Toshiba 19AV500U 19″ TVs Review
The Toshiba 19AV500U is a great little TV for fairly close viewing (have it in the kitchen). Very sharp picture, works great right out of the box – no need to fine-tune etc. Easy to wall mount. Built-in digital tuner – automatically found both digital and analog channels on the cable.

the Toshiba 19AV500U has the most trouble maintaining good reception from several of the HD channels. I’ve tried hooking it up to the other antenna leads in the house and results were the same so I’ve concluded the tuner sensitivity is not as good as my other TVs. However, when locked-in to an HD channel the picture quality is excellent. The Toshiba is very attractive with the piano black bezel and adjustable stand. The interface is simple and intuitive, setup was a breeze. I found the “DynaLight” feature annoying as it seems to randomly change the overall brightness ever so slightly too often. At first I thought there was something wrong with the backlight because of this “flickering” effect. I discovered that DynaLight is enabled by default. When I turned it off in the Advanced Video menu the problem was resolved. Overall this is a very good budget priced LCD HDTV from one of the best names in the business. This is a darned tootin’ fine TV.
