Philips 30PF9946 30-Inch WideScreen HDTV-Ready LCD Flat-Panel TV

Philips 30PF9946 30-Inch WideScreen HDTV-Ready LCD Flat-Panel TV Review

I ordered and received the model off the Philips outlet store 9 - 0 discount which I consider a very good deal. The set arrived quickly and in good condition.

None of the accessories other than a stand were included (ac cord, remote control, cables and wall mount) with the original shipment. A call to Phillips customer support got a quick response that they will send the items as the become available. The ac cord arrived in two days with a packing slip stating stand and remote are back-ordered. The wall mount is not available, but I would want a tilting one if I were to wall mount.

The stand they shipped originally was for a much bigger tv.

If Philips comes thru with their promise I will remain happy.

I will echo the statements by other customers. This is not the ideal hdtv (picture, connections, etc.) but an excellent set for 0.

Its high brightness (450 cd/m3) and high contrast (400:1) ensure vivid, detailed images from any source, while integrated TV and FM radio tuners offer cable or broadcast reception of all your favorite programs.

LCD technology allows screens to be thinner and televisions to be lighter and more energy-efficient than ever before. The result is television that not only fits on a wall, but fits in places conventional televisions cannot. The 30PF9946's comes outfitted with Digital Crystal Clear technology, a suite of picture innovations including Dynamic Contrast, a comb filter, and advanced, 10-bit processing.

A feature called Active Control Plus continually adjusts picture settings at over 60 times per second for all inputs, correcting both sharpness and noise reduction, even adjusting for changes in ambient viewing light.

Audio/video inputs include a direct-digital DVI input and a VGA computer input. Onboard Dolby Virtual Surround simulates enveloping surround sound from any 2 speakers.
