  • Insignia NS-30HTV, Televisions The Insignia NS-30HTV is among the least expensive HDTVs available, costing less than even smaller-screen LCD models. Picture quality falls short of more expensive options, but still is substantially better to most people than standard definition. The Insignia NS-30HTV's video processing is smooth, and it does a good job removing artifacts such as jagged lines. The menu system is easy to use, according to reviews.
  • JVC AV-32F577, Televisions The 32-inch JVC AV32F577 is one the better 32-inch TVs available from a major manufacturer, and is somewhat of a value considering its performance. The picture quality is generally good, and the JVC AV32F577 has a flat picture tube to minimize glare and reflections. The basic electronic programming guide can be useful for those who don't subscribe to cable or satellite TV. The digital tuner means this TV won't become obsolete when analog broadcasting ends, and QAM compatibility means the JVC AV32F577 can receive unscrambled digital cable TV signals without a box.
  • Samsung SlimFit TX-S2782H, Televisions The slim form factor of Samsung SlimFit TVs has won over consumers, who have made this line the top seller among tube-type HDTVs. At 16.5 inches deep, the Samsung TX-S2782H isn't that much deeper than a stand-mounted LCD flat-panel television, and the SlimFit line outperforms LCD technology in some important ways. These include the ability to produce inky, realistic blacks, and faster response times (with no blurring) when playing games or watching fast-motion video. The Samsung TX-S2782H is also rich in features, with two HDMI connections, Digital Dynamic SRS TruSurround (which creates the illusion of surround sound using just two speakers), reverse 3:2 pull down, and more.
  • Samsung SlimFit TX-T3093WH, Televisions The innovative SlimFit design featured on the 30-inch Samsung TX-T3093WH reduces cabinet depth to just 16.3 inches, which is not much deeper than a stand-mounted LCD TV of the same screen size. The feature set is pretty good, with two HDMI connections, SRS TruSurround XT (which lets the set create the illusion of surround sound from just two speakers), a 20-watt stereo with graphic equalizer, reverse 3:2 pulldown and more. Colors are accurate and black levels are deep and cinematic. The Samsung TX-T3093W can receive and display HDTV signals, and the digital tuner means the set won't become obsolete when analog broadcasting ends in 2009.

    • Good value
    • Largest standard-definition TV available

    • QAM-compatible digital tuner
  • Sony KD-27FS170, Televisions Reviewers and owners say that Sony FD Trinitron WEGA TVs, including the 27-inch KD-27FS170, have the best picture quality of any CRT televisions. The Sony KD-27FS170's 16:9 enhanced mode (which displays the full vertical resolution of anamorphic, enhanced-for-widescreen DVDs) has also earned praise. The Sony TV includes a QAM-compatible digital tuner, which means users can receive over-the-air and cable digital TV transmissions, including unscrambled HDTV broadcasts. However, HDTV broadcasts will be displayed in standard 480i resolution rather than high definition. Unlike some less-expensive models, the Sony KD-27FS170 has a flat picture tube to minimize glare.
  • Sony KD-34XBR970, Televisions Reviewers say the biggest reason to go with a direct-view CRT is its ability to produce deep, natural blacks and shadow detail -- which remain a challenge for all other TV technologies. Among current CRTs, the Sony FD Trinitron WEGA flat-screen CRT used in the KV-34XBR970 has an almost unbeatable reputation. Sound & Vision magazine notes that the CRT offers "razor-sharp detail" and clearly beats other models in picture quality. But the Sony KV-34XBR970's strengths go beyond its picture tube. The set is also packed with features, including an HDMI input, a QAM-compatible tuner (for watching non-subscription cable HDTV programming), DRC (Digital Reality Creation) signal processing for better standard-definition performance, reverse 3:2 pull down, an extensive menu of adjustments and viewing modes, and a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
  • Sony KD-36FS170, Televisions The Sony KD-36FS170 is big, with largest CRT screen size (36 inches) currently available. In addition, this set uses Sony's FD Trinitron WEGA picture tube, which has long enjoyed an excellent reputation and is visually flat to minimize glare. The Sony KD-36FS170's 16:9 enhanced mode, which shows the full vertical resolution of anamorphic, enhanced-for-wide-screen DVDs, is said to work well. This TV includes a QAM-compatible digital tuner, which means it can receive over-the-air and cable digital TV, including unscrambled HDTV broadcasts. However, HDTV broadcasts will be displayed in standard 480i resolution --not high definition.
  • Sony WEGA KD-32FS170, Televisions Reviews say the 32-inch Sony KD-32FS170 has superior picture quality. The Sony TV's 16:9 enhanced mode, which displays the full vertical resolution of anamorphic, enhanced-for-wide-screen DVDs, has earned kudos as well. Owners also like that the Sony KD-32FS170 includes a digital tuner, which means users can receive over-the-air and cable digital TV, including unscrambled HDTV broadcasts. Also, unlike many less-expensive models, the Sony KD-32FS170 has a flat picture tube to minimize glare.
  • Toshiba 27D47, Televisions The Toshiba 27D47 is inexpensive for a name-brand TV, and while picture quality isn't the best, reviews say it's still just fine for most families. The sound system is good, and there are enough inputs and outputs to use the Toshiba TV as the anchor for a home-theater setup.
  • Toshiba 32D46, Televisions The Toshiba 32D46 is one of the least expensive big-screen TVs available from a major manufacturer. Reviews say that this model's picture quality falls short of higher-ranked standard- definition sets such as the Sony KD-32FS170, but that overall, image quality is still pretty good. The Toshiba 32D46's sound system is also described as good, but not spectacular. However, reviewers say the StableSound feature -- which evens out sound levels between programming and commercials-- works well. The Toshiba 32D46 has limited connectivity, but there are enough inputs and outputs -- including a fixed-level audio output – to integrate it into a home-entertainment system.
  • Toshiba 32D47, Televisions The Toshiba 32D47 is one the least expensive 32-inch TVs available from a major manufacturer. While the picture quality falls short of that of higher ranked standard definition sets, it is stil good overall. The sound system is good overall, and owners like the StableSound feature, -- which evens out sound levels to combat too-loud commercials. There are enough inputs and outputs to make it easy to integrate the Toshiba TV into a home entertainment system.
  • Toshiba 32DF46, Televisions The Toshiba 32DF46 is a full-featured set at a relatively inexpensive price. It uses Toshiba's FST picture tube, which is flat to reduce glare. Reviews also like Toshiba's StableSound, which evens out sound levels to combat too-loud commercials. Connectivity is good, but not exceptional, and includes front A/V inputs for connecting a camcorder without trying to reach behind the TV. The digital tuner is QAM compatible for watching unscrambled HDTV programming on a cable-TV system, and can receive HDTV signals over the air with an antenna; however, since the 32DF46 is not an HDTV, all programming is displayed in standard definition (480i).
