Anybody familiar with this brand? The 27" is on sale for 650 and I'm getting the itch.....

 

Never heard of it. Who sells it (store)?

Personally I stay far away from the off-brands... but that's just me...

 

My uncle has a Proton CRT that's 20+ years old and it still looks great. I don't know anything about their LCD's though.

Edit: Just noticed there's a second R in the brand you're looking for. Are you sure it's Protron?

 

Yep, it's "Protron". They are at Sears and on line at Crutchfield.

 

In that case, I have to give it a just for a blatantly misleading name.

 

...which is why Proton is suing Prosonic Group (makers of the Protron LCDs) for trademark infringement. Having said that, the initial reviews of the Protron LCDs have been pretty positive but their current BBB rating is "F". Not a good sign...
