Detailed info is hard to find, but it was available for store pickup so I took a chance without seeing it first since I could return it easily. I am glad I did. I cannot imagine a better picture. Observations:
Container is 56-1/2" x 40" x 21" with 2 hand holds on each end. Two adult males handled it without much difficulty. Comes with stand attached. Clip the bands, lift the bottomless box up and put it where you want it. I did not, but plan on 3 people to wall mount it. You are not going to get home theater audio out of any unit without a subwoofer. It is simple physics. This one sounds pretty good for what it is. You can easily connect it to a home theater system with the Digital Audio Out or RCA ports. It has no separate Subwoofer Out port. I read an article that expounded on the limitations of the human eye to...Read more 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: LG 55LH40 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV, Gloss Black (Electronics) I bought this because of the great price on Amazon. I was going to wait until Christmas and get the best price on a large 52+ inch LCD or plasma but saw this model on sale at Worst Buy for just under @1500. Checked Amazon and they had it for $1418.19 and thought with free shipping and no sales tax, I was getting it for a super bargain. I was concerned about some consumer reviews I read. They all said the picture quality was fantastic, but there was a problem with the sync on the sound. I already had sound system hooked directly from my Comcast Digital Cable box so the sound sync problem never was an issue. In playing with the TV, I did try the speakers to hear how good they were and I wasn't very impressed. There is a sync problem when using the internal speakers so I just turned them off and will forever use my sounds system and get great sound. The picture quality is really great. I was watching a few of our favorite shows on the first night we had it, and...Read more 11 of 12 people found the following review helpful: By Heinz E. (Bay Area, CA USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: LG 55LH40 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV, Gloss Black (Electronics) I have had this TV for a few weeks now. Actually it is my second. The first one delivered came with the backlight not working correctly. It would turn on/off flicker all the time. I called Amazon and got referred to LG customer service. LG customer service after going through an unsuccessful over the phone troubleshoot attempt opened a case for repair. Called Amazon back, gave the LG case number, and got the TV promptly replaced (old one picked up when the new one was delivered). The new TV works great with standard and HD programing (cable), up-scaled DVD and Blue Ray content. Media PC output- connected via HDMI is equally crisp and clear. Controls are simple and intuitive, would definitely buy again. Amazon service including customer service was outstanding, easy to reach and very helpful (native English speaking support - NOT some difficult to understand, outsourced service)!! |
