Toshiba 40RV525R 40-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV Reviews
This product is superior to more expensive sets. I would advice using HDMI connectors for each of the equipment attached to the TV

The tv is terrific! No complaints. Shipping Service was very fast and the delivery person was outstanding.

I bought the Toshiba to replace a Sharp LC37D6U that had a defective sound card.
It was very easy to set up right out of the box, great picture and compatible w my Cox DVR.
So far a very positive experience. Recommend the product

If you are, like I was, looking for a 40″-42″ flat screen television for a secondary room (bedroom/den) then this Toshiba is worthy of consideration. The picture quality is very good, its digital tuner is sensitive (ie, brings in lots of stations), and its priced very competitively. My only complaints are:
- you will need to fiddle plenty with the color controls to get something that looks decent. Out of the box I found flesh tones looked very orange-y.
- the audio is fairly weak. Hooking the system up to a stereo/av receiver is almost a necessity.
So when price is considered this Toshiba unit is very good. Take price out of the equation and it is only fair/good. Buying this for a secondary room makes perfect sense.
