gone on the 850/860? The 850 is slightly cheaper at AZ, only because shippingis free. If the 750 really is a fine tv and the halo is all over statement, then thebetter sound actually helps me. Appreciate suggestions.

Haluk,Thanks for the response; I realize now that I actually have the Panasonic TH-50PX77U, but I'm guessing that the solution is the same, and too expensive as well. Although I am in the market for a new computer, so it wouldn't have to be a VGA based laptop, but still prob. too expensive regardless?Thanks

Hi ajs,This TV is a fantastic choice for DVD viewing. Setup is really intuitive and the picture is great even if you just use the out-of-the-box settings, though I'd recommend changing them for the best picture.

Tv's just aren't made to run like computers. However, I use mine and I don't have any issues with its performance. It's runs just like I expected a tv should.

Thank you for your helps also on this. I just bought a 55inch toshiba and it had SOE issue. It did look funny watching tv like this. It felt like the picture wasnt real or the angles of the camera were screwed up. It actually felt like i was on the set watching the actors/actresses acting a scene out. SCARY.. thanks all for this info. Im sure it will help many out there with this problem.

Good Set,,, I'm sure you guys will love it. My house is very small and my wife & I don't have eyes big enough to see a screen that big up close like we are.I forgot to mention that we didn't pay anything for our machine. We had a big screen projection TV (Sony) and had an extended warrenty and it got "un-fixable". Sears allowed us enough to get this one without paying more. I got lucky on that one.Bye the way, if you or anyone wants to send a note once in a while here's my address;{ jergay@msn.com }I'll try to reply as soon as I am able.See Ya'
