Samsung DVD-C350 DVD Player (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This newly developed Samsung DVD is an unbelievably great DVD for only $35.00 including taxes and delivery. I was looking for the newest DVD players at a good price. My problem was there was not one review on this DVD player.
Great upconverting picture, sound, fast loading, reads and plays really bad discs that would skip or freeze on my old dvd/vcr player. Plays burned DVDs with no problems. Very easy to set up and hook up.
I bought this as a replacement for a refurbished Toshiba DVD player that only lasted 15 mos. I have used this DVD player for 1 day. The only problem is an incredibly small remote which is hard to read if you need reading glasses and no hdmi port.

Cables To Go 27909 18 AWG Universal Right Angle Power Cord IEC320C13R to NEMA 5-15P, Black (10 Feet/3.04 Meters) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Admittedly, I feel a little silly reviewing a power cord, but, being a New York City resident, any space gains are welcome. What this means with a power cord angled to the side is that you can place peripherals closer to the wall.
So, in my case, I could place my EPSON multifunction closer to the wall -- by about an inch. That may not sound like a lot, but considering the multifunction is about 20" wide, it's a 20 square inch gain in space. It also means that the power cord isn't mangled and jammed against the wall.
Overall, happy with the product.

Mitsubishi Diamond Series WD-73838 73-Inch 1080p 3D DLP HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I worked as a quality tester for the doomed Cablevision VOOM HD project in the early days of HDTV. Plus I've owned three other HDTVs (2 DLP and 1 LCD) since then, so i have a base to compare - not my first experience with Hi-Def TV.
This Mitsubishi WD-73838 is a monster compared to my old 50 inch Samsung (see pic). The overall picture on this set is excellent, but i would not say that the picture quality is THAT much better than my 3-year old Samsung HL-T5076S (also 3D capable). Back then, it was a very good set for picture quality and even today it can still hang with the best of them. I paid ~$1300 for the Samsung three years ago and ~$1700 before tax/delivery for the 73" Mitsu just last week @ Electronics Expo. The price was great!! And definitely worth it just for the sheer size of the screen - a very good upgrade.
The sound on this unit is pretty good, with all those speakers... but lets face it - if you are buying a huge home theater TV, you probably already own a good 7.1 AVR that supports all the surround sound HD formats. And if you dont - you should.
3D quality (updated below): For now, my experience on this TV with 3D content is limited to Motorsport 3D game for the PS3. But even in 720p and scaled down for 3D it looks excellent. Looking forward to seeing some of the 3D BD movies soon in higher 1080p.
For 3D you WILL need the 3DA1 adapter for any 3D source that doesn't support checkerboard or side by side formats (see update #2 below!). Also, know that x102 DLP Link glasses are cheaper and will work well, but there is a known issue with them - they seem to lose the link to the TV if you are too far or the bulb is not bright enough. At 10 feet they start to flicker on and off, at 12 feet it's very hard to maintain the link. They also have a proprietary battery and rape you on shipping charges, so that may be an issue for some folks.
Read up on HDTV and 3D before you buy!!! know all the options, formats and downsides!!! avsforums . com is an excellent source of info on the subject.
As far as what other users report about 30-60 sec boot up times.... I guess it's true if the TV power is controlled by the cable box or if you turn the TV on for the first time after there was a (brief) power outage. If the TV is plugged into a wall jack (not into the cable box that controls the power supply to the TV set) meaning the TV still gets some power even when it's shut off, then it takes about 10-15 seconds to boot up. Remember this is a projection TV and a sophisticated one at that, just like a computer it takes time to boot up. After i plugged the TV into a wall outlet, in my experience the boot times have been very short.
UPDATE #1 (Nov 2010): Well, after several months of ownership i am even more happy with this TV. Regular picture is still amazing, watching Great Migrations on NatGeo HD is simply incredible. The 3D is very sharp and there is no ghosting. The best glasses i was able to find were the viewsonics and optomas (they seem to be identical) right here on amazon. @ ~85 bucks a pair you can get several pairs for the friends and family. Some of the deepest and amazing 3D picture and effects i've were on IMAX: Deep Sea, Disney's A Christmas Carol and IMAX: Grand Canyon Adventure (even though this one was not pretty boring)
UPDATE #2 (Dec 2010): Make sure you update the TV firmware (available on the Mitsubishi site)! Eliminates the need for the 3D adapter, adds support for all the 1.4a required 3D formats.

Samsung DVD-V9800 Tunerless 1080p Upconverting VHS Combo DVD Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Everything written about this unit in the other reviews is accurate. The combo player/recorder is an excellent example of a dying breed, is well crafted, and (I presume) performs to expectations. So why only 3 stars? Because no where in the description was the most important factor, that the V9800 is TUNERLESS. It must be used with another tuner source...like a set top box. Interestingly, I get cable from Time Warner through regular, in the wall, coax and all three of my HDTV's (Sony Bravia and 2 Sharps) have provisions for coax input. With separate DVD players and "traditional" VCR's this is no problem. Unfortunately I have not found any of the current combo players accepting of coax input for the VCR.
If you receive cable through a set top box this unit would be fine, and for under a $100 represents a nice value for the quality of build. My real gripe is with amazon for not being more diligent in spec'ing technical products that they sell. So 5 stars for Samsung and 0 stars for the amazonians!

Samsung LN22B360 22-Inch 720p LCD HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I originally bought the LN22B350, the latest unit in this series, but had to return it. You can read my review on it, but in short, it was because despite the literature stating that it has one composite AND one component input, it actually should read one composite OR one component. You could only use one or the other because they share the video input jack. So, after viewing an actual image of the input panel on this unit, I took a baby step back and ordered the B360.
Wait a minute! Amazon gave me a backhanded "upgrade" by erroneously shipping the LN22A450. The 4 series is better than the 3 series, but the A series is older than the B series. They were willing to let me keep it, but after doing a little bit of research I found that the technology has leapt forward since it was made. Among other things, it had only a 3000:1 contrast ratio whereas this one has 15,000:1. These days there's little difference between the massive numbers spun out by manufacturers unless you're in a high tech calibration setting, but when you talking one that low, it's not a good thing. So, one more swap and I got the LN22B360.
I really like this set. Unless you're an audiophile, there's not a single thing wrong with the sound. There are different settings and a bit of an equalizer to customize, and at the level of 44, the volume is excellent. People just need to understand that no manufacturer is going to put high end audio in a unit at this price point. The 22-inch set is not the one you want to pay $500 for, or should need that kind of audio. You're not going to get a lot of the bells and whistles you get with the bigger sets because that's not what people are using their small TVs for.
So after one that was too new for my old equipment, and one that was too old for the new technology, this one is just right. I chose Samsung for the on/off timer, of which this unit has three, and the options there are better than expected--select all days, weekdays, weekends, etc. The set-up was easy, the remote balanced (though no back light), buttons are a good size and arranged fairly intelligently. The smaller screen makes the 720p and 60hz non-issues. Since I don't pay for premium services, it was nice to see several channels airing in HD without a converter box. And on the down-low, I'm getting intermittent On Demand broadcasts, though I do wish whoever ordered them would take fewer potty breaks. Too much pausing and rewind. LOL!
I'm very satisfied with this purchase and hope to buy its big brother (46") in the future after I'm sure Samsung is the way to go (and I think it is).
UPDATE 12/22/09 -- Just wanted to add that I'm still liking this TV. It completely meets my needs and expectations, although the On Demand feed stopped, darn it!

One of the most important features for an LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to the amount of time it takes a pixel to "refresh" itself to go from being active to being inactive, (ready to be re-activated). The lower the milliseconds, the faster the response time. A very fast 8ms gives you smooth-motion action scenes.

Whereas blue and green shaded areas of the picture are washed out on conventional screens, wide color enhancer lets you experience more brilliant colors. Simply imagine a wider range of colors than you ever thought possible.

Panasonic TC-P50C2 50-Inch 720p Plasma HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this TV almost a week and like it more everyday.
Bought it from Best Buy for $680 with free delivery and set up.
When the delivery guys set it up, thye told me that in order to get
the picture that I saw in the showroom, that I had to switch out
my Direct TV receiver and dish to HD. Called Direct TV and had the HD
dish and receiver installed. Boy, what a difference. I can't get
over how great the picture is, and you can't beat the price. I played
BB against HHGregg, and they both fell over each other trying to get the sale.
It listed for $800 at both places, but I got it for $680. I've read about
buzzing noise complaints, but I have not had this problem. This is the 2010
version of this model. I'm a happy camper.
