Introduction Editorial Note: This is a review of the Sylvania LD370SC8. Test results are for this model, but should indicate the general performance of other sizes in the LD series. The LD series includes the following models: LD200SL9 and LD195SL8.  Read here for more details on series differences. The Sylvania LD370SC8 is an inexpensive entry-level LCD HDTV. The set doesn't have great picture quality or audio, but it does have a DVD player. Unfortunately, even though it's inexpensive, its flaws outweigh its prive. You can find the Sylvania LD370SC8 for about $429.99.      Page 1 of 18 Tour & Design   Section The Good The Bad Tour & Design Doesn't wobble. Isn't attractive.
