Customer Reviews:
Great picture, great price, poor reliabilityDecember 1, 2006 My first set came new out of the box with a "buzzing" sound. I had read that DLP's can be a bit noisy, so I tried to ignore it at first. After a week or so I called the retailer I purchased it from who agreed it shouldn't be buzzing. They sent their repairman out who determined I needed a new engine, but my retailer just gave me a brand new tv instead.
My second set has no buzzing! However, after about 6 weeks (and this is a brand new, out of the box tv) the bulb burst! Luckily the local repair facility had bulbs in stock and it is very easy to replace.
Even with those problems I recommend this tv. The picture quality is absolutely fantastic! It's going for around $1700, which is what I paid, and it's worth every penny. The picture is so good I haven't even bothered upgrading my Directv subscription to HD - it looks great with a regular digital signal.
My advice is to buy this tv along with an extended warranty that also covers bulb replacement. I bought an additional 4-year, on-site repair including bulb replacement for $220. If it weren't for the problems I've had so far, I would rate this a 5-star!
I thought that Toshiba would be a winnerAugust 19, 2006 Have had the 56mx195 for 2 months now,picture is not $2700.00 worth.Halo's around the letters on the screen are always present(ie your TV guide,subtitles ect)color is always off .Going to call a tv repair man in,it's still under warranty and see if he can straightened out the picture problem.Now of course besides not being that happy with the TV in the first place the bulb went out on me last night.2 months old "unsatisfactory"!!I called Toshiba,all I got was that they would send me a bulb in a week.Lucky for me I bought the TV at a really reputable video store and he went in the back and took a bulb out of a TV in the back to get me going again.He told me that if I still had the box the TV came in I could return the tv.Really thinking about it.God I miss my 15 year old 52 inch Hitachi.Now for some of the good points.DVD's look pretty good on it when being played,it comes with a swivel stand.It also come's with a lot of extra's that the average tv watcher will probably never use.Think twice before you buy this tv.
Amazing hdtv!May 14, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have owned this tv for about a month now. The picture is amazing. Xbox 360 looks super sharp and Upconverted dvd's look great as well. The remote control and manual are relatively straight forward and easy to understand. I have my dvd player hooked to the HDMI 1 input and can see a great difference over component video. My only complaint is that the tv Will Not convert audio from HDMI to Optical. This is an major annoyance considering it is a digital signal just getting rerouted. The tv has one optical out which I am currently not using do to the non conversion problem. Hopefully Toshiba will update this.
