Summary: Perfect HDTV for its price and quality - deliver excellent
Review: I order the TV - it came after 5 days. Good price. I ask just for the basic delivery and shipping. So I had to carry the TV with my friends. If I pay more the delivery man would bring it all the way inside. But no problem - its in now and I am watching the TV. I recommend anybody to buy this TV without thinking to much. It's worth it. APEX does have warranty and as any electronics you have risk, expecially when you don't buy it where you see it. I can't complain - I am happy with the Apex TV and you have to buy it to see what I mean.

Summary: Great buy
Review: I ordered this TV kind worried it would not be worth the money but it turned out great. No other store compares with the price. The only problem I had was the shipping. It took almost 3 weeks to get the TV and I had to call the shipping company 3 times before they delivered it. Other than that the TV is great and have no regrets. The picture is good even without cable or satellite. Hook ups are easy with many options. Great buy!

Summary: 2 months time to buy a new one
Review: I received my tv on time. It had a nice picture for 2 months and the convergence went out. If you read one of the other reviews, my tv is just like Jons from Los Angeles. The colors are out of whack and distorted and you can never get ahold of Apex because the phone is busy. So I called a repair center and they are coming out here to fix it for free because I have a 1 year warranty. I recommend to stay away from this product.

Summary: sorry
Review: I think I remember paying $900 + something for this television and thinking it was a great deal for such a large screen. I still feel that way... despite the problems that I have encountered.

Problem #1 - Occasionally, after pressing the power `ON' button on (either on the unit or the remote) the green light on the front of the TV comes on, but I never get a picture. After pressing the button to turn the television back `OFF', the little green light on the front just blinks but doesn't turn off and I still have no picture. The first time this occurred it really freaked me out, especially since it was only about 2 weeks old at the time it first happened.

Solution - Unplug the television from the wall, and plug back in. Hit the power button on the remote. Television usually performs fine for a week or so after doing this.

Problem #2 - At random times, the volume goes up a little, or down a little... even though no one is touching the remote control. Very strange, I admit.

Solution - Not known. Deal with it.

Problem #3 - Sometimes the television changes channels on its own, while no one is touching the remote. This occurs very rarely, but I have seen it happen with my own eyes.

Solution - Change the channel back to the one you were originally watching.

Despite these problems, I love this TV. The picture is bright and clear, it has lots of inputs in the back for components, and the sound is actually quite clear with decent bass. Besides, how else would a money-conscious person like myself be able to afford such a HUGE television? Other televisions of the same size cost much more than I paid. The only person that I know who paid less for a similar-sized television bought a damaged Zenith with a huge crack in the screen!

It's no secret that you often get what you pay for, and I believe that I certainly did. But right now I would rather invest the extra $1000 in an IRA, or use it to take a vacation and get away from the TV for a while.

Summary: Customer Service?
Review: I've tried for 3 weeks to find out if they had a service company in the Des Moines, Iowa area!! Phone line is always busy, emails go unanswered, FAQ questions submitted to the... website go unposted?? I can't figure out why a company like APEX would let a prospective buyer slip away. I own a DVD player from APEX and I love it, but purchase a projection TV online... and not have local service??
Surely they must also look at Amazon website??

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great TV for the price.
Review: Like the last person to post, it took a while for it to arrive but it did. Like any projection TV, there's color distortion while viewing in certain angles. Picture does appear sharp and audio is crisp. Great buy for its price.
