anyone have a subscription to consumer reports?

Can you find out for me what are the top rated 20" flat screen LCD TV's? I think I like the Sharp Aquos, but not sure how it's rated. Thanks much Chat Icon

1 Sony Wega KLV-32M1 $1500 32 15:9 2/1 1
2 Sharp Aquos LC-26GD4U $1600 26 15:9 1/0 2
3 Sony Wega KDL-32XBR950 $2975 32 16:9 2/1 2 •
4 Sony Wega KLV-26HG2 $1200 26 16:9 2/0 1
5 Panasonic TC-26LX50 $1500 26 15:9 2/1 2

For the Aquos:

RECOMMENDATIONS & NOTES
A CR Quick Pick for among the best choices in a midsized TV. This HD set displayed very good picture quality for HD, DVD playback, and regular TV through an S-video connection, but it was fair with regular TV through an antenna/cable hookup. An integrated HDTV, it can accept a CableCard for some digital-cable programming without the need for a cable box. (It can also receive over-the-air digital TV signals, without the need for an external decoder, if the signal reception is good enough.) Viewing angle not as wide as with some others, so picture may appear dimmer if you're not watching from directly in front of the set. Sound quality was excellent, unlike most of the LCD sets we tested.

That was for the 26" - it was rated #2, the 20 is rated with only Good Ratings & one Fair.

Thanks, but those are all bigger than 20". Do they rate them by size or just by category? Can you look at just the 20" ones? I appreciate the help!

They rate them by quality. The Aquos 20" is rated 29th, 46th & 47th depending on what model.
