The Tv lives up to its Sony name delivering quality in every department. I love Sony hence travelled 100 mile to get this one at the right price. Very pleased with it. A brilliant feature is the HDMI connections which satisfies my Son and all his gaming/Sky and other connections needed. Well recommended
There simply is no other word for it! Received mine about a week ago, took some time to get to know it, and I am pleased to say this TV is nothing short of superb! Built in freeview and analogue tuners. Loads of connections (I mean loads!!!): 3 HDMI (yes 3!!!), 1 component HD, 1- composite, 2 scart, 1 s-video, 1 vga (for connecting an Xbox 360 or a pc for example). Great user interface, lots and lots of options to fiddle with, to get that picture perfect hi def picture! Backlight control, colour tone and noise reduction level are amongst many. This TV has a native resolution of 1366 x 768. (Please note that this TV will accept 1080i signals, NOT 1080p). Very bright and vivid display: booming colours, solid blacks. A very fluid and easy to use GUI (menu, for non geeks; unlike me). Speakers are fantastic as well. Each speakers puts out 10 watts of pure harmony! 4 different sound effect modes (Dolby virtual surround, BBE Viva, Dynamic and Standard). Adjustable Treble, Bass and Balance, perfect for all you hardcore audiophiles who want to tweak their settings until audiophilic perfection! The freeview tuner, unlike other freeview tuners on other HDTV's, auto updates any new channels that become available. I used to have a set top box freeview tuner, and you had to do it manually. To get rid of the annoying channel number in the top left hand corner of the screen, press the button located on the top left hand corner of the Sony remote. Press the button again to enable it. I've been using the TV with my Xbox 360 for a while now (through vga) and am quite annoyed that you can't do 50 Hz through a vga plug. So, those of you wishing to play your old Xbox games on this TV will have to be using either the component cables (which I don't recommend; poor picture quality compared to HDMI or vga) or be using an Xbox 360 elite (HDMI). Many of my friends have asked me if the virtual surround sound actually works. I can tell you now it does! I recently watched Star Wars Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith upscaled dvd, and the fight scene at the end sounds breathtaking with Dolby Virtual turned on. Audiophiles may prefer BBE Viva, but I can't really tell the difference, they both sound fantastic! The looks of the TV too, perfect! Bezel design = very stylish and modern looking. Even on the supplied stand, the TV looks the part. Capable of being hung on a wall too, so it will look even better. Warning though, use Sony endorsed brackets, I had a third party bracket, big mistake. TV nearly fell off wall, spotted it before absolute disaster :) HD content from blu-ray via PS3 looks, well, I can't put it into words. See for yourself. Upscaled DVDs look great too (I use a Philips DVP5960), but obviously not as good as blu-ray or hd-dvd (haven't had chance to see a hd-dvd yet). The scene at the end of 300 where the millions of arrows fall through the sky, aimed at Leonidas, is a perfect example of how detailed this TV is. You will be hard pressed to find a TV with the wealth of features, the yield of quality that this TV has. The similar priced Toshiba model is good (my friend has 1 in his front room) but I just think that this TV is more detailed. I am serious when I say that I CANNOT find a SINGLE fault with this TV at all. IT IS THAT GOOD! So, if you're a tech-head, or even just a newcomer to the HDTV scene, this TV is perfect!Read full review
This is a super item, its classed as Mid Level, but with an 8000:1 contrast ratio the colour is rich and deep, It supports 1080 Interlaced and a 50hz refresh rate, if your looking for a good mid level flat screen with out forking out for a 100hz 1080 Progressive System then this is the one. The only difference between this S model and the Sony Center Only T model is the T model has built in Virtual Surround sound, but for me I use a real surround sound so its a good saving to get this one.
The size is just right for the average size room and not too intrusive. The TV having a black surround give better vision and is astheically pleasing. The T.V. was easy to set up and the controls are reasoanly easy to understand. Picture quality was better than expected and the colour very good. In comparison to other televisions of the same type and size I consider the Sony to be generally of higher quality. The service book gave adequate information on the television set up and we encoundered no difficulties in tuning the set in to the existing airiel
