There really aren't many 37 inch sets to choose from.lots of 32 inch, 40 inch, and 42 inch, but not many 37 inch. I just turn it off.Negatives:I'm not very happy with the instructions that came with it.just one big sheet of paper, printed on both sides, that folds and folds and folds.
Also, because I have several audio and video components there are not quite enough input/output terminals. I would much prefer a booklet.
Positives: We are very limited in the size of a high def tv because our entertainment center has a limited width. I use a surround sound system, so I can't really comment on the TV sound.
But with a little ingenuity you can get everything connected.I would recommend it based on picture quality and ease of setup. The Sharp LC37D44U was the only 37-inch set that we found that would fit, and it touches the sides of the cabinet on both sides.
The tv set arrived in perfect condition, it set up easily and quickly, and the picture quality is great.
It's not a smudge it's damage to the LCD screen itself. So I returned it and ordered another. The second one came with dark spots on the screen that will not go away. Honestly I don't know if this is a result of poor quality on Sharp's part or poor shipping process on UPS's part or poor packaging on J&R's part. I will not buy another one nor will I buy another Samsung TV ever again. The first one would not power on. However, I have ordered two of these TV's and both arrived damaged. The green power light just kept flashing.
We went with size (this 37") over higher quality. I can't complain at all - seems like a great set to me.
Most of the stuff we watch is 1080i which looks great and seems to be a lot better than the 720p stuff (thought I read somewhere that 1080i didn't look so good on this set but it looks great to me). I think the hi-def is really impressive - it's crisp and the colors look vibrant and natural to me both on HD broadcasts and blu-ray.
We wanted a flat screen HDTV to fit in our armoire. And I'm really happy with the purchase.
My only gripe is there's no headphone jack but if you've got a receiver, that won't be an issue for you. It was either this set or a high end 32".
My feeling was that since this would be our first HDTV, it was going to be an upgrade no matter what.
I wish the controls would let me customize it some more and if this was my primary TV, I would need it to be 1080p, but for the price, it is a good deal and a nice unit. The picture is good and the sound is good.
great deal, great TV , great price, delivered fast -cant ask for more than that.
