Excellent value in 27" TV

The Philips Fanatic...well, not really, but this is a good TV...

This is the revised version of my review of the Philips 27PT543S 27" TV. I'll try to make it better than the last one but I'm not guaranteeing anything. It's all about the picture! Yes, picture is a critical thing these days. I don't know ...

A lot of features, good horizontal resolution, nice inputs/outputs, digital comb filter.

TV has to warm up for approx. 10 seconds before it comes on.

great picture, sound, awful high squeal

Great picture/sound for the price. Nice features: sound leveler, favorites, voice options and picture modes.

A VERY ANNOYING high pitched squeal which sounds like a dog whistle!!
