Disappointed.......2006-07-28

Remanufactured usually implies manufactured again and I expected it to be in a "restored to like-new" condition. Mine arrived very poorly packed, had scratches on the front, and a good size ding on the corner. When I took it out of the box, something was rattling around inside. This was clearly a "used" condition TV. Had I bought a "used" TV, my expectation would have been aligned accordingly. The replacement TV arrived in a similar condition, therefore I question damage during shipping, although neither were packed properly. The TV picture quality itself was fair. I tried several different settings. The picture lost focus on the edges and ch +/- changed the source rather than the channel. Because I repackaged it for return, I didn't spend a lot of time trying to figure it out. The speakers are on the side, so there is 26" of LCD panel and another 8 inches or so in speaker width. The on-board audio was ok but I expected to be impressed with those speakers. I bought this TV for a primary family room. Had it been for a secondary viewing room, I might have kept it but my 23" Samsung costs less, has all of the features, is top quality, and has a 23" viewing panel in a 25" casing. Just align your expectations...in this case "remanufactured" means used.

Great PC Monitor, High Definition TV, Cool Factor, & Price!.......2006-07-14

We initially purchased the Magnavox 26 in. 26MF605W HDTV monitor with the intention of using it solely as a large PC monitor. The 26 in. monitor was to replace my 17 in. flat screen LCD monitor in our bed room. We bought it in August 2005 from Sears for $850 on sale, which was a great bargin at the time.

Performing as a PC monitor, the display offers beautiful resolution and clearity. When I first pluged everything in I didn't know if I could keep it, because of the brightness. After adjusting the brightness setting in PC mode all the way to 0, however, every thing was fine. I'm so spoiled having my 26 in. flat screen monitor at home that I feel like I should also have one at work. It is hard to imagine how we got along with our 17 in. in the past. It is everything I hoped for in a monitor, and more.

After having the monitor for about a month I discovered that it had HDTV capability as well, and figured I'd explore maximizing all of its talents. The eyes of my understanding were enlighted, and I was introduced to the wonder, awe inspiring world of high definition television! I never imagined that TV could be so colorful, bright, rich, sharp, and just a joy to watch until that day, September 9, 2005 when the Comcast guy came over and hooked me up!

The high definition inputs can be provided to the TV in only (2) ways; through the composite, (red green, blue), video cables, which I use, and/or through a DVI cable, (analog and digital format). In addition to these (2) input modes and the PC, VGA input mode it also has (3) AV inputs, (2) S video inputs, a Coaxial input, and a separate non high definition composite input, along the side and bottom of the TV. You'll never run out of inputs! The TV also has picture in picture mode, which is only active when you are in PC mode, so if you have the coaxial cable connected to an antenna or cable TV you can watch TV while using it as a PC monitor.

With the great performance of the device, you have to also mention the cool factor. Its really thin and big in all the right places, (sexy)! Its really cool to have the monitor on your desktop, and you still have space for other things, (keyboard, mouse, lamp, telephone). The flat screen frames nicely on a wall also, but I don't think I'll ever do that.

There are some draw backs however, or opportunities for improvement. While the TV displays stunning high definition content, the standard definition progamming seems to lag in picture quality in comparison to my standard definition, (regular), TV. From reading around, however, and talking to sales men, this is pretty typical of most high definition TVs. Also, turning the monitor on after cutting it off is a little tricky. You cannot use the remote control to turn the monitor off when in PC input mode. You have to go over and push the button. Same way, you can't turn it back on with the remote control after its off, (in PC mode). You can use the remote to turn it on when in HDTV or any of the other modes, but sometimes it takes a while for the monitor to warm up after it has been off for a while, (say over night). I end up turning it on and off a couple of times before it gets fire and ready to go. I typically hear the sound before I the picture comes on. The sound quailty is good, and adequate, but I wouldn't say its spectacular. For my bedroom, I'm not really looking to blast anything, however, so this isn't a real big issue for me. Most people who have a HDTV hook it up to a home theater system so they can enjoy the sourround sound associated with high def. broad casts, and maybe I'll do the same one day. On top of that, the only other thing is that the TV does not have a built in HDTV tuner, which doesn't allow you to watch over the air broadcasts in stunning high definition without a separte HDTV tuner, high definition cable set top box, or High definition stalite reciever. But the monitor doesn't advertise itself as having that either it only states its a HDTV monitor.

All things considered, its an excellent product, I'd buy another one, but my current Standard Definition TV in my living room is performing just fine. The TV performed equally if not even more impressively as a High Definition TV as it does a PC monitor. The many inputs also offer future uses if it interests me some day. I'm so impressed with the HDTV that I'm thinking of buying the company's 15 in. HDTV or 17 in. monitor so that I can have a smaller TV in addition to the Standard Definition one in my living room. The 15 in. monitor that Magnavox offers has not faired as well with the customer reviews, however, but the Phillips model has gotten good ratings.

I will say, this was easily the best purchase I've made in a while and I'm truly satified with the product!

Quality and value.......2006-06-24

I was a bit wary about jumping up to HDTV, especially with the suspicously large mark down on this one. The picture quality is as advertised, and I've had very few problems. (Once I turned it one, and I had no picture. I turned it off, waited five seconds, put it back on, and everything was fine.)

One of the better features is the fact the inputs are either on the bottome (above the base) or inset on the back of the TV. Why is that such a big deal? The neat thing about flat screens is they can be wall mounted. Most HDTV's have to be hung at odd angles because their input plugs are directly on the back. The 26MF605W can be hung flush against the wall!

Compared to a lot of other HDTV's, this Magnavox is relatively small. Still, it's a good starter for the price or smaller rooms.

Sony DVP-NS415S ~ Great Connectivity Solution.......2002-12-10

Greetings,

Here is a quick positive review on Sony's DVP-NS415S. I've owned this player for a month and I also have a DVP-NS315 setup now for over 3 months.

1. CONNECTIVITY SOLUTION. This player has a particularly nice option that I haven't seen on other entry level players: passive A/V inputs. This is the main reason why I purchased this dvp. I use it on a small 20" sony bedroom tv that only has 1 set of inputs. This allows me to daisy-chain my VCR and DSS.

2. GREAT FUNCTIONALITY. I find this player to have that Sony level of congruity that I enjoy. MP3s have a nice menu and are easy to play, you have multiple choices for DVD video quality, and it can play a well-worn DVD without a problem.

The only cavaet I should tell you is that this is an 'entry-level' player only... meaning that you will not have a very robust suite of digital input/output options nor Progressive Scan capability as with another higher-priced unit.

I recommend this entry-level player for TV's with only 1 set of inputs.

Product Description

Toshiba's 32A60 is a 32-inch TV with a high-contrast picture tube and a 3-line digital comb filter. It also sports a wideband video amplifier, a black-level expander and selectable color temperature. The dual-tuner picture-in-picture (PIP) function even lets you view six channels at once. The 32A60 offers a number of connectivity options, including a set of component video inputs, which are ideal for hookup to similarly equipped DVD players. There's also an S-video input, two A/V inputs and one set of A/V outputs. You can label the video inputs according to the connected devices. A video lock feature, meanwhile, lets you prevent usage of any connected components, which is a good way to keep the kiddies from playing video games. This TV includes an MTS stereo/SAP tuner. Its front-firing speakers are driven by five watts of power per channel. The speakers can also simulate surround sound. The 32A60 also has several convenience features, including closed captioning, channel lock and timer shutoff. The supplied universal remote control glows in the dark.

Amazon.com Product Description

With a 32-inch, high-contrast screen, the Toshiba 32A60 retains an image's richness and contrast even under bright lights. The 750-line resolution and three-line digital comb filter also contribute to finer detail and brighter colors. The 32A60's picture-in-picture permits viewing of two channels simultaneously, and a six-panel preview gives a quick snapshot of up to six broadcast shows.

The 32A60's built-in, 10-watt, front-firing speakers deliver MTS stereo sound, and audio-video connections allow you hook it up to a home theater or audio system. The 32A60 comes with a universal remote control with glow-in-the-dark keys.

Toshiba provides a one-year warranty on parts (two years on the picture tube) and one year on labor for the 32A60.

Great TV.......2004-05-24

I purchase mine at Best Buy when it was the top of the line 32 inch. I paid almost a $1,000 for it. I've had it for over 3 yrs now and I have not had a problem.

I purhased a nice Pioneer receiver, Toshiba 5 disk DVD changer and a pair of JBL speakers. The sound is excellent.

Most TV's speaker on their on are not the best anyway. I don't know anyone today who uses just the TV's speakers. But purchase a quality receiver and some nice surround sound speakers and you have once nice system.

The picture quality is excellent. I will always purchase Toshiba TV's. They rank the best in my book.

Very Nice but..........2001-02-05

I have only owned this TV for a few hours but boy am I impressed. The picture is INCREDIBLE. (Somehow very important) I have not even messed with the different modes yet, as in sports/movie, warm/cool settings etc.. It,s Toshiba's top of the line 32" and it shows. The duel tuner, six pic PIP is VERY kewl. The remote is easy and functional. The ONLY reason I didn't score this a five star is it's sound. It sounds a little tinny and the surround sound doesn't do much at all. Mine is hooked up to my stereo though so it's audio deficiencies are nill. If quality video is you, this TV does it. I'm a picky shopper and shopped the net and feature for feature, price for price,I am very happy with my purchase. I hope this helps.

Excellent picture but---.......2001-01-23

At Best Buy I compared this set to 2 JVC's, 2 Sony's, and one other Toshiba--all sitting together--all on the same program. They were all VG--but the Toshiba's did have a slight edge in picture sharpness/clarity. HOWEVER--there are some negatives. 1)The simulated surround sound mode is terrible--tinney/echoey and somewhat distorted. I switched it off. 2)Lack of a variable audio output is a BIG BOOOOO. I must use a separate remote to control the volume of my receiver. 3)It does not have "sound leveling" even though the salesman assured me it did. 3)You cannot turn closed captioning off even though the owners booklet says you can--frustrating!! In spite of these complaints, I will keep it for 2 reasons: 1)GREAT picture. 2) Far too much hassle to re-box and return---but I did give that serious consideration. It's probably a case of "you get what you pay for"... Had I been able to determine these deficiences BEFORE I brought it home and set it up--I probably would have come up with a few more hundred dollars and gotten a set not lacking the features I mentioned and with a better sound system. ...

Quality Television.......2000-11-15

Just received this television and I am impressed. The picture is wonderful (especially with DVD) and the audio is an improvement. Also, I like the PIP and the fact that the standard warranty is 1 year parts and labor, just in case there is a problem.

DO NOT BUY.......2003-09-18

These cartridges are junk. My Epson printer can't recognize the magenta cartridge, so I'm unable to print at all.
I bought the cartridges to have on hand, and since I didn't need them for several months, I am unable to return them due to Amazons 30 day return policy.
Save yourself the frustration, spend the extra money and buy the real things.
