Eddie "CanMan" (Seattle) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Samsung LN32D403 32-Inch 720p 60Hz LCD HDTV (Black) (Electronics) About a year ago I bought the 22 inch version of this TV and was very impressed with the picture - better than a new Sony my dad has. The sound was not important because I have it hooked up to my stereo. The 32 inch one I just bought is in the living room and not hooked to a stereo - sound is OK at best. Picture is brilliant. 5 stars for the picture, 3 for the sound. And now the bad part - the stand is pitiful, it wobbles and leans and is simply not substantial enough for the TV. I had to prop up the left side with a book and a coaster to get the thing to stay level. The TV is set up in a wall cabinet, so it does not get bumped and I can live with the book propping it up, but I'm telling you the stand is practically worthless. The stand gets '0' stars. But since the picture is fantastic, and you might be buying it for wall mount and hooking to your stereo, these issues can be marginal for you. 27 of 27 people found the following review helpful  Good TV for sane price, This review is from: Samsung LN32D403 32-Inch 720p 60Hz LCD HDTV (Black) (Electronics) I bought this set a few years ago (forgot to write a review on it) and it has stood the test of time. I've had no trouble with it in any sense save for a couple times the speakers acted up. To be completely honest, I'm not sure if there's an official term for when speakers output a static, distorted sound when a particular sound/pitch is played through them. Regardless, this happened a couple times.I haven't had this problem in quite some time so let me talk about why this is a decent set. If you're not looking for something obnoxiously large or high-end, this 32-inch is great, especially if you use it for gaming (like I do) and sit less than 8 feet away. The menus are easily navigated, the remote is nice and I haven't had any trouble with stability. It swivels about 25-30 degrees in both directions and has plenty of inputs (HDMI, Component, VGA, etc.) for all of today's technology. Don't be fooled by others reviews. For the price I paid, the quality is good,...

I originally purchased a Hanspree and the sound was horrible. The sound on this set is great, one of the best I have heard in a panel, and gets better with a little tweaking.As for the stand: A lot of reviews say the stand his flimsy or horrible, and all I can say to those is that it sounds like they didn't put it together correctly or read the directions. I was hesitant to buy it because of those reviews, but they aren't true. There are 2 screw holes that can be missed if not paying attention. I believe there are 6 screws total, and if done correctly it is very sturdy. DO NOT be worried about the stand and enjoy a Samsung quality TV for under $300. We are! |
