Quite contrary, my AWOL has great picture and you can see everything in high resolution.

I think of these "Flat Screen TVs" as very, very large monitors so I tend not to expect them to have the best sound.

The picture is very good in my opinion.-The TV is extremely thin and has an attractive form factor.

I've done that previously and it worked fine except we were using a conventional CRT TV and the picture didn't have the clarity, sharpness and detail that we wanted.
Rated 100% by by Delta (Mar, 2012)
Even though the speakers are on the back, the sound quality is pretty awesome in my opinion for this type of TV.
