Dave Katragadda’s Full Review: Sansui HDLCD1900 19-Inch ATSC/CLEAR QUAM LCD HDTV For $178 on Black Friday. We were in need of a counter top TV for the kitchen. We are very pleased with the picture quality and the sound quality.
This television is truly something to be admired. dave katragadda say it’s also a work of art. I have a high definition cable box with an HDMI cable to the TV and the HD channels are superb. I mean, the picture is totally 100% crystal clear. I have windows behind me and somehow there is virtually no glare. Yes, the TV looks better when it is dark outside versus light outside but it’s perfectly great when it is light outside. I’m writing this review on my couch.
My laptop is connected to the TV via a VGA cable with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Unfortunately my laptop does not have HDMI but I can see very well with the VGA cable. Needless to say, I am going to become much more lazy as a result of this TV. The 40 inches is great for my viewing pleasure. I’m sure 46 is bigger but I am 100% content with 40 inches. It comes down to price.
I did not want to pay more than $1, 200 for a TV (that’s $100 a month for 12 months using the Amazon Store Card). So this was a no-brainer for me. If you are in the market for a TV, I highly suggest this one. It is truly a wonderful TV. The "only" thing that isn’t 100% perfect is the sound.
The sound is good mind you, but it is not as perfect as the picture. But for the record, I have not played with the equalizer which people report helps the sound. This is an amazing TV. UPDATE 6/12/2008: This is still a remarkable television. I don’t have any complaints about it at all. Even the sound is perfectly fine.
However, you MUST either have a Blu Ray player or an Upconvert player with an HDMI cable to get the full benefit. Everything looks and sounds perfect on this TV. UPDATE 7/13/2008: The TV is still perfect so just buy it already! I actually bought a 26" 3-series for my bedroom. I don’t notice too much of a difference; I am happy with this "worse" TV as I am with my living room TV (this one). Samsung makes an excellent LCD television! Recommended: Yes Amount Paid (US$): 178
