DT’s ‘Better Than Socks’ Holiday Giveaway: Sceptre 32-inch 3D LED TV

Sceptre Giveaway headerIs there any better holiday gift than a TV? Not as far as we’re concerned. That’s why we’re pretty excited to be giving one away this year.

Up for grabs is a Sceptre E320BV-FHDD 32-inch 3D LCD HDTV. It offers 1080p resolution, 60Hz native refresh rate, three HDMI inputs, a USB port, 3D capability, and comes with two pair of passive 3D glasses in the box. This TV also works well as a computer monitor, thanks to a dedicated RGB input.

At less than 2-inches thick, this TV should look great mounted on the wall, or you can opt to set it up on its included stand. However you install it, this unit should make for a great bedroom, office or bonus room TV.

To put your name in the hat, just leave a comment below telling us where this TV would go in your home and/or what TV it would replace. We’ll close the contest and announce the winner on December 30, 2012.

Don’t forget to check out the rest of DT’s “Better Than Socks” Holiday Giveaways all month long. Good luck!

The 4 best long range TV antennas in 2024
The Antennas Direct ClearStream 2Max mounted outdoors.

You don’t need to pay a cable provider for access to your local stations. As long as you have an HD TV antenna, you’ll be able to pick up broadcasts from whatever towers are in-proximity. But what if the nearest monolith isn’t beaming PBS into your living room? It sounds like you may want to invest in a long range TV antenna.

Where traditional antennas are designed for indoor use, long range models typically do their best work when mounted outdoors, high up on a structure. You’ll also want to make sure it’s aimed toward the towers you’d like to grab stations from.

Sennheiser’s HD 620S closed-back cans have an open-back soul
Sennheiser HD 620S closed-back headphones.

Sennheiser has a new set of wired audiophile headphones, and while they may look a lot like the brand's famous open-back cans, the HD 620S are completely enclosed. They can be preordered starting May 7 for $350, with shipping beginning on June 6.

The HD 620S are something of a departure for Sennheiser, which has traditionally stuck with open-back headphone designs. The move was prompted by customer feedback, according to the company. “The hi-fi community has clamored for a headphone with the best traits from our 600 series," said Jermo Koehnke, audiophile product manager, "yet isolates them from distractions at work, home, or in-between.”

Sling TV slips below 2 million subscribers, and it seems OK with that

There’s a fallacy in the term “Streaming Wars” — a phrase I’ve never liked — in that it’s all about growth at all costs. That the only way to “win” said “war” is to be the biggest streaming service. That’s the game we’ve been taught by the likes of the Googles and Facebooks of the world, and it’s undoubtedly a big part of why Google’s YouTube TV sits atop the heap of live-streaming services with more than 8 million subscribers.

Then there’s Sling TV. The legacy service has been slowly, but consistently losing subscribers over the years, while always hovering at just above 2 million. That’s changed, though, according to its first-quarter 2024 earnings, which were announced by new parent company EchoStar. Sling TV finished with 1.92 million subs, down from 2.06 million at the end of 2023, and down about 8.5% from the first quarter of 2023. It hasn't been below 2 million since I started tracking it in 2018.
