"Glad I got 1080p 120Hz - What a difference!"

By Lutech

Pros: Picture quality, easy setup, great price

Love my new TV. Great picture at a great price... BB matched Amazon's. Didn't pay for a Smart TV but instead bought a very nice Smart Blu-Ray Player and it works fabulously! LG makes excellent LCD TV's. Again the 1080p changes the way HD looks and the 120Hz makes action scenes run smooth. Sound was fine but I hooked up two small Bose speakers (~$100)... that did the trick until I get my home entertainment system!
