Toshiba - 42HL67 Television — 

I researched HDTVs for almost a year before I settled on this one. It was reassuring to have Consumer Reports magazine agree with me, when they rated it a Best Buy in their Nove 2007 issue.

I purchased this at TV at Fry's for $999, which was a great price at the time (of course, the price will probably go down now). I've had it for a couple months, and couldn't be happier. No regrets at all. I haven't found any flaws in the picture, even when using special test patterns. No dead/stuck pixels, no shadows, no clouds.  And the sound is great, too.

This TV has many adjustments possible (more than typical TVs).  I had to fiddle with the picture adjustments a bit (using a DVD with test patterns/photos on it) to get the picture just the way I liked it.

My wife originally thought HDTV was a bunch of hype, but now she can't believe the difference, and we can't stand watching regular TV anymore.

I don't know if it is my bad luck, but I'm returning my second 42HL67 unit becuase of dead pixels. I love all the features of this tv and will probably get another hoping the third is a charm. The sound quality versus other brands was my differentiating feature that made me purchase this tv.

Great review. I am on the look out for a new flat panel. This one will need to be on my short list. Thanks.
