    CNET Review

    November 13, 2003

    The Good: Integrated HDTV tuner; independent input memory; decent postcalibration performance; memory-card slots for digital-photo display.

    The Bad: Poor grayscale tracking; scan-velocity modulation isn't user-removable; optimal video performance requires professional calibration.

    The Bottom Line: The affordable and versatile WS-55513 HDTV has a solid feature package anchored by a built-in high-def tuner.
