This is a more common problem than many think but if you roll the dice ..." Read Full Review »

"Excellent 52" LCD TV. I've had my eye on this particular model since it first came out in 2007. Amazing picture, makes regular DVD even look better without having to upgrade to Bluray player. Price was way to good to pass up.[...] Thanks again Abe's of Maine ! "
