The best bang for your buck..excellent TV !!
After extensive research, I decided on the Hitachi 42" Plasma. Hitachi is the leader in Plasma televisions, and they show why in this set. The set gives you a 1080i signal (won't get into that), and at the time, the set was on sale for less than the Panasonic and Samsung TVs that I was comparing to. You get far more features and inputs than those sets right out of the box for less price, not to mention the quality of the picture. I bought an Oppo upconverting DVD player to go along with this ...

Hated it, now LOVE it!
I had been searching for a new plasma TV and was all set on buying the ever popular Panasonic 42" 720 plasma from Best Buy. They had a sale for $1099.00 (actual just saw the Panasonic model on Amazon for $959.00 just now)
Anyway, while at Best Buy I noticed that the Hitachi here was on sale too but for $979.00! The sales guy said it was the best deal in the store. I asked "Why so cheap?" He said Hitachi is clearing out their line to introduce their new models with new techology. He s...

Reviewer below has a grudge...
If you click (See all my reviews) next to Mr. Hung-yen Cheng's name below you'll see that he's not talking about this product. Just that he has had an issue with an HDTV product of Hitachi's, and he's trying to slander their name and products. I'm trying to get people to look at reviewers other posts if available, before they make decisions about a product.

Bargain 42" Plasma
Ordered this TV set through Amazon. Arrived quickly; in fact four days before the estimated delivery. Picture is amazing. Easy to set-up, although reading the manual is required. While the picture quality is not quite like that of the higher cost Panasonic (blacks in particular), the average user will have little to complain about. The number of features and conveniences offered in this set make it appealing to either the average or the very serious viewer.
Very pleased with the bargai...

Picture quality is not as clear and sound could be better
Well, the only thing I have to say is that I'm really sorry that I did not repurchase the 42HDS69 like I originally had before it was stolen. I thought I would get the same quality of picture and sound from this model, but not the case. Believe me, the quality of picture on this model is not as crisp as it was on the 42HDS69. Also, someone told me that the volume/sound coming from the bottom speaker of the plasma tvs was suppose to be better than the volume/sound coming from the speakers on th...

DON'T BUY HITACHI!!!
BUY A SHARP AQUOS LCD - THEY ARE MY NEW, FIRST RECOMMEND! If I could do it over again I would!
Let me begin by saying that I'm a technophile - work at Google currently - have worked at Oracle and Microsoft previously... I know technology!
I bought this particular set because of its features and technology... however; it broke 3 months after purchase! After some very annoying back and forth with first line Hitachi customer support, an "authorized Hitachi repair person" cam...

Don't buy Hitachi!
My Hitachi HDTV is still broken after 4 repair attempts. Phone support flat out lies to me telling me they don't offer refund or exchange. After escalating it to her supervisor, got him to admit that exchange is an option. Now waiting for them to call me back with their decision. Not holding my breath.

My first HDTV, think I made a good decision
Really nice TV, especially for the price. Lot's of configurable options and the picture looks amazing...I don't have surround sound speakers yet but the built in audio for this TV sounds nice as well.
