 Very satisfied November 18, 2008

I've had this TV for over a week now. This is my second HDTV LCD panel but my first in a larger size.
This unit packs a lot into a nice package for a really nice price. If you're looking for something just one notch below premium (i.e. a great set with great value) then buy this set. Don't be thrown by the price; this TV looks great and performs superbly.
720p at this screen size is perfect. 1080p below 42 inches is wasteful feature bloat that you don't need to pay for. High Def channels look phenomenal on this set. XBOX360 over component is terrific. My HD feed is fiber optic. I have not tested over-the-air reception of this unit yet.
Standard Def (regular TV) is very good compared to what I've seen on other sets in stores and at friends' houses. The internal signal up-converter is solid. DVD over component hookups looks very nice.
Display adjustment options are extensive. Some tweaking is needed out-of-the-box but this is very easy to do, and you can look online (AVSForum is great) for help in this arena.
ClearVoice sound (emphasizes dialogue over sound effects & music) is a great option and works well.
The internal speakers are surprisingly decent if that's all you have. They have very little bass, but the mid-range sound is fairly full. We have a small 2.1 speaker system that we will use, but I haven't yet felt compelled to hook it up while we get the sighting and wiring runs finalized.
The biggest problem I had with TV was getting the stand attached. Once I got that sorted out, the rest of setup was a breeze.
I paid more money than this set is listed for here, and I'm still thrilled with my purchase. That should say a lot.
Great Tv for the price August 6, 2008

I bought this one a couple of days ago for $600+taxes. For some reason, both I and my wife thought there was something wrong with it, very good image quality but somewhat dim for our tastes - in all fairness, we still watch many channels in standard or digital definition.
So, we bought a better one, a Samsung 37'', 1080p, NC550... According to all reviews, it was supposed to be better, a lot better, it was a 1080p for God's sake!. And, as we soon found out, this one was not "dim" by any measures!
I have calibrated the LG (do a search on google), and tried to do the same thing with the Samsung but I could not find any websites with the needed calibration information. I tweaked the settings on Samsung for hours on end. After 6-8 hours of watching both TVs, side by side, on a variety of channels (HD, Digital and Analog - I have not tried to hook them up to my laptop, though nor played any games on them!!!), the decision was somewhat easy. Incredibly, unexpectedly, the LG (37'', 760p) was significantly much better than the Samsung (37'', 1080p etc.). The image was much clearer and warmer, more pleasant to the eyes, the faces on both SD and Digital signals much clearer, more... "acceptable". On an HD signal alone, we could not see any significant difference at all (again, we both liked the LG but it was just an a preference by now!). We watched both of them, the same channel, the same cable signal, at the same time ... I know it sounds incredible, but we both liked the LG more.
The price was not an issue, the Samsung was just a $100 more (at Brandsmart USA). I was totally surprised: I thought the Samsung would blow us away (it was SAMSUNG, 1080p!!!. 5th generation after all), but it so turned out that the image on the LG was way much better. My wife kept telling me: I like the LG more, but if you think Samsung is better, then it is up to you! It took me hours to finally give up a "better" TV, the Samsung (1080p), for the LG (720p), but I did it. Now, when we watch TV (LG), we love it!
I have my doubts, but I am open to the remote possibility that some "calibration settings" on the Samsung could offer an image equal or even better in quality than the one on LG. I would be very, very, very surprised though...
We've also had a Plasma, 42''. Hitachi, TV in our Living room for 2 years now. Excellent TV, on all signals... The LG is not "better" is a bit different...
I suggest that you buy two of the Tvs you like, bring them home, set them up in the room you like, watch them side by side, and THEN decide. Otherwise, you don't know how good (or bad) your TV is! What you watch in the showroom and EVEN THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS are only an INDICATION of what your TV would look like to your own eyes in your own room.
All the best!
I love it December 14, 2008

Having the 37LG30 for 2 weeks now, I think it is one of the best HDTV in its class. I trust the brand name because LG is the one that provides LCD panels to those graphic professionals. I love the overall quality. And it looks pretty nice fit to my small living room. What is my take? Be sure to run color calibration to suit your own eyes. Enjoy your TV.
Great LCD tv at a great price December 17, 2008

This is my second LCD tv, the first being a 32" Samsung which was my main living room tv. I wanted a larger unit so I went with a 37-incher and must say that the 37LG30 has been superb so far. The unit is sleak and stylish, and was easy to install. I have standard cable and an upconverting DVD player connected with an HDMI cable. Cable shows look good, but the real beauty of this tv is revealed with movies in 720p. The picture is amazing! Sound is ok, but I use a speaker bar/subwoofer unit for everything and it really upgrades the sound. I did not compare this unit with the Samsung LN37A450 (or with my own Samsung LCD for that matter) but I'm sure you can't go wrong with either model. The LG was $150 cheaper at the time of purchase, so price was somewhat of an influence. If you're going to buy an LCD tv and have room for a 37-inch, I definitely recommend it over a 32-inch. The bigger screen size is worth it!
