    "Stunning picture quality. Great value."

    on July 24, 2004

    Pros: Over many days, my wife and I compared this set to pretty much all of its competition before deciding it was the easily the one to get.

    "Pricy but you get what you paid for"

    on July 23, 2004

    on September 24, 2004

    Pros: Excellent picture out of the box, even better if you do a manual convergence. Plenty of inputs and options. Easy to set up and use.

    "Mind numbing wine"

    on December 31, 2004

    Pros: Fantastic picture

    Cons: Cooling fans are exceptionally loud on this model. Have had fans replaced twice with no improvement. Called Hitachi and were told that this is a common complaint with this model and there is no fix for it. They told us to "accept that big TVs make noise".
