"Solid Performer"
Pros: No significant picture flaws; color adjustments available
Cons: Colors not entirely accurate
Summary: Overall, this set provides an excellent quality picture and mediocre sound - but I use it with a 5.1 system, so the sound doesn't bother me much. My set has no backlight bleeding or banding problems. Black levels are good, but there is still noticeable light output on an all black screen. Viewing angles and handling of motion are also good but not outstanding. Skin tones look very realistic and shadow details are decent. While the set does not offer a full range of color temperature controls, I was able to get an overall cast to the picture that looks realistic to me with the controls it does have. Colors are vivid without being overdone. I came to realize that the reds were too dark and the blues too light, but with hue adjustments from the colormaster control they look better now. At just under 31" wide, the set is about a 1/2' thinner than many competing 32" sets, which was critical in my case. Thus, I never checked out the Samsung or Sony 32" models, but at this point I don't feel at all cheated.
