Editors' note : The NS-DXA1-APT is nearly identical to the Insignia NS-DXA1 , except the NS-DXA1-APT adds the ability to pass analog signals to a TV and has slightly better sound. Otherwise, the reviews are virtually identical.

Solid video quality and reception; easy-to-use design, especially for digital TV amateurs; decent aspect ratio controls for handling wide-screen programs on standard TVs; attractive design; remote can control the TV's power; analog pass-through.

Program guide is very basic; small remote control buttons aren't ideal for seniors.
