Customer Reviews

Outstanding small TV5
I am extremely impressed with the Panasonic 20" Tau. I looked at 20" flat screens from Aiwa and Sony but the Panasonic had the best balance between performance, sound, and price.

The picture is sharp, bright, and clean, moreso than either the Aiwa or Sony. The menus interface is logical and makes sense. It's a personal preference, but I like how the Panasonic model uses different colors for it's various on-screen information (outside the menu system) versus Aiwa and Sony's monotone color scheme for all on-screen information. The Speakers are clear and crisp, although the one's on the Aiwa were better. (as they should be. Aiwa is a sound company.)

The really nice aspect of the Panasonic model is that it has 3 A/V inputs and a Component Video input, meaning four A/V devices can be hooked up to it. The Aiwa only had 2 A/Vs and Component and the Sony didn't have Component. Additionally, the Panasonic has a Headphone Jack; that's not available on the Sony model.

I personally like the features, great picture, and sound quality of the Panasonic model. I personally think it's the best looking one of the bunch. It cost less than the Sony model but more than the Aiwa model. The Panasonic offered the most features, the best picture, great audio and at a good price. I'd encourage anyone in the market for a high-end, quality 20" TV to give the Panasonic model serious consideration.

TAU Wows Even in the World of HDTV5
My wife and I bought this set about four years ago and it has been better than we could have hoped. I wish it supported Progressive Scan but, evidently, nothing in the sub-27" category does. Notwithstanding this size-class drawback, this is the best television I have ever owned, hands-down. The picture is absurdly better than competitive offerings and, despite its diminutive size, when connected to a nice receiver with surround sound speakers and paired with a DVD player with an S-Video out and digital audio out, it provides the center for a home theater to be reckoned with.
