Panasonic TC-32LX60 32" LCD HDTV

The Panasonic TC-32LX60 32" LCD HDTV is a 32" LCD HDTV with both an ATSC (high definition) and NTSC tuner, and connections for component and HDMI.

Like most modern HDTVs it has a host of impressive sounding technologies built-into it to improve picture quality. These include: advanced LCD AI to improve contrast and picture quality; an expanded IPS (in-plane switching) LCD for 'extra-wide' viewing; and a 3D/Y comb filter which 'separates brightness and color signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion'

The Panasonic TC-LX60 32" LCD HDTV has a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, a contrast ratio of 3000:1, and a response time of 8ms. Other features include 10W per channel speakers, virtual surround sound, parental controls, sleep timer, and a power consumption of only 126W.

It has a range of connectors for hooking up audio and video equipment. They are: composite audio and video (3 outputs, one input); S-Video (2 inputs); component video (2 inputs); HDMI (one input); headphone socket.This HDTV has had fantastic reviews on Amazon, including one reviewer who said 'before I bought this TV I viewed many brands in a dozen stores and this panasonic had one of the best displays. After I found this model under $1000 on Amazon, I made the purchase.'

Another reviewer on Amazon said of this Panasonic 32" LCD HDTV, 'nice wide screen LCD HDTV, good picture, adequate sound. I'm watching over-the-air broadcasts in HDTV. The football games and the PBS nature and travelogue shows are amazingly clear and sharp. The colors are also excellent.'

Just about the only complaint from reviewers is the lack of support for 1080p content. However, most HDTVs don't support 1080p at the moment, and most HDTV broadcasts aren't encoded at 1080p, so this shouldn't really be a problem — unless you intend buying an Blu-ray or HD-DVD player soon.
