Sansui HDLCDVD320 or something else?

My Sanyo 32" Tube has given me fits for years and the warranty finally paid out on it offering me this TV or $599.99 cash. Which would you take? I'm thinking the cash and get something a little nicer like a Toshiba Regza, but I can't find this TV for less than $650 so maybe it's worth it. Thoughts?

I would take the 599.99 and put in a few hundred more, and pick out a better TV, like the REGZA, or Sony, or Samsung, etc. I've seen "Sansui" LCD's and they don't look very good, at least compared to the other brands I mentioned. Years ago, Sansui used to be a very respected manufacturer of high end audio equipment from Japan, but, they closed their doors and sold their name. I think the most recent "owner" of the Sansui brand name is a company from India.

I went ahead and took the cash and ordered the Toshiba Regza 32" from Amazon for $718. No tax or shipping so less than the 26" Regza would have been locally.
