Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I bought the Hitachi LE46S605 from Sam's as they are sold out on Amazon and I couldn't be happier. I'm not sure what the difference is between my model and this model but according to the S704's specs they're identical. Pros: Picture- The picture is incredible. I also own a 42" Phillips LCD and the picture quality is night and day. Watching HD cable (1080i) is a new experience for me with this LED tv. When watching HD movies on cable the quality is almost too good. By this I mean the detail is so precise that it takes away the traditional "movie" look. News and sports games in HD are awesome. No complaints here. Settings- Hitachi made an easy to navigate menu system where switching between picture formats is a breeze. I never cared for different formats on past flatscreens, but with this tv it honestly creates a different experience dependent on what your watching. Size and weight- The tv is very light. I carried it up my stairs myself without any difficulty and was playing xbox 5 minutes after opening the box. Its also very thin (~1.5") and, according to the manual, its very simple to hang on a wall if you decide to not use the swivel stand. Cons:Sound- Being such a thin tv its obviously hard to expect a booming sound. I hooked up my surround sound so this wasnt a problem for me But for anyone without a surround sound system, sound bar, etc you will probably be disappointed in this department. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and will recommend this item to my friends and family.
