Summary: Great Value, Great TV
Review: Bought at [local store] on sale for [money]. Lousy store (don't get me started) but glad I bought this TV. Set up was very easy - basically plug it in, connect the cable and VCR, and enjoy.This TV replaces a JVC that had served me well for 9 years. The picture quality on the Toshiba is excellent and the sound is just fine even without using an external amp. If I connect a DVD player to it, I'll likely also connect my stereo to it then too. Did a lot of research and exploration before picking this box. The flat panel machines are slightly nicer, but hardly worth the additional cost, and from reviews I've read, are not that reliable. Besides, those machines are extremely heavy. The JVC machines I looked at often had a distinctive background hum (reviews I saw on a variety of web sites indicate this is not an isolated matter). The Sony's just seemed overpriced for what you got. Consumer Reports gives the Toshiba a strong rating, and so far, I agree.

Summary: Good value for the bucks
Review: I bought this TV here on Amazon.com and picked it up same day at [a local store](I LOVE THAT!) If I may, here's the question you are asking yourself: Should I get a (very) expensive HDTV now, or waste some money on another regular TV, which I'll eventually replace with HDTV when the prices come down? For this price, I recommend the latter. This TV is a bullet-proof, basic TV, with a very good picture. Definitely worth the price, and I guarantee you won't have any regrets. It may not be your home-theater dream screen, but it is a great bargain with a much better than average picture. To sum it all up: Get this TV, and retire it three years from now when you buy your HDTV (at a significantly reduced price.)

Summary: I did a lot of research, and this TV ranks very high....
Review: I did a lot of research, and this TV ranks very high for the price. I had a SHARP 27 inch TV, with component hook ups, which was nice, but was kinda cheap. So, then I bought a nice flat 27 inch SONY, which was higher quality, but didn't have component hook ups, so it kinda evened out. All I'm really into is games (PS2 games that is) and I really wanted component hook ups. So, I didn't have that much money, and I really wanted to go up to a 32 inch. So, after looking at many reviews from consumer reports.com and other sites, I found that for the money, this is probably the best 32 inch TV you can buy. Even though having a flat screen would be a little nicer, in my opinion, flat screen is kinda over rated (I'm not talking about plasma screens). From what I've read, a flat screen MAINLY just helps with reducing glare, which is not a problem for me. This TV sends out a very high quality picture when hooked up with Monster Component cables and the PS2. I haven't really tested the sound because I use my amp. UPS:
-excellent picture quality when paired with monster component cables
-affordable DOWNS:
-not a whole lot of connections in the back (only 1 s-video, 1 component, and 2 composite, but if you use the s-video, it takes up a composite, and if you also use component, it takes up the other composite. Essentially only 3 inputs in the back total, which includes the antanna connection).
-no front connection, which doesn't matter to me I looked at alot of TVs, and unless you get a refurbished TV, you won't find a better one ...

Summary: Another fine product from Toshiba
Review: I purchased the Toshiba 32A41 32 inch tv three weeks ago to replace a 12 year old, 20 inch Toshiba tv. My 20 year old 13 inch Toshiba tv is still going strong! Toshiba has another winner. This tv has a beautiful, clear picture, great sound and an easy to use remote control. I have it hooked up to a Toshiba (what else?) dvd player. What a combination! I unfailingly recommend the Toshiba 32A41.

Summary: strong picture - good price
Review: In January I ordered a JVC 27D302. This is a decent set for the money (see my review.) But by March I had to admit I was not satisfied. Above all, I had settled for a 27 inch set when I had really wanted a 32 inch. So I swallowed real hard, sent the JVC to the back bedroom, and ordered this Toshiba. I love its picture quality. It is both bright and rich. I would call it 'strong' or 'bold' compared to other sets I have had (including the JVC.) Transient room lighting from lamps does not seem to cause as much annoyance or reflection with this tv as I have experienced with others. The sound is also better than I would have expected. Though I generally listen through my stereo system, the Toshiba's onboard speakers provide good enough 'bread and butter' sound for everday viewing. Also, unlike the JVC, this set has a very low level of hum. I have only a few caveats to the potential buyer. 1). This set has more sensitivity to magnetic interference from speakers than my other units have had. I have moved my (unshielded) speakers farther away, but only after getting some fairly nasty 'staining' which I will need to degauss. 2). You have only two 'video' inputs (svideo/RCA and component/RCA) and an RF jack. So if you use a video input for a satellite dish you have only one high quality input left for a VCR or DVD player, not both. This leaves you with the necessity of using 'creative connections' -- which usually means routing your satellite dish signal through the VCR. I did this with no apparent loss of picture quality, though I would have preferred a direct svideo connection rather than the indirect RCA plugs. Of course, if you have only cable using an RF connection, you will still have both video connections available. 3). The remote control will not operate a DVD player or satellite receiver. 4). The audio outputs are not variable, so you can't control your system amp volume via the tv's remote control. But on the essential criteria by which a tv set is measured -- picture quality -- this set is wonderful. Mated to the superior signals of a satellite receiver or DVD player the Toshiba 32A41 gives outstanding results.
