What is a good brand for an LCD HDTV?

My Insignia 19E720A12 19" LCD-LED set is nearing the end of its 2-year factory warranty, but still works well except for one thing. I'm on Time Warner Cable, and the TV keeps putting local channel 3.1 on channel 116.1. Lately the set has been doing this with the PBS affiliate on channel 25.1 as well -- it will put the station on channel 74.1. (One of Insignia's support personnel told me recently in an email that this is a known issue with these TVs, and to use a cable box for channel tuning if the problem persists, or until a firmware update is issued to correct the problem.) However, the set still makes a beautiful picture (better than I ever had with NTSC analog) and works quite well otherwise, so I will keep it.

Insignia is a house brand of Best Buy for TVs and audio gear; these are meant to be "value line" items that supposedly offer more features than other brands in the same price range. Best Buy also carries televisions under the "Dynex" house brand. These TVs do not have as many features as the Insignia line; however, having had no experience with Dynex and going strictly on what I have read online about the brand, I cannot say whether they are better or worse, performance-wise, than Insignia. Knowing that Dynex is one step below Insignia, however, I would think the former could be of lower quality than the latter, so I'd buy another Insignia TV if and when mine goes bad.
