Review 1 of 4

Price Paid:  $1520.00 from buy.com

Summary:
Great monitor while it works. Has a very short lifespan. My first monitor went bad in less the a year. The replacement monitor went bad within four months. If you live within driving distance to the service center in southern California, maybe this isn''''t such a bad deal. Otherwise, stay far, far away from it.

Strengths:
Great picture quality. VGA, composite, S-VHS, and RF inputs.

Weaknesses:
Extremely short lifespan. MTBF (mean time before failure) measured in days or weeks. Not years.

Similar Products Used:
none

Review 3 of 4

Price Paid:  $1100.00

Summary:
HOLY SH*T, this is one hell of a TV. This is a no-frills televison. There is one s-video, one video, 2 vga inputs and thats it. The remote only lets you controol the basics. This was fine for me, simply because i rely upon my reciever to do all the a/v switching as i would hope anyone interested in purchesing this televison already has a s-video capible reciever. The one thing that really got me down though was the absence of a component input, but after about 10 minutes of the patroit, i forgot all about that. The color is outstanding, better than anything that i have seen in the relm of dvd's. The sharpness and depth of color make the picture appear to be almost 3 dimensional. I was in a complete trance while watching this televison. I cant wait to see hd. I could have paied twice the price for this televison and still be completly satisfied. I would recomend it to anyone that wants a outstanding picture. If your into all the bells and whistles look somewhere else, if you serious about the best in video quality for the price, look no farther.

Strengths:
Beautiful Picture. DVD's are absolutly amazing. Computer monitor is better than any i have ever seen. HDTV for under $1200!!!!!!!!!!!

Weaknesses:
No component inputs. Only 1 s-video. Dinky remote.

Review 4 of 4

Price Paid:  $1260.00

Summary:
its not the arcadia AR3.6, its the arcadia AR2.7. no listing in here for the arcadia AR2.7. i`m using this for dvd`s , cable, and computer monitor. wow its so nice , if u are looking for a hdtv and dont have 2000.00 to 10.000.00 to spend (its a 27``), look at this one. i got mine for 1260.00 shipped to me and its worth every penny. i love it. the only two things is it doesnt have alot of hook ups and the the remote will only work the tv. but what u get is great. happy i have mine and money well spent. thanks for looking.

Strengths:
wow what a tv

Weaknesses:
none

Best Floorstanding Speakers Under $1000

So many to choose from! Lets us boil it down. How to Choose a Floorstanding Speaker that fits you:

AudioREVIEW's Budget Audiophile Holiday Guide

Give someone the gift of hi-fi. Or make the step yourself. Let us point the way...

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
