Lcd Televisions

With the explosion in popularity of home cinema in the last few years, there have been a whole host of advances in both sound and vision. Nowhere is this more true in the quality of LCD televisions, with displays surpassing anything yet seen. However, this usually comes at a fairly hefty price - until now, that is, with the release of the Syntax range of LCD televisions.

Offering a choice of sizes and features for a lower than average price, Syntax LCD televisions are beginning to find popularity among those that would like to move up into the home cinema experience, but have been put off by the cost of setting it all up. The good news with Syntax LCD TVs is that even though their TVs are about $500 - $600 less than their bigger name equivalents, it's not at the expense of losing design or feature quality.

For example, their 30-inch model, the LT30HV, costs around $1700, which is a full $800 less than the likes of those from Panasonic or Sony, and makes the Syntax model one of the best buys around. Although it may not have the full HDMI features of the more expensive models, it does allow you to use an HDMI converter, which will then display pictures in the more standard 1080i resolution.

Another way that Syntax LCD televisions differ from a lot of other sets is that they use a process called PixelWorks video processing, to give the viewer the best performance each time, regardless of what is being displayed on-screen, and how fast the image is moving. Although it's not perfect yet, with some of the prime colors like green and blue mixing at times, it's definitely the way forward for LCD televisions, and Syntax should be applauded for featuring it in such low-priced units.

Sound quality is pretty good as well, considering that this is generally the weak point in most televisions. Bass is acceptably low, whilst treble and vocals stand out fairly well. Of course, you're never going to beat a dedicated receiver and speaker package, but for what it offers, the sound on Syntax LCD televisions is adequate enough. Plus, you can always use them as the center speaker in a more dedicated set-up, if you prefer.

If you're not the most technically minded of souls, then the Syntax range of LCD TVs could be just what you're looking for. Setting the system up is as easy as possible, with just a few wires going from the TV to the detachable speakers that you can sit at the side of the screen. Then it's just a matter of letting the television set itself up, and make the necessary changes to your sound and picture that best suit your preferences.

Even the remote control is simple to follow, and lets you make any changes you have to via a large on-screen display menu. If there are any gripes with the controller, it's not back-lit, which could offer a problem if you're using it in a dark setting, and there's no button for "OK" and "Cancel", so it can be a little but fiddly in that respect. However, these are minor niggles - if you're looking for a low-priced yet quality TV for your home cinema set-up, you could do a lot worse than the Syntax LCD television range.
