View Full Version : 8VSB STD TV price barrier broken AntAltMike 05-20-07, 12:15 PM $99.99 From today's Best Buyer insert: InsigniaŽ 14" Flat-Tube Standard-Definition Digital TV Model: NS-F14TV Reg. Price: $129.99 You Save: $30.00 Sale: $99.99 I'll be buying mine this week. Scooper 05-20-07, 04:15 PM I have one of those (bought it a couple of weeks ago). Mini-review - won't tune the digital stations unless it is in the memory as a "scanned" channel. ATSC tuner is not quite as sensitive as the Samsung DTB-H260F. No signal strength/signal quality meter. Does a nice job of down-rezzing HDTV down to SDTV. Picture isn't bad, but personally, - I think my 10 year old 27 inch Sony is better. Has S-video/audio input AND composite video/audio input. Headphone jack, single RF input. Does NOT do QAM - ATSC / NTSC only. No A/V outputs except the headphone jack. gbynum 05-20-07, 04:33 PM $99.99 From today's Best Buyer insert: InsigniaŽ 14" Flat-Tube Standard-Definition Digital TV Model: NS-F14TV Reg.

Does NOT do QAM - ATSC / NTSC only. No A/V outputs except the headphone jack. Possible alternate; I bought the Element 15" LCD from Circuit City 2 weeks ago, 720p, good picture. I've had posts pulled for quoting prices, so let's say look at the CC website for it at 1.8*BB sale price on the Insignia. This one does do QAM, but digital, VSB and QAM, require the channel have been scanned. You can rescan either VSB or QAM, but that overwrites previous table scanned (VSB and QAM have unique tables). It's not my Sony E2000, but it sits in my home office and is very good. kenglish 05-20-07, 05:33 PM Is it 16:9, or 4:3 screen? jeff2631 05-20-07, 05:46 PM Is it 16:9, or 4:3 screen?
