WOW!

Purchased this set in November as a family Christmas present. Contrary to the previous review about ambient light being an issue, my set faces a large family room window with two sky lights overhead. I had my reservations, but once properly adjusted this set rocks! The picture is awesome and I have had no problems what so ever.

The tech looked at the TV today. TV needs a new motherboard which is under warranty. Will be 5-6 days out. I am letting him repair it. Hopefully everything will work out.

Very clean picture. Lots of inputs. Great sound for TV speakers. Unit will not power on now. Blue LED on front panel just blinks. The tech will look at it in a week. I have owned the unit for two weeks. I like it so I wont return it yet. Waiting to see what the tech needs to fix.
2 bad units in a row...real glitchy

After reading wonderful reviews about Hitachi Ultravisions, I bought, from Sears, a 57S715. The first unit was drop kicked in my house resulting in out of adjustment lenses, the second unit had an intermittent power on issue(won't turn on) requiring an unplug for a resetting of televisions computer. That unit was replaced for another unit with an intermittent power on issue. Additionally, the remote for this television emits a high frequency noise when used lasting for about 20 seconds. When earlier reviewer mentions that this television is the perfect tv to "host tv nights at his house", he isnt kidding. The problem is that you would not be able to host tv afternoons or mornings unless you lived in a cave. Ambient light makes picture very difficult to view. Like most projection TV's, there is a very narrow viewing angle horizontally and vertically. Firmware updates for multi thousand dollar televisions. Hitachi released a product prematurely. I would avoid this product.
