Don't buy a Syntax Olevia! I bought one and it died almost to the day the warranty went out. Customer service said I would have to pay to ship it back and pay the parts and labor to fix it and that would cost over half of the TV's cost. They wouldn't offer to help with anything and they said they lost my registration card, the same one they used to call me with to ask me how I liked it a week after I bought the TV. So all I can do is to post this to every blog I can to try to inform others.

I just got the tv a day ago and i must say that I'm impressed. At first I thought a 42" would be a little too big for my living room, but this thing sits perfect. I haven't hooked up my HD yet, but the satellite picture is way better than I thought it would be. The sound isn't even all that bad like some of the reviews stated on other forums. The room its in is 18x15 and its loud enough, but I'm still going to hook up a surround sound for the theater effect. My brothers came by yesterday to watch the all-star game and they couldn't stop saying how nice it looked. I'll update this review in the weeks to come to see if the tv is performing the same. All I can say is for $983($799 before 2 yr. extended warranty which I recommend and taxes, can somebody say Fair Tax) this is a great deal for a 42" lcd hdtv that broadcasts at up to 1080i.

i got the 242v model a month ago, the one with the spkrs at the sides. it's hooked to a toshiba HD-A3 and displays beautifully all this hd dvd player throws at it. excellent upconverted image: the standard dvd's of gladiator and chronicles of riddick could fool many into believing they were watching hi-def. and the hd dvd's look simply spectacular. it cost me $770 and i cannot imagine paying more for a big name lcd hdtv. of course, olevia is a relative newcomer and we'll have to wait and see about the reliability of their hdtv's, but so far so good (more than...)

This TV had a great picture and pretty decent sound. I picked it up for a really good deal on Black Friday and loved it with one major exception. If you are going to use this TV for "over the air" reception be forewarned that it will not output the Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound through the optical or coaxial outputs. I use over the air so this was a deal breaker for me. I made several calls and spent LOTS of time, mainly on hold, with Olevia only to find out they don't have a clue what they are talking about. After the first call the set was returned for another and it did the same.
I've had another Olevia TV with other problems but it output the DD 5.1 fine. If you're using cable or satellite you should not have this problem, just hook directly to the receiver from your cable/satellite box and don't worry about the TV output. If you just want "stereo" instead of surround you can also get that from the output as PCM.
