Fri 20th Jan, 2006 - Our New VIZIO L-32
After much research on TV’s (LCD, Plasma, CRT, DLP…) I finally decided the best replacement for my old 21-inch TV was an LCD. One day while at Sams we saw this VIZIO 32-inch LCD for $999, and when compared to the other LCD’s it had a very decent picture (almost no pixelation up-close.) So I went on the internet to seearch for this VIZIO (never heard of the company before) and found some very good reviews. Most people were really happy with what they were getting for the price. So my wife and I went for it and bought the TV, and let me tell you I’m very happy with the purchase. It has a good image quality (deep blacks, sharp colors, especially if you hook up the HD cables to the DVD) of course don’t expect plasma or crt quality. Sound is awesome, but remember to activate the “surround” feature built into the TV to get the best quality. I also like that the speakers are positioned at the bottom of the LCD, a real space saver. Like I said DVD’s look awesome but anything connected with composite cables will look regular. All in all this is a great TV for the price, especially if you’re upgrading from a 21-inch TV like me. I’ve included some pics of the TV (I’m not a pro so the flash shows up in some of the pics). By the way it includes a universal remote, which is perfect for the TV but sucks for controling anything else. I’m thinking of getting a universal control for the rest of my equipment. (BTW…props to Edu for lending me The Fifth Element)

ZZZZZZZZZZZ…ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ…..ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Mi pana el Blog mas aburrido que he visto. Prefiero buscar cabritas
Eso es que estas celoso del TV!!!! Te gustaria ver cabritas en una pantalla de 32″ te conosco!!!
Eso se paga, cuidado… After seeing this one and another big flat screen from someone in the family it just happened without even noticing — must have beeen hypnosis (sure!!). So, we got ourselves one, not an LCD though - queriamos el tubo, but a 30″ Samsung slim one with great definition and very cute
