Review 1 of 2

Price Paid:  $950.00 from local hi-fi

Summary:
After having owned this set for about 6 months, I must say that I am estatic about its performance. I could not have hoped for more. My casual viewing has turned into movie nights several times a week. Our DVD collection has went from some to about 75. I'm so glad I got it during football season. The color saturation is outstanding and very sharp. I did have to spend a deal of time with the avia tune up disk to get viewing to my favorite levels, but that is true for any set. The black levels are very good as is the convergence. I do notice some scan lines, but I sit 13'away. I had a tough time deciding not to buy HDTV. I had actually purchased a Mits ws-55805. I had it in the house for about three weeks and decided I could not live with it. It had red push that was intollerable. Since I usually watch DishNet, sport, and DVD's I did not notice any better picture. I prefer my Tosh hands down over the Mits, regardless of price...and I paid only a third of the price for the Tosh. Research has revealed that the 61a61 and 61a62 use the exact same 7" crt as the hx line of HD fptv. I suppose this is actually a money saving device for Tosh as they can limit the number of crt that they use in their products.

Strengths:
Great price Outstanding viewing quality anti-glare screen protector my pioneer elite remote picked it up fine oh ya, did I mention price!!!

Weaknesses:
my wife and I had to move it in ourselves...

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

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.
