Magnavox TV Reviews
We purchased this TV to replace a smaller non HD one we had in our bedroom and are pleased with it. It's a simple to work TV and we don't seem to have some of the issues others are having. This is our 2nd HD LCD TV and compared to our Vizio it's pretty basic, but that's not saying it's a bad TV at all.
*Sound - For a large room I can see turning this up higher and the sound quality going down, but in a bedroom at around 15-20 ( the setting goes up to 100 which we would never have a need to ) it works just fine. Due to previous experience with our other TV we learned that some of the "sound issues" people are having could be from the True Surround ( ON -kicks out a little more sound. OFF -sound is a little flat) or the Auto Volume Leveling ( ON -seems to lower the volume drastically, we had the TV set to 12 and it was fine but when we turned this feature on the sound was equal to 5-6. This feature was introduced a while back to combat the jerk commercial makers that have their commercials broadcast at higher volumes because they figure if they talk louder we will want to buy whatever it is they are selling. It's kind of like someone talking louder and slower to someone that doesn't speak the same language as they do....it doesn't really change the fact that they don't understand your words. There has been talk about something being passed to make it so this can no longer be done with commercials. OFF -you get more sound but may have to deal with annoying commercials being louder. There is a digital coax output in back to connect to a theater system and a standard headphone jack.
I am pleased with this TV and would recomend it to someone looking for a 1080p TV that's not tiny or huge for a bedroom.
*Picture is crisp and can be viewed as well as you can see yourself from the side. The image does not fade out.
My only complaint is the remote layout. The arrow selection buttons are at the bottom of the remote and the source button is clear at the top. I feel the source button should have been by the arrow buttons for quicker and more natural use. Three extra source buttons would have been nice ( HDMI, TV, Component) to quick select source options. This bugs me but it's pretty minor and if you are using a universal remote you may not have this problem at all.
