 So beautiful that I wept. July 20, 2009

I had spent a year researching and saving for a TV. I had originally decided on the Sharp 65" Special Edition....but then the 2009 models started to show up.
I went around to my local stores and started to check out the latest and greatest of 240hz teli's and checked out the Samsung LED which was the only LED tv I could find in town. I was impressed and decided that the Sharp was no longer enough.
I started to research the big three LED/240hz/55" TV's I could find, the LG, the Samsung, and this the Toshiba. I ended up buying this one because my research pointed to it being the best.
I waited for 6 weeks while Amazon said they didn't have them and eventually bought it from Beach Audio through Amazon. I mounted it up on the wall myself and sat down to see how it looked...
I popped Mission Impossible in the ol' blu-ray player, cranked up the 7.1 surround, and watched....
It was amazing. My wildest dreams were surpassed by light years and I wept in the warm glow that filled my living room. This TV is amazing.
Also, Regza-link seems to work with Bravia-link since everything else I own is Sony. It was really hard choosing Toshiba over my old friend sony...

There isn't much original feedback for me to add. Most of it's been said.
The picture is vivid, and is the most accurate out of the box I've ever seen. All I did was turn the 'color' and 'brightness' down a little (I've always preferred a slightly subdued picture).
I was initially concerned about inputs. My TVs are always plumbed into my stereo and home theater systems. I use my preamp as the audio hub and my TV as the video hub. None of my gear is new enough to have HDMI, but there were still sufficient connections on the TV.
Someone please tell me if I break a rule here about naming magazines...
There is a professional review in the Nov 09 Home Theater Mag (it's also online). It's one of their recommended TVs. A well known cosumer mag (that likes to sue if they're named and quoted) ranks Toshiba LCDs as some of the least trouble prone LCDs, and recommends the REGZAs.
If I have any quality troubles down the road, I'll update this. Right now, I am completely satisfied. Let me add that Amazon was on the ball too. Again. TV was here four days sooner than promised, and in excellent condition.
A TV to Love ... December 21, 2009

I consider myself a tech savvy. I've been following consumer TV lineups and technology for months. from samsung to vizio, yes I checked them all out! This Toshiba does it the best in its class with solid picture quality and performance. if you are looking for an eye candy go get a samsung, but if you want performance in all aspects then this TV is for you.
I bought this set from amazon and had it for about 2 weeks now. The picture is amazing and the blacks are inky, deepest I've seen around! video processing is outstanding, handles motion really well. This LED TV delivers a great cinema-like experience.
Pros:
-Stylish single glass design
-Deepest inky blacks - Kuro like
-superior video processing - nicely removes judder and blur without adding video-game look
-amazing screen uniformity
-packed with pro-settings and tweaking menus, graphs, ambient light sensor and auto brightness feature
-Local dimming in its best
-no blooming, clouding, ghosting or flashing issues (known issues with LCDs)
-details in gray-black tones visible
-great value
cons:
-reflective screen (helps to achieve better contrast but could be an issue if you have a lot of windows)
-heavy
I'm very happy I returned my samsung LED for this unit. samsung LEDs (6000, 7000 and 8000 series) suffer from screen uniformity issues!
Buy this unit and you won't be sorry.
Great performance and value December 22, 2009

I researched and compared all the major brands, both plasma and LCD, in 52- to 55-inch size before making my purchase. Looks very good when off, and great when on! Very good sound from internal speakers, great amazon delivery service, and great value. In "real-world" viewing, I've never noticed any of the few shortcomings that some online and print reviews have mentioned as minor issues.
I'm not a videophile, and there may be units with better specs, but you can't beat this Toshiba's 55SV670U combination of features, performance, and price. Thoroughly satisifed with purchase and highly recommended.
Excellent 55 inch TV January 13, 2010

When I was looking to upgrade from my 46 inch Sony Bravia, which I loved by the way, I looked at everything out there. I read reviews on all the 55 inch models and kept coming back to this Toshiba. It is a beauty. Picture quality is amazing. This tv is Huge compared to my old Sony.
If you are in the market for a 55 inch LCD/LED, this tv is a great choice. It has more features for less money than any television out there. Bought mine at a local appliance store, which came bundled with a blu ray player and HDMI cables, surge protector, etc. for under 2k.
Compared it to plasmas which all seemed too dark to me. I even looked at a 58 inch Samsung plasma on the display which had burn in on the screen. The clerk said it had only been there a month. When the screen went dark you could see the burn in. That completely turned me off to plasma.
You cant go wrong with this tv for the money!
