Sanyo DP26648

Summary: I went to Walmart with the intention of buying a 32" tv today. When I got there and started comparing picture quality, I found that I really liked the quality of this set and I would save considerably by going with 26". I was really hoping that once I got the set home, I wouldn't be disappointed in the quality of the picture in a smaller environment. Well I wasn't disappointed! In fact, I did have a 32" in the same room and honestly, I really like this Sanyo better! And the 32" was a higher-end brand, so-called. I know it isn't the perfect tv for everyone or for every room. But for the room we are using it in, it is just right. Ten feet away and we can still read the text on the screen perfectly.
I wouldn't have a problem recommending this tv to anyone. In fact, I fully intend to tell both of my sisters about it tomorrow.
It is a wonderful television for those of us who are on a budget and don't want to have to sacrifice quality and features just because we can't afford the bigger, higher-end sets.
As we were unloading the tv from our truck tonight, my in-laws were sitting outside. They saw the Sanyo box and asked what we got. It turns out that they have the exact same set. They wouldn't trade it for another any day! They have theirs connected with a 75ohm cable and think it's the bee's knees. Mine is connected with an HDMI cable.
Another thing I am very happy with is the quality of the on-board sound. I have it connected to my home theater but, when I am just watching tv programs I use the tv speakers. The other HDTV I owned had very poor sound. Muffled.
The ability to adjust is incredible. So many options to choose from when setting sound, picture, etc.. Many presets and the option to adjust manually.
I guess my bottom line is this; I am not overburdened with an abundance of cash. I often have to sacrifice one thing or another whenever I choose a product. With a tv, if you spend cheap you get cheap. Thankfully that is not the case with this tv. No sacrifice at all.
If you are looking for a nice set and 26" is what you need or maybe all you can afford, Buy It! You will not be sorry!
