Toshiba 27D46 27" Standard Definition CRT TV

Product Description

This is a standard 4:3 CRT TV that adds new ATSC and QAM digital TV tuners on top of the normal NTSC analog TV tuner. If you're considering the purchase of a TV now, this is a very important feature. On 2/17/2009, the Federal Communications Commission, is going to flick a very significant switch. At that moment, digital TV replaces analog TV. If you don't have an ATSC or QAM TV tuner, you won't be able to receive any TV broadcast signals. That's because the usually built-in NTSC analog tuner will no longer be functioning. Though the 27D46 is not an HDTV, it will still be capable of receiving new digital broadcasts. If you've older TV's at home, they would not work at all.

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy excellent video imagery and audio performance from the affordable 27-inch Toshiba 27D46 non-flat CRT television for years to come. It features a standard 4:3 aspect ratio screen and 480i (interlaced) display resolution, which isn't compatible with the pristine imagery of true high-def resolution broadcasts. However, you'll still be able to receive digital broadcasts thanks to the set's built-in ATSC (DTV) tuner--which pulls HD signals right from the airwaves--and its QAM tuner that is fully compatible with unscrambled HDTV cable reception. A standard analog NTSC tuner receives standard-definition (SD) programming. Surprisingly slim at just 19.25 inches deep, its attractive silver and gray cabinet will look great in any room

For viewing HDTV and widescreen DVD movies, this set offers selectable 16:9 aspect ratio modes (the native high-def aspect ratio) for displaying widescreen HDTV images on this 4:3 television. The vertical compression mode function creates black bars at the top and bottom of the screen and displays all 1080 lines inside the illuminated 16:9 portion of the screen.

The digital comb filter converts chrominance and luminance signals into a digital medium prior to separation and 2H delay. This process provides enhanced color purity and reduced dot crawl. It's also able to eliminate detail noise in intricate scenes as well as reduce color bleed from broadcast sources. The advanced velocity scan modulation feature improves black to white image transitions for sharper detail and enhanced picture definition in high brightness operating conditions.

The GameTimer feature also allows parents to set the TV to shut off after a specified period of game playing, and it will stay off until a lockout key code is entered. Other features include a glow-key remote contol, closed caption decoding, channel labeling, favorite channel, tri-lingual onscreen menus (English, French, Spanish), and V-Chip parental controls.

This set has two stereo speakers that produce 2.5 watts of power per channel (5 watts total) that can produce virtual surround sound. The double baffle front-firing speaker design delivers improved stereo sound reproduction without connection additional speakers. The StableSound feature eliminates the annoyance of normal program volume being followed immediately by extremely loud commercial messages or drastic volume fluctuations while changing channels. It features the following video and audio connections:

Composite A/V: 2 (1 front)
S-Video: 1
Component Video: 1
RF: 1

Tech Talk
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

Toshiba 27" tv.......2007-05-13

Picture is sharp and color is very good. I prefer better audio but hooked to a set of powered speakers everything is great. It is good that it will not become obsolete very quicklly becdause it has digital inputs also.

Cheaply Made.......2007-03-26

This TV cost me $320.00. The picture is OK, but the sound is definitely low quality. I had to really turn up the bass on it to get it to quit sounding so thin and cheap. When I hooked the audio outputs into my stereo system, I had to turn the bass all the way up on my stereo amp and the treble all the way down just to have an adequate amount of bass to enjoy hearing music on it. This TV is the quality that I expect to see in a motel room, but not what I am willing to live with for the next decade or two.

The worst part is that when you are running the sound through the stereo, the TV volume control only controls the TV, not the sound that you are running through the stereo. If you need to turn it up or down you have to walk over to the stereo and do it manually.

Today I am returning this TV to the store where I bought it.

Customer Reviews:

Great Buy!.......2002-01-04

This is a great buy, particuarly if you're like me and you really need a new TV and don't have a lot of money to spend. (It's foolish to buy an HGTV now with so few stations that broadcast in HGTV and the price of HGTVs are too high, they will come down in a few years.) The only difference between this and a more expensive model i was looking at was the higher priced TV had a universal remote and channel labels. But since I don't mind switching remotes and channel labels are really not nessessary,save the $50 and get this one. You can always buy a universal remote later. The only problem with this TV was that the recpection on some of the stations wasn't as good as my old one, but others were (some even better), so it's a wash and I doubt if that's the fault of the maker. If you're looking for a good mid sized big screen TV, this is a good one.

Customer Reviews:

Tinney sound - otherwise comfotable, but not acceptable.......2006-08-18

The headphones have nice design features, excellent base pick up and excellent other stats. However it fails in actual sound quality - the sound is tinney and simply sounds cheap. While it registers base nicely, its treble is way off (on the loud end) which irritated me. I bought them to replace some headphones that are getting rattly - but I like my old ones lots better.

If you don't care about the tinney sound, it would be an excllent pair, good style, comfortable, and nice cord retract feature. However my advice is still to get a different pair unless you're deaf to frequencies above 15kH.

Good Fit And Price But Only Medicore Sound.......2006-03-01

After purchasing a Sony Walkman (DEJ001), I hated the headphones that came with the walkman. They were not comfortable and had poor sound quality (inferior bass). So after deciding between the h.ear and these, I went with Panasonic for the fuller frequency range and the gray color.

Clip-On Earbuds

Clip-on earbuds are very similar to the standard earbuds, with a hook that goes all the way around your ear. If you haven't tried clip-on earbuds or behind-the-neck headphones, you'll probably have to take some time getting them to fit correctly. If you are used to them, chances are you know how to fit them and it won't be a problem.

Sound Quality

Country - Pretty good sound, not a lot of bass was needed for the test, though. I got a lot of treble power and clarity, something I didn't expect. Overall most of it sounded good.

Dance/Techno - I put in a lot of stuff and I got so-so results. A lot of the beats had low bass and some of it was lost, but most of the vocals were good. Not the best for this genre.

Latin - I got good results as long as there weren't a whole lot of beats.

Metal/Rock - I put a lot of hard stuff in here and I was pretty suprised it handled all of it. The bass wasn't too exciting but most of the hard rock was above average.

Pop - Most of it sounded above average but a lot of bass was lost from the headphones (as usual).

Rap - I really tested this genre because rap needs a lot of range, thinking that it would "bring out" the headphones but my expectations were not met. The bass was a little stronger but not a whole lot.

R&B - It sounded pretty good but when the bass was playing it wasn't too big.

I made the final conclusion on the sound. It has amazing treble but very poor bass. For the price ($6) it was good but if you compare them to the h.ear or the other earbuds around the $10-$15 these just don't hold up. If your listening to classical, opera, vocal pop, or soft rock, these will do but for anything else with big bass these will not, and I mean NOT cut it.

Design

They are a little similar to the h.ear headphones but a little different. They stick out a lot more than the h.ear probably because the clip isn't connected to the earbud. Another thing is that the clip twists to fit your ear (this is something you'll probably have to see). The cord is gray and seems very durable.

Comfort

Overall the comfort is pretty good as long as your ears aren't too big or too small. They are pretty averagely sized and fit me pretty well. Another thing (like I said before), if you haven't tried similar earbuds with the clip (like the MDRJ10 or the KSC22), you'll probably have to take some time getting used to the fit and learning how to put them on. So if they don't fit right, don't immediately send them back to the store because within time they might feel a whole lot better.

Price

I paid $6 for these at Wal-Mart. Overall the price is set about right. They weren't the most expensive (duh) nor were they the cheapest; they were somewhere in the middle. You could get, with a little more money, the better sounding h.ear.

Overall

They fit and feel right and they are inexpensive. The sound is a little inferior but you have to consider the fact that they are only $6. If they were over the $10 I would say there sound is way too bad for this price but for $6 is pretty good. Overall, if your looking for very inexpensive that will do, these are okay. If your looking for good sound, pass on by.

Convenient but annoying.......2006-02-28

The overall size is convenient. The sound quality is ok for the price. The clips hold the buds on your ear, but I found it very difficult to position the clips so the buds stay in the ear. For some reason the clips do not want to stay flat against my head and annoyingly flip outward like little wings.

Great little things.......2005-08-25

I know that these are cheap. But they sound alot better then more expensive models...30-40 dollar range. I know, cause I used to have them. I bought this cheaper model, since it will see alot of abuse. But I was really surprised at the sound that came out of it. Bass is excellent and highs are too. Mids are ok. Now if you have a crappy mp3 player, you'll get grappy sound out of these. I use an ipaq with these headphones and sound great. The only thing I did, was adding foam inserts which I purchased from the doller store. Total cost is still under 10 dollars.

Very good.......2005-03-12

These are very good headphones. Excellent bass for the price range. These are better than the similarly priced Sony headphones, which have no bass whatsoever. I use these when I'm out for a walk. I use a pair of Sony cans at home.
