REVIEW
Have only had this TV for a few days but up till now have found it to be quite good. Some people say it can't be a very good TV for the price, must be cheap and nasty. As far as I have found in the few days I have used it, this is not the case. Reading the reviews before deciding to purchase I noticed that someone said the sound was 'very tinny'. I am wondering whether the location adversely affects the sound as I found it to be exactly the opposite. My TV is set back in an alcove and I found that I had to give it more treble as the sound was very heavy. I wasn't bothered about the reviews regarding the sound because I have a home cinema system which I was intending to connect to eventually but because of the settings in the TV I might not do this now. I have had the TV for a couple of months now and I am really pleased with it. Just a couple of minor niggles though. When the set is switched off the settings for the 3d and also the time go back to the default and need to be reset next time you switch on. Although this is not a problem it can be frustrating. Does anyone know if there is a way to save these settings and if so how? I cannot find any mention in the manual regarding this.
