General Background
Protron sources most of their LCD panels from LG-Phillips.
Pros:
- Most buyers appear to like the picture quality. Some say its up there with the Sony and Panasonic LCDs.
- With an HD source, such as an HD DVD, the picture quality goes up dramatically.
- Good features for the price.
Cons- If it goes wrong and you have to send it back (which is the case for models 32 inches and smaller) their customer service is BAD.
- Doesn’t have coverage of major brands.

The Philips 32PF9830 won the “Product of the Year” award in the TV category in What Hi Fi Sound and Vison Magazine’s 2005 awards. This is a prestigious award won against competition from the best sets available.
This particular model is a 32 inch widescreen TV that uses Philips’ “Pixel Plus 2 HD” technology. Essentially this is intelligent image processing and enhancement software which adjuts each pixel (dot on the screen) to give the best match to the adjacent pixels.
In ths latest version it has been optimised for High Definition sifgnals and resiolution - supporting the HD resolution of 1366 x 768.
The Philips was particularly praised for its depth of field and 3 dimensional imaging. Its capabilities improve even further when it is used with an HD (High Definition) signal source.
It also uses the innovative NXT flat panel loudspeakers for seriously good sound quality.
