Buy online Westinghouse LVM-42W2 42-Inch 1080p LCD Video Monitor Great monitor /TVBy N. KumarI have had the chance to test out the 37inch westinghouse, 37 Sceptre, 42inch Sceptre and the 42 westinghouse. I bought all these 1080p monitors and kept only 2 of them. Hopefully my experience will help someone to make a right decision about their future purchase..First I got the 37 westinghouse. It was great as a monitor but while watching video it had motion blur due to slower response time and you could see the video had noise and was not sharp or cleaned up. If you want to buy for monitor only and not to watch video then you can get this unit.Then I got the 37 spectre which is also 1080p. This was a very good monitor. Black levels were good but it had video tear or jitter when I used to watch video with DVI input i.e from the computer.(no it was not the computer problem) I connected it to 3 different high end computers and the problem still persisted. I had to return it as it developed problem on left hand side of screen where the there was a chunk screen started to flicker within a few days. I got an replacement for it after 3 weeks. It worked for 45 days and it developed a blue vertical line which stayed on permanently. When I called sceptre they wanted me to ship it back and they said it would take 4-6 weeks to fix it, they said it was an panel problem. So I dont know if I was unlucky or if the build quality is bad. But the video from HDTV cable box was very very nice. Sharp no motion blur no jitter. Jitter was happenning only with 1080p video source through DVI. What I am talking about is that when watching video the top half of screen seems to tear from bottom half which gets very annoying.Then I recently bought the 42 inch Sceptre, it had a long wait time. I was really looking forward to this TV. But I was dissappointed as soon as I turned it on. The black levels were bad. I mean really bad. There was no details in the shadow. I tried every setting availiable to get the black level right, it just would not give me a clean picture. When I connect the computer through the DVI to HDMI convertor, it works good as a monitor. No jitters in the video at 1080p, but the black level will disappoint. Then I recently got the 42 westinghouse. This has been the best of both worlds. The 1080P video from computer is cleaner, no jittering, black levels are pretty good and best of all you can see details in the shadow. I have had the chance to set all three monitors next to each other and play the same HDTV content, the 42 westinghouse looks the best then comes the 37 sceptre. The 42 westinghouse has one problem, you will notice interlacing lines. If there is a diagonal line you will see jagged edges. Especially moving mouths you will see interlace lines. Its more noticable if you sit closer. This does not happen with the sceptre. The same diagonal line looked very smooth in sceptre. I think it is something to do with the deinterlacing part of the 42 westinghouse TV. Sometimes it works sometimes it does not. The video is very crisp, colors are vibrant. Video has less noise.If you are on a budget get 37 sceptre rather than 37 westinghouse, but you may have quality issues with 37 sceptre. I saw video jitter for DVI on both 37 sceptre I have had so it has to be a problem with the TV itself. But it is great as a HDTV, very very detailed and colors are really good and it has no deinterlacing or any other problems. details in shadow and the black level is much better on 37 sceptre than the 42 sceptre. Another very annoying problem with the 42 sceptre was when I changed source from DVI to any other source and then immediately back to DVI it would say No signal. Even if you turn the TV off and turn it on it would say no signal. You have to restart the computer. So 42 sceptre could not be used as an computer monitor without having to restart the computer everytime you turn off the TV or change source.I needed 2 monitors, one 37inch and one 42 inch, I ended up getting two of the 42 Westinghouse. Hope fully this helps.21 of 22 people found the following review helpful. » More Information about Westinghouse LVM-42W2 42-Inch 1080p LCD Video Monitor.Thursday, June 30, 2011
