 "Great picture but the sound needs improving" 2009-09-26
By M. Corrado (Peekskill, NY)
I've done my research and I've asked around to those who had the products I was looking at. In the end I chose the SONY Bravia XBR. My brother gave it great reviews and I liked what I saw on his. He has the 40 inch and I've purchased the 46inch. Hooking it up was fairly easy for a woman who lives alone. The picture quality for HD is great. I love it. However, the sound quality is not as I had hoped. Some shows come in loud and clear while others, you have to put the volume up all the way and sit closer just to hear it well. I've gotten the home theater hooked up to it, as well, and that helps when watching DVD's. All in all, it's not a bad tv and I would recommend it to others. If SONY can improve on the sound quality this will be one supurb buy!

By Dr. Mark S. Lea (Rock Springs, WY United States)
Bought it in Feb 2008. Worked great until about a month ago when the right half of the screen goes dark. I bought it from Vanns. They tell me I'm SOL (my words)
I'm outside of the warrante. I think this TV would make a heck of a door stop!
Caveat emptor!!!!

 "close caption problems" 2009-09-22
By Marvin G. Dertien (eagle point oregon)
CLOSE CAPTION PROBLEMS - this sony model will not show close caption on high definition channels or ANY channel if you use a HDMI CABLE. So if you use close caption, this is not the set for you.

I purchased this product about a month ago for an amazing price which was the main con from CNET. I have cable programming so the signal is usually good. Here are my thoughts;
Pros:
Looks great
Price (Better than any place I visited and all competitors)
HD programming is amazing, Sports are fantastic
Scene and angle selections are fun and allow you to customize quickly
Fast shipping, no damage anywhere
Plenty of input options
Regular sound is good
Wireless and computer features are fun

Cons:
Regular programming is not very good in most cases

Overall, I would recommend this TV to anybody but always do the research and know what you are getting. I had a get together soon after I bought it and the guys just sat around and starred at it for a few hours. Great purchase before football season.


 "Sony Bravia HDTV" 2009-09-20
By M. K. Prout (Jupiter, FL United States)
After researching flat screen LCD's we decided on this one. There is a learning curve and it's worth it to take the time. Not just with sony but in general with HD's. We were sold on Amazon because of no sales tax and free shipping. Delivery was fast and efficient. The only dissatisfier to date is the mute button on the remote which is too small. Otherwise, we can use the Directv remote in combination. There are many nice features on the sony remote and I like the compatibility with my other sony devices.
The picture is so clear, we really love it.
