Great TV without the XBR price tag I've been considering the 46V2500 for some time now. After reading the extensive forum thread on AVS as well as checking the monitor out for myself in stores, I was convinced this was the monitor for me. For those of you who are considering the XBR2/XBR3 sets, the only MAJOR differences include the glass bezel and a few additional internal settings and features (some that you probably won't even utilize much less care about). The V2500 series uses the same exact LCD panel as the XBR series. Just...

Sony 46" LCD vs Samsung's 46" LCD After doing quite of bit of research recently, physically in person as well as on-line, I ended up purchasing this Sony (KDL-46V2500) flat panel for several reasons and I am extremely happy with my decision.
Having a bit of personal preference towards LCDs beforehand, I was not convinced enough overall in the end to switch over to Plasmas.
Now, in comparing LCDs, the best thing I could do was to sit in front of both abovementioned LCDs in one of the movie chairs at my l...

Sony Bravia......BRAVO! After waiting just over a month to get this TV, all I can say is it was definetly worth the wait. Part of the reason it took so long I believe is the timing of the order. I ordered it on December 15, right before the holidays, so maybe that slowed it down some, but regardless of the time it took, the TV really is amazing.
I did about 3 months research by reading all the reviews on Amazon as well as other websites. By the way thanks for the first 15 or so reviews I read on here before pur...

Great TV But Mine Does Have Some Clouding I just got my 46V2500 a few days ago and the image quality really blows me away. When I went to the local store to compare models, the Bravia line always looked much better than the other makers.
The design is nice and slender (I actually like the look of this model over the pricier XBR models)...the back of the TV has an easy layout for all the cables. I like the fact that the power button is on the top of the TV so my kid can't go turning the TV on and off which was a favorite p...

Awesome TV I purchased this TV about a month ago and upgraded my Directv to HD. I have been looking for years. I finally picked this one because the 46" recently became available and Sony definitly has the best picture. This one also is full HD with 1080p and has a built-in HD tuner along with everything else you could possibly want. Seeing my first football game on this 46" HD was almost a religious experience. The picture quality with clarity and color is stunning. I have never been much of a movie ...

Great 1080i rendering I've had this TV now for 3 weeks and every time I see an HD program, it looks extra special, even the mundane. HD Sports is bright and a pleasure to watch even compared to the Panansonic plasma due to the bright images.
The TV was delivered by Eagle Freight, unpacked and moved to my living roon down 2 flights of stairs. I had professional installation on the wall using a universal wall mount from Mustang.
The 2 HDMI and component inputs were enought to connect all my ...

Superb I looked at dozens of TVs. I also compared how they looked with a regular digital/cable signal and not just a HD signal (I had the TV guy shift the whole store to a standard digital signal from HD signal) and this is where you'll see that this TV stands apart from the rest. Apparently Sony uses some type of filtering technology to clean up the non-HD signals. Keep in mind we still have a few years to go before everything will come across in HD.
I can't imagine anyone not being ha...

Without equal on HD yet amazingly GREAT and watchable on SD Like most of the people reviewing, I spent my time looking around before buying. I first saw this tv in Costco in November. I was shocked that my wife and I both loved the picture. It was amazing how much better it looked compared to the DLP sets and plasmas. Living at 7500 feet, plasma was not really an option.
Becuase of Costco's liberal return policy, we bought it then and there. Its nice that the unit does NOT have to kept upright, like a glass plasma. Out of the box, you...

Beautiful set but clouds are a deal breaker I've owned this set for a few weeks now and I am consistently blown away by the picture quality. True, standard definition programming doesn't impress, but it won't impress on any 1080p set as there's simply nowhere for those low resolution images to hide - you see them in all their ugliness. HD programming, however, is simply breathtaking, and surfing the Internet and gaming in 1080p has to be seen to be believed. This LCD has brightness to spare and the colors are simply incredible. Vivid ...
