LG 55LH90 55-Inch 1080p 240Hz LED Backlit LCD HDTV, Glossy Black/Infused Blue Top Quality Monday, December 7, 2009

I have looked at so many LCD & DLP televisions over the last year that my brain was becoming scrambled. I finally was ready to replace my 10 year old Hitachi 53" in the huge monster black cabinet and wanted to make sure that that I was making the right choice of which new HD to buy. All the store employees knew me by name because I had been in so many times looking. I had pretty much settled on a Samsung 55" and had even considered a 73" DLP because of the bang for the buck in size. I was in Fry's and sales rep came up to me and said I have the deal for you. He told me about the LG55LH90 with 240Hz and the high rating it had received on C-NET. He said they only had one in stock in the back room and that The LG rep had just been there and they had been authorized to offer it at a promo price of $1799.00 plus a free LG Blu-ray player. I was a little leary because I was not that familiar with LG brand. I asked if I could think about it and come back next day and he said that price was a one time promo and he guaranteed I would love the TV. Boy was he right! This TV has the most awesome picture I have ever seen. I watch the same old TV shows that I have been watching for years and never knew how they should really look in HD. It's like looking out a window, and sports, you feel as though you can reach out and touch the grass blades on the football field. Movies with the THX are unreal. As for the lip-sync issues I've read about I have none. I went online and bought Monster M1000 HDMI cables for $24.00 each instead of the $199.00 you pay in stores and have hooked up to Time Warner HD-DVR box and sound is perfect. So I guess cables do make a difference. I am very,very happy I went with this TV and especially at the price I paid as the prices now are anywhere from $2500 to $2900. But at any price it out performs any other TV I have seen and the matte screen eliminates most all glare in a bright room. If your looking for a great LED that will not be outdated in 6 months you will not be unhappy with this one.Get more detail about LG 55LH90 55-Inch 1080p 240Hz LED Backlit LCD HDTV, Glossy Black/Infused Blue.
