- Haier HL47K
- Haier is hardly a household name in the U.S. among TV manufacturers, although you might know the brand through its air conditioner business. Nonetheless, the HL47K isn't the first Haier HDTV we've reviewed. That distinction belongs to the otherwise less-than-distinct 42EP14S, a 42-inch plasma that sold for $2,300 in...

- Mitsubishi LT-46144
