Panasonic CT-32HX41 32" HDTV-Ready TV Reviews
I've had this TV for about eight months now and have had no problems with it. The picture is exceptionally crisp and the unit itself is very stylish.
I have the audio ported out to a small stereo so can't comment on the quality of the speakers.
One word of caution though: This sucker is HEAVY! At 165lbs, out of the box, it's out of most people's "I'll move it by myself" range. I moved this up the stairs in the box and it nearly killed me. I didn't know it weighed this much. It's also a bit of a strain on the solid oak shelf it's sitting on in my armoire too, but it seems to be holding.
Overall, it's a nice unit.

Video Features
This set's Panasonic PureFlat picture tube delivers rich, detailed images with excellent corner-to-corner depth. Unlike conventional curved screens, the PureFlat screen minimizes reflections and distortions, for optimal TV viewing no matter where you're sitting. It also features a three-line digital comb filter, which enhances resolution by removing the blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl. Its dual component video inputs help provide superior video images and color accuracy. Panasonic televisions with these component video inputs can accept either progressive or interlaced signals from a variety of sources, including DVD players and DTV set-top boxes. The progressive scan doubler displays almost twice as many video "frames" as a conventional television does, eliminating horizontal scan lines. And finally, this television doubles as an HDTV (high definition television) monitor, allowing you to view high-definition broadcasts when paired with an HDTV digital receiver. The HDTV digital format provides ultra-high resolution for an amazingly crisp, lifelike picture.
Audio Features
The CT-32HX41 features AI sound, an auto volume adjustment feature that sets a constant comfortable listening level. Its BBE technology also enhances speech intelligibility and optimizes the dynamic range of sound for music. Its easy, onscreen setup helps you set bass, treble, and balance. You can use the onscreen controls to adjust the volume of both the set's speakers and external speakers connected for a home theater setup. The set is also equipped with SAP (second language decoding) with dbx noise reduction.
Other Features

Panasonic's Director lighted disc remote, recently redesigned to provide even easier and more accurate control, can control most current audio and video devices, including DVD players, VCRs, cable TV boxes, laser disc players, DBS receivers, stereo receivers, CD players, and cassette tape decks. This set also includes four sets of A/V input jacks (one front and three rear); the video is a composite video input. This set is Energy Star compliant.

We were happy with this TV at the start. After our warranty ran out--so did the TV. One day the TV just would not turn on even after several attempts to unplug and plug it back in which only resulted in pop, snap. die! We have been waiting almost four weeks for parts to repair it. Panasonic has not sent the parts needed as requested by our repair shop. We have been given several excuses about what had caused the problem and why it hasn't been fixed. From "the power supply" to "acid leaking on the board" to "waiting for parts from Panasonic". From day one this TV had an arch across the bottom of the picture when viewing widescreen. We were willing to put up with this first problem. But after waiting over a month for this major repair we are in the process of now purchasing a different brand of TV. We would highly recommend that you think twice about purchasing this Panasonic lemon.
