"outstanding good lasting quality"
Pros: great HD image quality, separate AV box, great sound w/ speakers, swivel stand, overall design
Cons: SD image not great, pricey.
Summary: Purchased in May 2004. Been running almost round the clock like a champ for 5 years now. No issues, still great picture quality. Great for games, HDTV, Blue-Ray, DVD, ect. Hasn't been too many other TV's in recent years that I feel have better overall HD picture quality. Almost time to get new set 5 years later but still loving this Hitachi. Only wish it could be Back-Fitted for HDMI use. Has DVI and Component but HDMI really wasn't on the scene at time of purchase but now would love to have it. Size and HDMI are the only reasons I would even consider replacing this as my main Living Room set. Many friends bought flat panels over the last 5 years and the only, Single, ONLY..... TV I've seen that for sure looked better was a 60" KURO Elite. Just saw the new Samsung 240hz LED/LCD and still not sold on LCD. You could probably find one of these Hitachi's for $800 now somewhere but it would stack up against almost anything at least in the 42 range overall.
