We bought a Panasonic PV-DM2791, and we finally arranged to exchange for a different model. The worst thing about the TV is the VCR. From the very beginning, it didn't want to accept videotapes. At least 70% of the time, the tapes would "catch," and...

I currently own several Panasonic TV's and TV/VCR Combo's and they have been for the most part trouble free. In September 2001 I bought a 27" flat screen TV from Panasonic and it has been nothing but trouble as of April 2002. The major problem has...

I just bought this unit about 2 weeks ago and have been very disappointed. The picture quality is inferior to most other flat-screen TVs. The red colors are oversaturated (Yes, I adjusted the colors), the picture is grainy. And the DVD player is noisy...

Great Combo

 

Great Combo

Just picked up the unit yesterday, after some online shopping and research. Was a bit bigger than I wanted (actually using it in bedroom) but the picture was just plain better than the smaller Toshiba TV/DVD combo I saw demo'd with same DVD. The...

It's about time!

The consensus around here, especially among TV/VCR repairmen, is that, if you're going to buy a TV/VCR combination, buy Panasonic. Now they've come out with this all-in-one combo! We just love ours. No hook-ups to worry about--just plug it in and...

I would rate this about a 3.5. Sound quality was not that great on the item. Either was picture quality for that matter. I would have expected more from this name brand.

I bought this piece of electronic mastery just recently! I got this and when I hooked it up. I just couldn't believe what I saw and heard. Excellent picture and excellent sound quality. If you can afford this item, then I suggest that you buy it...

Product Specifications

Panasonic gives the term "Home Theater in a box" a whole new meaning with a unique combination 27" Television, high-quality DVD/video CD/CD player and 4-head Hi-Fi Stereo VCR, all in one sleek cabinet. The concept of home theater entertainment doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, with the new Panasonic PV-DM2791 TV/DVD/CD/VCR combination, it's extremely simple . Take the unit out of the box, plug it in, and you're ready to view your favorite DVD movie, video cassette, or TV program. Leave it to Panasonic to even include an FM radio and alarm clock. And, of course, the DVD player does double-duty as an audio CD player. The unique product's all-in-one space-saving design makes it especially welcome in areas like bedrooms, dorms, home offices and apartments wherever space is at a premium, or simplicity in operation is paramount. As with all Panasonic products, quality is not sacrificed for the sake of simplicity. Each component has been thoughtfully designed for high performance as well as convenience. Since it's darker than conventional picture tubes, the PanaBlack tube in this 27" model helps combat the picture degrading effects of ambient light. The VCR Plus feature makes it simple to program your VCR. Every program has a PlusCode number that can be found in most newspaper and magazine TV listings. All you have to do is enter this number and your timer is automatically set. By simply pressing the "search" button twice, you'll jump right to the end of the current recorded program, allowing easy access to the next one. To help reduce the number of remote controls you have lying around, the included illuminated universal remote also operates most TVs and cable/DSS boxes. Outputs for DTS & Dolby Digital Decoders provide six discrete channels of exhilarating digital audio that deliver the ultimate sound experience. Advanced Virtual Surround Sound creates the surround sound effect by simulating surround-channel sounds using only two front speakers. 2-line digital comb filter produces a superb picture quality. Multiple DVD Viewing Options lets you switch between multiple camera angles and up to eight different languages or with subtitles up to 32 languages. FM Radio with Auto Scan features a nine preset-station memory and an on-screen display for station confirmation.
