great HDTV May 16, 2010 I have had this HDTV for 2 month and this product is great I have had no picture problems or any sound problems the tv is on sometimes 12 hours on the weekends and it is working very good and I am happy with product and you cannot get a better price for any other tv out there right now. I shop around for about for about 3 months and decided on the toshiba 55V650 because the price and quality is the best I found.

CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!! May 08, 2010 Toshiba REGZA 55ZV650U 55-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV with ClearScan 240, Black Buy this ZV650 model if you want a refurbished TV and a disappointment.
I rarely write any review due to my bad written English, but I am doing this to WARN others so they won't make the same mistake that I did.
First off let me say that I did some research before I bought this Toshiba ZV650 series TV. This TV got my attention when I was in Signal Hills Costco. It was a 47" positioned between a 46" Sony and a 46" LG. I reset all 3 TV's picture setting to standard, yet this Toshiba's picture was still much better than the Sony and the LG that priced about [...] more. But I need a 50" or bigger due to my big living room. So I went home and did research on Amazon and saw the warning about the sound problem. But just like other Amazon reviewers and purchasers before me, I thought it was just random issue or those folks had a bad luck. So I ignored the WARNING and bought it any way. I was DEAD WRONG.
The first day I got the TV, I watched Netflix and DVD via HDMI cable. I get that echo or gobble sound problem about 3 times within 2 hours. Yet I did not want to return the TV because the picture quality was amazing, plus I got the assurance knowing that I can always call Toshiba to get the portable 2 GB USB storage to upgrade my firmware and this problem will go away (I know this from reading Amazon reviews and posts from other sites), but I was WRONG AGAIN.
After a week, I started to get annoy by this problem, so I called Toshiba and tell them about the USB to upgrade the firmware. Toshiba did not deny or acknowledge that this is a known problem. The only thing they said was that they will contact their repair center for me. After calling every week for 7 weeks, finally their repair center contacted me and said that they have ordered a sound card to replace it. They said they never heard of the USB firmware upgrade that I read on the web to fix this problem. So today they called me and said they want to take my TV away to their repair shop. Judging from how rude the repair guy spoke, I refused to have them take away my brand new TV to their shop, and I have plenty of reasons to back it up. Let me give you a few examples: I sent my HP top of the line laptop to get fixed, when it came back, 3 PC card side covers were missing. I complaint to HP, they said I should have taken those covers out before shipping to them. I told them those covers are part of the laptop. What would you do if a mechanic tells you to take the fenders out of your car before taking it to do oil change? Later on my HP laptop was filled with dirt and dust because of those open slots. About 6 months ago I sent my Toshiba laptop to get fixed. I had a clear plastic taped to the display to protect the screen. When it came back, the screen protector was removed and the display had a scratch about 2 inches at the right area of the screen. I reported to Toshiba, they said that the scratch was already there when they got it and they never saw any screen protector. Just one more recent example: I have a 2 year old Honda that had an engine block cracked and the anti-freeze leak thru it. I took it to Honda dealer and left it there for a month because they had to order engine for me. At the time I drove my car out of the dealership after the repair was done, I turned the radio on. My ear drums were about the blow because the radio volume was on max and sub woofer volume was on max. After further inspection, I noticed that all my FM1 presets were set to Spanish stations, but my FM2 presets still had all my fav stations. However, the sub-woofer was blown and rattled so bad that I had to unplug it. I took it back to the dealer; they said that I set these things up to get free speakers replacement just like the free engine. I loved my premium sound system but not any more. Bottom line: your words against theirs.
I can tell you more horror stories about bad repair services, but you got my point. Repair people came to fix TV at my home is nothing new; I had this done before with my other TV that I bought from Costco. I don't know why these guys can't replace a sound card in my living room. Maybe they need a hydraulic lifter? Right now I feel like a fool who paid a full price on refurbished TV. Also, some reviewer said that if you plug your sound out to a surround sound system, the problem went away. I tried that too but it did not work because the problem is not the internal speakers. The problem is the circuit that interfaces between HDMI cable and the sound system. If the HDMI sound circuitry is bad, regardless what speakers you use, it will do the same thing. For now the work around is to pause DVD or Netflix, switch to TV, and switch back. FYI: I do not have cable box with HDMI so I don't have problem with TV at all. If I just let the bad sound continues, it will last about 30 to 90 sec, but it's just annoying when you try to pay attention to what people say in the movies. I also could replace HDMI cable with those multiple color component cables, but that would defeat the purpose of having 4 HDMI ports. That is just lame.
Conclusion: The picture is amazing and the price is great. But if you want to keep calling Toshiba weekly and have some strangers take your brand new TV away and bring it back with scratches and makes you feel like you are buying a refurbished TV with the full price, be my guest. But know that you are being WARNED. I don't remember who the author was but there was a saying that said, "You don't live long enough to make all the mistakes, so let other people make them for you and you just learn from them".
