Exceptional Sony 36 inch Stereo Color TV Have you been shopping lately? Standard 4:3 screen aspect ratio CRT Television sets are becoming a thing of the past. One major audio/video retailer in my area no longer carries standard CRT TV sets. In other words they carry no tube TV sets, just flat screen sets. They only carry 16:9 (screen aspect ratio) LCD and Plasma sets! I find this sudden transition incredible, unbelievable and very naive. I prefer a large 4:3 CRT screen. For me they are much brighter and more vivid. The Sony KD36FS170 ...

Liked my 13 inch Sony I purchased the 36 inch Didn't want to cough up twice the price for pasma or LCD and really didn't have the 700$ difference for HD.Have no regrets about getting the KD-36FS170.Fits the bill perfectly!DVD,Digital Cable and even greater with the Dish this is last of the CRT's.Sitting away 12 feet the picture quality is short of stunning.Sound is OK,and you will never move this baby by yourself.

Best CRT picture I've ever seen Pro's - Stunning picture (especially with digital media),This is the best non-HD picture I've ever seen (I find LCD TV's to have cold unreal color & contrast). This TV went for over $1200 originally, so $600 is a steal. Plus you have Sony Quality & service. I've owned a lot of TV's & Sony lasts the longest. Picture is very adjustable, many settings. Cons - over 200 pounds, very heavy & bulky, took 2 STRONG men to move it. (quality ...

Great TV TV is working great, Picture quality is excellent. Only problem we had was the supplier charged for expedited shipping, and the unit was delivered in 10 days. Yes the tv weights 200lbs, but the supplier knows this and if they are unable to deliver expedited, that shouldn't be an option and the customer should never be charged.

A 250-POUND GORRILLA... With 1080p LCDs and plasmas already available on the market right now, WHY would you still wanna buy this contraption?
It's like 2 feet thick and weighs 250 pounds... Ouch!
Just imagine having to haul this massive thing up and down the stairs in a few years from now!
With the packaging materials included, this thing is gonna weigh more than 250 pounds.
Consider renting a FORKLIFT if you must buy this TV!

Great bargain while Sony discontinues the CRTs I went into a walk in store today and picked up this unit for $539 (The store employees picked it up and put it in my mini-van). It was the last factory sealed unit in the store. I like the non-hi-def picture tube because it does not magnify the resolution limitations of standard DVDs and retail VHS movies, like the Hi-Definition sets do. Yet, the picture quality is stunning. My parents are still using their Sony 32" CRT, they bought 15 years ago, and the picture quality is still excellent. ...
