Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?
 | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.

Customer Reviews
Sound problems
This product arrived on time and a nice guy delivered it and told me not to open it yet because it was a bit cold out and if you plug something like this in when it's cold, it could fry it. So I waited a few hours until I believed it had reached room temp. and set it up quite easily. The stand was easy to assemble as opposed to some of the Samsung reviews, which is why I didn't buy a Samsung. The ease of use was great and it has a very nice picture. The bad thing about it is that the sound has problems....it warbles and echoes and it is sporadic and will quit if you turn off the TV. So, in the first week I had it, I had to call Panasonic. The guy I spoke to told me that it must be my cable box because the speakers are so simple that they couldn't possibly be the problem. So, he told me to unplug my cable box for a while and then plug it back in. Well, that didn't fix it. A couple of weeks later I got a call from Panasonic saying that they had a record of my call and that indeed, there is a problem with the TV when connected via an HDMI cable and they were going to send me some firmware to fix the problem. Several weeks later they sent me two SD cards with the supposed fix. When I put the first card in, it could not read the file. So, I called them again and after waiting a half hour on hold, I finally got through to someone who said that the file didn't have what I needed and that they would send me another set of SD cards. That was yesterday....I bought the TV on April 29, 2010 and this is June 21, 2010. Needless to say, I probably won't be buying another Panasonic any time soon.
Great so far.
I've had the TV for 6 weeks and have no complaints so far. Picture was excellent right out of the box and a little cheat sheet Panasonic provides makes setup a no- brainer. I am on the east coast and received the TV 3 days after I ordered it.
Decent flat panel for the money
I purchased this set outside Amazon and decided to review it after giving myself two months to experience it.
The picture is almost comparable the Sony Bravia EX400. While comparing these two HDTVs in the store I was able to adjust the Panasonic to look as good as the Bravia. However, there were some minor graphic details missing from the Panasonic. For example a gray grid highlighting a baseball score on the Sony did not appear on the Panasonic TC-L37U22.
Remote is easy to use and well built. There are controls on the right side of the TV for menu/volume/channel/input. The buttons aren't lighted.
The progressive scan does an adequate job in displaying cable channels. It really shines on HD channels.
The sound from the built in speakers won't blow you away. For the best sound, it should be hooked into a home theater system.
Although the unit has an IPS panel (known for slower response times). While viewing regular sports I have yet to experience ghosting or blurring. Games might be a different story.
Overall, I am very pleased with this HDTV.
