Beautiful picture, simple frame I'll start out by saying the PH9UK series by Panasonic isn't for everyone. This is an "industrial" model rather than a consumer model. Because of this, there are some things to consider before purchasing: 1) No built in tuner (not an issue if you have digital cable or satellite) 2) No built in speakers (not an issue if you use an audio receiver and surround sound to take advantage of the sound quality from HD channels!) 3) Stand/Mount not included (you have to buy it separately...

Great Plasma CNet was right on the money rating this plasma excellent. I would rank it as phenominal in terms of it's clarity, color, and performance. This is not a full 1080p resolution, only 1080i, but it honestly could matter on a screen this size (not to mention that nothing much is even in 1080p yet anyhow). Sportcenter looks amazing, Monday Night Football is stunning, and HBO HD has some really impressive movies that look great (I watched the original JAWS movie, and that initally sequence with the gir...

Very Good near-HD quality plasma Pros * Amazing lifelike color * HD content looks beautiful with lots of details * SD content, while not as detailed, looks much better than on normal TVs (heck, better than most other HDTVs) * Deep blacks with very good shadow detail * Independent inputs (great for universal remote controls) * Independent color settings for each input * Good-looking minimalist frame * Built to last forever (it's an industrial model)
Cons * Stand ...

Fantastic TV See the earlier review and product description to what does and (mostly) does not come with this TV. If you already have speakers, a cable box/tuner, and no need for the stand... you can save some bucks with this TV. Don't think of this as a TV per se, more just a display.
But what a display it is! The picture is drop-dead gorgeous, with excellent black levels, great contrast, bright colors, etc... everything you would expect from a top-flight HD TV. We only had standard-definition ...

Look around, this one gets great reviews everywhere. Pros: 1) Great picture! This plasma has the contrast you just can't find on an LCD.... not to mention the vibrant color! 2) The native resolution is higher than similarly priced panels at 1024X768. 3) This set easily produces a 1080i signal out of a cable box. Currently most satellite and cable companies are broadcasting HD in 1080i, and this panel which I am using as my bedroom tv is fitting the bill perfectly! I should mention I'm using component to BNC adaptors for my picture.

Great picture/easy set-up/great price It took longer than I hoped for it to arrive ,but that was to be expected because of our remoteness.Hard to track shipping.The plasma arrived in prefect condition not a mark on the box.I removed it from the box, set it up,plugged it into the wall then plugged the Directtv dvr. To my amazement it was up and running. I scrolled thru the format selections ,found the one I liked , done . The manual and menus were easy to use , pleny of adjustments and tweaks if you need or want , works great as a c...

Panasonic TH-42PH9UK 42" Plasma HDTV Monitor I utilized the reviews here and a few other places before deciding on the monitor. Let me start off by stating I am extremely pleased with the monitor. It has, so far, produced a fantastic image onscreen - and this is without HDTV.
Delivery via VANN's was great - cheap (only $30), I waited until the price was right $999. VANN's delivery "rules" were curbside but the driver helped me into the house anyway and helped me inspect the outside and inside of the package. No damage - unit w...

Panasonic TH-42PH9UK 42" Plasma HDTV Monitor The product was not delivered -- I spent a day waiting at home, missed a day of work.
I was told the product had been lost in transportation.
I asked to be reimbursed. They promised to do so quickly. My credit card has not yet been credited for the amount.
All in all, a frustrating experience.

Dynamic I live in Barbados, so bying this item from a third party seller ritz camera had me abit nervous but i trusted amazon so i knew that all would have gone well.

The screen resolution is just remarkable and the black in it beats any LCD moitor . I would recomend this moitor to any one just remember ,it has no speakers or tuner just con...
