Advantages: Great sound and vision

Disadvantages: Hard to transport

I recently bought this Television after a lot of searching. My main aim was to get a home cinema style set up. Looking at the main aspects

Quality of Picture
==================

With modern technology I don't think that there is a huge amount of difference in picture quality between one manufacturer and another. If you are watching a DVD the quality will be excellent and if you are in a poor reception area the picture will be poor. Having said that the picture on this set is excellent and I have no complaints at all.

Quality of Sound
================

This was the main thing I was looking for. As I have sad above the picture quality is already there so the sound quality was the main difference. When I spoke to a few experts on this they said to go with Panasonic as there sound system is made by Technics who are a leader in the audio field. Most other manufacturers produce their own speakers and I was told that they are never up to the quality of Panasonic/Technics. The sound system is Dolby Pro Logic. I have found this more than sufficient for a living room. Many people have said that Dolby Digital is far superior but I found the additional cost hard to justify.

Ease of Set Up
==============

There was a free stand, which was very useful as the Television is quite large. Assembly of this was surprisingly simple. I am in no way a DIY expert but managed to construct this in 30 mins with the help of a friend. Swearing was kept to a minimum so that explains how easy this process was.

The actual television tunes itself into all available channels. It is a simple matter of switching it on and away you go.

Summary
=======

In summary I would definitely recommend this television, especially if you are going to be using it for watching DVD's. A word of warning, the boxes are huge and a large car is a necessity for bringing the set home.
