Great TV, Great Audio |
I'll just state why I picked this TV over a similarly featured Samsung with a lower price.
1. Sony reliability. Sony TVs usually score high for reliability. I also know somebody who installs home theaters and he stated he has never had any complaints about Sony LCDs, Plasmas, TVs, etc. I'd rather spend more for a TV that doesn't break than deal with hassles of getting it repaired under an extended warranty (which I did buy).
2. The audio on this TV is good. A lot of LCDs out there have horrid speakers on them - no bass, hard to understand voices, etc. I don't have a separate speaker system so good speakers were required. More importantly, even if I did have a receiver+speakers, do I want to turn them on to watch the news, Oprah, and reruns of Magnum P.I.? Do you want the speaker system on when your kids are watching cartoons at 8AM on Saturday?
3. The picture quality. I think Samsung LCDs have deeper blacks and richer colors. At the same time, I've always thought the picture on Samsung TVs to look over processed and fake, just like when you see an advertisement in a magazine and it's obvious somebody really overdid the photoshop work. I think this TV produces an image that is more true to life. I prefer the picture quality this TV produces.
4. The screen is not glossy. Samsung seems to be in the habit of using glossy screens for their more expensive TVs. Unfortunately glossy TVs also reflect daylight from windows. This Sony TV was placed in a room with a lot of windows and there are no issues with the light coming into the room.
It's a great TV. I have no complaints. |

READ BEFORE BUYING ANY SONY LCD |
|
I bought this tv and returned it a week later for a samsung. Sonys have a known issue with what is called clouding... An even backlight that makes the screen look cloudy when looking at a dark screen. (The PS3 menu screen and star wars are 2 great examples.) Their are numerous forums on this topic, just type sony lcd cloudy in google and you will get numerous results. (Even if you sub the word samsung in gor the word sony, you still get results listing sony products.) Sony has even admitted their is a problem and have done nothing to fix it. Consider this when buying any sony TV, event the high end XBR's suffer from this issue. |

Sony Bravia V Series 46" |

I love the picture and TV. The only thing concerning delivery. You need to attach the stand to the TV. Delivery man was no help, he didn't even want to wait to see it the TV worked. |

Excellent TV |
|
It's an excellent TV overall... the only negative I see is that if your TV has more than one volume control, you better not turn all the way up on the TV's volume and almost nothing with the other... you will hear some hissing sound from the TV. |

Great picture, audio. |
For the price offered by AMZN without the shipping cost and tax, this is a very good deal (1599$).
PROS:
a) Both the 1080i input and the non-hd (from my dvd player) pictures look great.
b) Audio sounds a lot better than the other LCD TVs.
c) Sony's on screen menus are intuitive.
d) Has a wide viewing angle. Without any glossy reflection(like the samsung 46a650), I can see this one from my kitchen (even on my well lit living room)
e) Didn't feel the lack of 120Hz (of 46W4100 or the samsung a650 models) on a football highlight on ESPN HD.
So overall, I am really happy with my purchase.
