Default Whats with the insignia hate in the world

I bought an Insignia NS-32L240A13 32 inch 1080p (60hz) set a few weeks ago & ive been getting crap ever since from friends and people I meet. I have the TV set up perfectly and when watching movies such as Toy Story 3 and PQ quality is stunning. No real flaws

I know that Insignia TV's are more of a lower end brand but putting it side by side with my 120hz Sharp tho the sharp using 120hz does look better this TV in 60hz looks pretty darn close to my 1000 sharp.

Is insignia really that bad cause in my eyes I see no flaws with the PQ at all.

Its a 32 inch so you probably wouldnt notice as much of a difference as you would if it was a 60 inch. But all that really matters is that YOU like it.

My father has a 32inch Insignia with the built in dvd player and he's loving it. I have watched it a few times with him and I see no fault in it PQ wise but thats maybe because its a 32inch. But hey as long as he likes it and you like it thats all that matters.

I have an older Insignia HD LCD TV (42"). I've had it for almost 4 years now. I paid $997 for it during a Best Buy "blockbuster" sale. The PQ is excellent, except for a couple black lines that are burnt into the screen for leaving my TV on all day once. It's not that big of a deal, but I could notice it big time when I watched Goodfellas on blu the other day. As far as the AQ goes, if you have the volume up real high, it gives off really high tones that screech in your ears, but I usually don't have the volume past 25 so it works out fine for me. Overall, I really like my Insignia and would defenitely consider buying another one in the future.

Sounds like your friends have a zero sum mentality & suffer from a superiority complex.

Exactly. I think the same thing when it comes to my 47" Vizio LCD(LED? I can't remember )and can't understand the hate there. My wife and I were watching John Carter of Mars in the bedroom and loving it. But just the mention of the name and folks looks at you like a pauper
Do you really have something to say or are you just in love with the sound of your keyboard?

Couldn't you see about getting a replacement or something? You may not have the volume about 25 often, but it still seems like a pretty glaring issue...

If I had a problem like that I sure as hell would stay away from that TV manufacturer
Check out my Star Wars Home Video Collection Website:

Yes, I STILL BUY DVDs! Any DVD with extras not ported to the blu-ray is STILL WORTH BUYING!

Most recent blu-rays: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Triple Feature (April 26), Star Trek: The Original Series, Season 1 (April 20)
