If you're looking for a great deal on a reliable, well-built HDTV, the Toshiba 32AV500U gives you plenty of reasons to skip the no-name brands. Every Toshiba flat-panel TV starts with a CineSpeed™ LCD panel, which consistently receives high marks from reviewers for smooth motion handling and wide viewing angles. The glossy black bezel adds a touch of elegance that's unexpected in this price range.
Crisp, clear HD reception is only the beginning
The 32AV500U gives you so many ways to enjoy a great picture. Its built-in tuners pull in all types of local over-the-air broadcasts, from ordinary analog to digital high-definition (antenna required). And a built-in "QAM" tuner lets cable TV subscribers watch unscrambled channels — including your local network HD channels in most areas — without the added hassle and expense of a set-top box.
All your video sources receive the star treatment
Even after local TV stations complete their transition to digital broadcasting in 2009, many viewers will continue to watch analog and other lower-resolution signals — from non-HD sources like VCRs, camcorders and video game consoles. Toshiba's video processing circuitry does a great job of cleaning up these signals. Also, the DynaLight dynamic backlight control monitors the brightness level of each video frame and automatically adjusts backlight intensity to maximize picture contrast.
Versatile, future-ready connections
The 32AV500U's audio/video connections include two HDMI digital inputs for connecting the growing number of HDMI-equipped components (Blu-ray players, HD cable and satellite receivers, etc.). A standard computer input makes it easy to connect your laptop PC so you can have a bigger view for working, gaming or web-surfing.
