HD RESOLUTION
High definition television is the highest performance segment of the DTV system used in the U.S. It’s a wide screen, high-resolution video image, coupled with multi-channel, compact-disc quality sound.

AV MODE
LG HDTVs include 3 AV Modes, preset to optimize picture and sound settings based on “Cinema”, “Sports” or “Game” content. AV Modes can be easily set with a convenient button on the remote control.

CLEAR VOICE TECHNOLOGY
Automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of human voice frequency range to provide high-quality dialogue when background noise swells.

INVISIBLE SPEAKER SYSTEM
LG’s 2008 line of TVs include a unique invisible speaker system, tuned by renowned audio expert, Mr. Mark Levinson. Speakers are embedded in strategic spots behind the front cabinet and use minute vibrations to turn the entire front bezel into the speaker system. The result is a clean, polished look, and enhanced audio by increasing the “sweet spot”, giving a wider and richer sound field.

LG 42LG30 user reviews

    "LG 42LG30 is the 2nd LG monitor/TV I own and see absolutely no reason not to buy LG again. Picture is excellent, even with non HD programming. Of course the quality of your non-HD programming depends on the feed... so thats really negligible.

If you're looking for an excellent mid-range priced HDTV then this is the one to get. "

    "I bought LG 42LG30 about a month ago and have been impressed. This is my 2nd HDTV and I shopped around and researched before I decided on this purchase. I have nothing but good things to say about it. This TV has an easy setup, multiple settings for video and audio with plenty of inputs for my use. Maybe my eyes are old but I have a difficult time telling the difference between the 720p and the 1080p, especially with this set.

I have read a few of the recent reviews that were not here before I purchased my TV. Don't know if these were damaged in shipping or just a bad batch from the factory. Hopefully LG and Best Buy will stand behind their products.

From my experience this is a great value."

    "Fantastic LCD. LG 42LG30 is my first LCD television. I am impressed! Opted for the affordability of 720p but you would be hard tried to tell a difference from 1080p... The picture is excellent! Sound quality is what you would expect from internal speakers. Plenty of custom adjustment ability and hook-ups for all your components including 2 primary and one side located HDMI port! It looks very nice too! I'm very satisfied!"

    "I love LG 42LG30!Lg are known for making some of the best pc monitors in the world so i'm not surprised this tv is so good.After comparing tv's in shops & researching online i chose the Lg tv & i am thrilled!Aesthetically it looks very nice.Picture quality is amazing,even better than tv's that cost alot more including Sony & Panasonic & it made sanyo's lcd tv's & Daewoos 46" full hdtv look pathetic.Dvds have been given a new lease of life & look better than ever!Picture is sharp & vibrant,colors are rich,lush & very natural looking.Blacks are deep,Motion is very smooth & the picture is virtually free of background noise/artefact's.I noticed more on the panasonic/sony models.Aliens vs Predator 2 dvd looks incredible!Tv looks great & it Makes a fantastic computer monitor too & i'm looking forward to pc gaming when i get a more powerful psu.Negatives-sound is a little on the quiet side,tv mount is a little wobbly.Worst of all backlight bleeding is noticeable from an angle.But sit in front of the screen & you don't really notice it when watching movies.For the price this 42" tv is unbeatable costing only a little more than 32" big brand names.If you want a cheap 42" tv with amazing picture quality take a look at this tv.What you pay for is what you get doesn't apply to this tv,you get a whole lot more than what you payed for!

    "Pros: LG 42LG30 has Cheap price

Cons: Picture is not that good. HD looks like regular TV; haven't ever seen an hdtv that looks any worse. Sound is ok, not great.

Summary: I would spend a few dollars more for a better tv and leave this one at the store. I've had it a week and already considering putting it on craigslist or something. I'm willing to take a lhefty oss in selling to get rid of it. "
