Amazon.com Product Description
Transform your home theater with the brightly colorful 37-inch Akai LCT3785TA LCD HDTV. You'll enjoy 480p, 720p and 1080i high-definition viewing right out of the box thanks to the built-in digital ATSC tuner, which pulls HD signals right from the airwaves. You can also connect the set to an optional receiver or cable/satellite set-top box using either the HDMI or component connections. A standard analog NTSC tuner receives standard-definition (SD) programming. p The LCT3785TA has a 1366 x 768-pixel resolution, 176-degree wide viewing angle, and a super-fast 8ms (millisecond) response time, which minimizes blurring of moving images and is especially helpful for sports and action movies. It also offers a 550 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating and a 800:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) p Other features include color temperature settings (cool, middle, warm, and user-defined), MTS/SAP stereo audio, a sleep timer, last channel recall, picture zoom and freeze, tri-lingual on-screen display (English, French, Spanish), and V-Chip parental controls. p The bottom-mounted speakers produce 7 watts of power per channel for 14 total watts of power. It offers the following connection options: ul liComposite AV (RCA): 2 in liS-Video: 1 in liComponent video: 2 in liHDMI: 1 in liPC VGA: 1 in (with PC audio mini-jack input) liRF: 1 in /ul p bTech Talk/bbr iHDMI/i is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link any audio/video source (such as a set-top box, DVD player, or AV receiver) with your TV--all over a single cable. It provides up to a 5 GB per second bandwidth for transmitting pure digital video and audio signals with no degradation in the transfer. It can carry up to eight discrete audio channels, making it compatible with 7.1-channel surround sound systems. Signals are encrypted with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) to prevent recording. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with most DVI connections. p iComponent video/i (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound. p bWhat's in the Box/bbr LCD HDTV, stand, remote control (with batteries), printed operating instructions

I wouldn't buy it again May 18, 2008
Aldo Vargas
It has a nice colors and great image. Sound is not impressive. It has only 1 HDMI input, although the 1 S-Video, 2 component and VGA inputs are adequate. PC display works fine, but its highest resolution is only 1024x768. The remote control is really bad: it cannot control multiple devices and switching between TV modes is slow and sequential. It lacks of an auto-voltage regulator, which you should buy separately. After 6 months of minimal use I had go to repair it. In summary, the display is good but there are better options.

I bought this unit brand new 5 months ago. It quit working after 3 months. AKAI has done nothing but give me the run-around. You would be nuts to buy this or any other product from this manufacturer!

My Akai TV quit 1 month after purchase. The customer support at Akai is dysfunctional and 3 months after the TV failed and dozens of frustrating phone calls, I still have not been able to get it replaced. If you buy an Akai product, be sure to get an extended warranty from the store where you purchased it and that the store, not Akai, will replace or fix the product unless you enjoy being recycled in the corporate backwash.

This is the only 37" LCD TV I've seen that is under $1,000. Akai's screen resolutions has a wide range from 480i to 1080p, so you can get the sharpest picture out of any device used with this TV, including a Pc. I only have two reasons for giving this TV four stars and that is it only has one hdmi input and it only goes from left to right from one input to the next. For the hdmi problem I got a hdmi splitter for under $20.Cable, 12IN HDmi Cable Splitter
