Great TV but NO S-VIDEO connector!
I agree with the other reviewer. If you read the Amazon technical description above you'll see that it is being advertised as having S-VIDEO, but it absolutely does not! (I confirmed the model number on the back of my TV, too.) I talked to a salesperson in Circuit City about this (while I was shopping for this TV) and I was shown LAST year's model which actually had an S-VIDEO connection -but they were out of stock and they don't make that older version anymore. Why this newer one does not ha...

A good overall TV
Sound quality seems to be its real strength. But beware: it does not, contrary to what's indicated on this site and others, have an S-video input. So if you're hoping to connect a DVD player or camera to this unit using an S-video cable, this TV is not for you.

Perfect for watching my stories!
This is a swell TV. Living in an "urban" area, we have a very "small" apartment and went for the 20 inch set which works just fine for us since we don't have a rec-room or Rooms-to-go living room to put it in. DVD's look great on it as does our DV cam and the playstation game machine. It rocks. Not a single issue with it.

Forget about S-Video, use COMPONENT!!!
To those complaining missing S-video: component input is much better!
DVDPlayer, PS2 and other *MODERN" devices have component output, which serves the best quality!

A new set for the bedroom.
Well this set is replacing an aged 13 inch set that has been sent out to pasture. So the difference is really noticable. I had read the reviews on this site before buying the Sony and I am dissappointed that Sony did not keep the S-video hookup with this TV. The component video hookups are great as mentioned by another reviewer but that does me no good whatsoever with connecting my DirecTV box to the TV which is what the majority of the owners wanted to do with the S video anyway. There may ...

Wonderful Television. Worth the Price.
Sony WEGA TVs are relatively more expensive than the competition, but they are worth the price. My 20" WEGA is very nice. The picture is superb and the sound is much better than TVs of the same class. It is true that it does not have an S-video input but only RCA (composite) and component inputs, in addition to the usual F-pin input.
If you look at a WEGA too close to the screen, then the picture looks grainy, but if you step back to a normal distance, then you will see that the resolution...

Great Television at a Oustanding Price
I must say, I was a little hesitant buying this TV. It was slightly over my budget but it was worth the while. The image is great, the sound is even better. The remote has a nifty features that allows it to stand upright, which makes it harder lose!
The only downside might be the lack of S-Video, which is mentioned in the other reviews. However, it has component connectors, which is better than S-Video anyway.
If this is the size you are looking for, I highly suggest yo...

Awesome!
This set has very high contrast, amazing apparent definition for an SD set, exceptional geometry (at least horizontal), easy to use menu system. It is much improved over my earlier Sonys.
HD is simply not needed in the 20" size in my opinion, especially with the composite, or component signal from a satellite reciever (such as Dish Network) and at the 7' viewing distance I'm using with this set.
This set has no S-VIDEO input as does the 24" model, but if you can see th...

Outstanding SONY 20Inch TV
The Sony KV-20FS120 20" FD Trinitron WEGA Flat Screen TV is a great 4:3 aspect ratio CRT set. These will not be around much longer. The picture looks great, but the picture for this type of TV's future looks dim. LCD flat screen sets and Plasma sets are taking over the market. LCD and Plasma sets are priced out of range for the average person so I don't get the overnight transition and logic to force you to buy them. A basic Tube TV with a 4:3 aspect ratio like this Sony 20 inch set is clearly a...

One of the worst TV's I've ever had....
Shame on Sony! I had a 10 year old Sony Trinitron (which was great) that broke, so I bought this mess of a TV. Granted, I have basic, analog cable, but come on! There are 4 color choices - Pro, Vivid, Standard and Movie - and one is just as bad as the other. You have to change these and the other Picture settings for each TV program. The face color is either too red or too green. I don't if it's the comb filters or what, but the whites (letters, clothes, whatever) are all out of focus... I...
