I've had one of these for a month and I think the picture is great and the built in sound is very good. You will be very happy with that part if you buy one of these. I've had a couple of problems with it and researching on the internet reveals they are very common problems. Video and audio are sometimes out of sync, especially if you are using component connections from a peripheral device, like a DVD player. Using S-Video and RCA audio connectors can get you around the problem. Sometimes the set turns itself off, especially when cold. I've heard the bulb can burn out very quickly, so it's advisable to get an extended warranty to cover the cost of the bulbs - $300. I'm still giving this four stars because the picture (from satellite HD and off-air HD) is fabulous.
