Introduction Editorial Note: This is a review of the Insignia NS-LDVD32Q-10A. Test results are for this model, but should indicate the general performance of other sizes in the NS-LDVDxxQ-10A series. The NS-LDVDxxQ-10A series includes the following models: NS-LDVD19Q-10A, NS-LDVD26Q-10A, and NS-LDVD32Q-10A.  Read here for more details on series differences. The Insignia NS-LDVD32Q-10A is a 720p LCD HDTV for the budget-minded. Surprisingly though, this Best Buy store brand TV is not a clunker. Capable of deep black levels and an impressive contrast ratio, we can recommend it as a model for the kids or the guest room, especially with the built-in DVD player. Sadly, other performance failures make it less suitable for your living room.     Page 1 of 18 Tour & Design   Section The Good The Bad Tour & Design Non-offensive design Non-swivel base Blacks & Whites Great, deep blacks and bright whites Terrible resolution scaling. This TV cannot handle 1080i and 1080p content.
