Summary: Panasonic 34" HDTV 16:9 Wide Screen
Review: Great picture, many features and a multitude of color adjustments possible.

This is a very heavy TV, pricy, but if you can afford this is the unit you want.

The wide screen is what seperates this unit from the rest plus it's size doesn't dominate a room but it's 34" picture is large enough even in my 20'x14'room.

The 1080I format seems to be where the industry is heading with CBS being the first major network now transmitting exclusivly in this format.

If you want to be the first on the block with a HDTV, this is the one you want.

Summary: Phenominal picture - shop for best price
Review: I bought the Panasonic CT34WX50. I love it. The wife thinks its a phenominal picture, but that we should have bought a bigger set.

This set makes cable television images look smooth - no lines, DVDs are breathtaking, and Over The Air true HighDef sources are absolutely awesome (with SIR-T150 Digital TV receiver). Wife and I just keep saying "wow...wow...wow" with every scene change.

Summary: in absolute awe
Review: I purchased this TV 2 weeks ago and the joy hasn't warn off yet. The picture is breathtaking and I think more highly of this TV with every new DVD I watch. The first DVD I watched was the SuperBit version of The Fifth Element. All I can say is that it was money well spent. Truly a videophile's TV. You won't be disappointed.

Summary: The best tube TV out there!
Review: I was going to buy a home theatre, but i didn't have a very big room, so I couldn't fit a projection TV in there without it looking very good since I would be sitting very close to it. I thought my chances of having a home theatre were slim to none, because there arent very many widescreen(16:9) tube TVs out there. So I went into an electronics store that my friend owned, and his brother was the specialist for home theatre-type equipment and installing them. I explained my situation, and he said this is the one of the cheapest widescreen tubes out there, and in his and most everyone's opinion the best picture quality out of all of them(without going into the plasma catagory). And he was right. I was amazed by the picture quality, and it was beyond anything I have ever seen before. And I got a home theatre package from sony which was a progressive scan DVD player and had Dolby Digital/DTS decoders on it, and has 1 optical and digital coaxial inputs on it, which is great for digital cable(for coaxial) and HDTV(for optical). And it has great sound coming out of all 5 speakers and it is amazing when combined with this TV. I have to say this is the best.

Summary: Awesome picture quality, great price
Review: I was in the store, looking for TVs, and stumbled upon this one. The picture quality was one of the best I've seen--including the Sony's that were on display also. I am going to pick it up this week, I talked to other people about it, and they also loved this television. Basically, for me, the deciding factor was picture quality, and price. This was by far the cheapest (...), and the picture quality was on par with a Sony (...). If you MUST have the widescreen (16:9 aspect ratio), in a non-rear projection package--as I do,--you should check this TV out at a local store... you won't be dissapointed!

Summary: Not a bargain at all
Review: The low price was tempting, and even more so the smaller footprint and poundage compared to the similar models by Sony and Toshiba. But once I viewed the Panasonic and the Sony KV-34XBR800 side by side in a showroom, playing the same DVD, it's no contest at all. Sony was sharp, clear, crisp, accurate, and properly staurated, it was radiant, truly awesome. The Panasonic on the other hand was dull and had unacceptably poor color that couldn't be adjusted for much improvement. Blonde hair tinged green, skin tones awful, darks fading out, etc. I later discovered technical reviews at cnet.com and saw that the reviewers had the same reaction. My advice, if you can't afford the Sony, then you certainly can't afford to throw away money for the inferior Panasonic - unless you are color blind that is! Whatever you do, don't buy the Panasonic without viewing it first, especially skin tones and blonde hair.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I love this TV!
Review: This was the best bang for my buck value I could find in widescreen HDTVs, without getting the super thin plasma screens. It looks really cool, and the picture is very nice. There's no HDTV in NYC, so I can't attest to how good that looks, but if you're looking for a widescreen TV, you should definitely consider this.
