Consumer review (newegg.com)

Directional and Weak

I kept it because it kept me busy beyond the return date; otherwise, I would have brought it back. At present, the amplifier has gone bad and huge colored streaks and breakups appear across the screen. TV is NOT to blame. DO NOT BUY THIS. It is a good...
