    Is Sylvannia a top brand now? I paid $750 for a Sharp a couple of weeks ago. Waiting for tinman's opinion. :D ;)

    I'm thinking I'll be able to get that after Christmas and on into January for $400-$500.

    My parents have a Sony Bravia and compared to my el cheapo the only difference I notice is the electronics/inputs/menus.

    All the screens are made by the same people.

    That set does have HDMI - it's just not in the same group as the other video input screenshot.

    Lightbulbs are why I've heard of them.

    That being said, my LCD is a Polaroid. :eek:

    seems like you could've done a lot better than sylvania, especially when manufacturers like sony and sharp and pioneer are selling for comparitive prices.

    but who knows, maybe sylvania makes a decent tv

    absolutely bad.

    here's a hint, if the first thing you think of when the hear the company's name is not tvs, don't buy their tvs.

    good luck with the brand. you could find a much better tv in that price range if you did a little more research.
