LG 42LC7D 42-inch 720p LCD HDTV Review

We originally bought a Philips TV at Best Buy, but after we got home and opened it up, found it didn't have the analog connection we needed to hook up the very fine stereo system we had(after the salesman and Best Buy told us it did). Best Buy took it right back and offered us this set in exchange even though it was priced slightly higher. Very easy to install and it had all the connections we needed. However, at first I wasn't too happy with the picture. It seemed a little dark and a bit muddy but after researching on the internet and reading the manual a little more, I found that it can be adjusted and now the picture quality on most stations is great! I have to note that we don't subscribe to cable or satellite or any other programs, just get our local on air channels. We do watch a lot of DVDs and there's no problem with them. The main problem we have now has to do with the station signals which, if not good that day, cause pixels to break up and freeze at times. At first I thought it was the TV and went back to Best Buy where another salesperson showed me how to adjust the antenna and check the signal, so we get the best signal possible now. Overall I would rate this TV pretty well. Have had it about 3 weeks now so we'll see how it stands the test of time. Although, I wonder if we should have sprung for a more expensive TV and one with 1080p, this one so far does what we need and looks great.
