Plug and Play, Easy Navigation, Crisp picture, Varieties of connection First, I would like to say that this TV is a beauty. It's easy to setup. It took me around 10 minutes to set it up which include opening of the box, moving away all the styro foam, hauling it to the TV stand and connecting it with HDMI cables.
Second, I have Sony PSP and this TV's navigation's is very similar to the PSP. Hence, in order to navigate through the menu is a walk in the park. In addition, short cuts on the remote is good enough for me.
Third, Crisp Picture (stripe t...

One month so far I've been living with my 40W series for a month so far and while I agree with the generally positive reviews posted, a few qualifications are in order.
1. The picture quality when hooked up to analog sources is worse than with an analog tv. This is true for all HDTVs, but be prepared for this. When I first set this TV up, I had it hooked to my Dish Network non-hdtv receiver and the picture quality was poor. Now I have a Dish Network 722 hidef receiver and the picture quality is ...

Its a Sony alright You really get what you pay for. I looked at the cheaper and lower Sony models and the resolution at 16000 is why I chose this one. I checked Best Buy and Ciruit City and they told me they match each others prices but can't compeate with Amazon. Worth the 5 day delivery wait saved $300.

I love Sony.

A cinematic experience The quality of the picture this display is capable of producing
is simply outstanding. The colors are clear and vibrant, and the
circuitry transitions smoothly from one scene to another. Esthetically,
the design of the set is elegantly simple, and functional. There are
plenty of alternative connections for now and the future. The sound is
rather mediocre, but pleasant enough if you simply turn the treble
down. Easy to read and navigate displays, and a lighted...

KDL-40W3000 40" 1080p LCD HDTV After much research we bought this TV in September 2007 for our den. We have been a Sony TV fan and this one kept upto our expectations or much more. The HD picture clarity is so good and life like ( movies or sceneries)that we wish that we bought a much bigger size.As expected, this TV has to be connected with HDMI cables for best picture quality. The viewing angle is very good. If one spends a few minutes with the manual,it is very user friendly. While the inbuilt speakers are fairly good, we ...

Sony 40 inch LCD TV Having a family room with one complete wall of windows, I was never able to watch a TV against the opposite wall. This Sony 40W3000 has a non reflective coating that has minimized relection and glare beyond anyone's expectations. If you're having similiar problems, I recommend you try this 40 inch or the 46 inch version (46W3000) for an exceptional HDTV picture beyond comparison.

LCD vs Plasma We had a 32 inch Sony KDL2500, a very nice LCD as LCD's go, we wanted a 40 inch LCD and purchased the 40W3000 to replace the 32 in a media room.
This TV's purpose is multifold for use as a TV, Games Xbox/PS3, PC, and Movies in HD through both the Xbox/PS3, hence the 1080P
First I must state, that after viewing the Pats/Chargers Game in HD on 20 Jan on both my Pioneer Elite 50 Inch Plasma and this TV that anyone can say anything they want but Plasma still rules for absolute picture qu...

It makes me smile I purchased the Sony KDL 40w3000 a couple months ago and have loved it since day one. It was easy to assemble and with the help of a mount, now sits comfortably on my living room wall.
I currently connect a PlayStation 3 to the television, and it delivers an amazing picture. Both DVDs (upscaled on the PS3) and Blu-ray Discs look beautiful. The Planet Earth Series on Blu-Ray consistently leaves me slack jawed and drooling.
I compared the 40w3000's picture quality to Sha...

Sony Bravia KDL-40W3000 40" 1080p LCD HDTV The Sony Bravia W-Series is so versatile and user friendly as well. The picture quality is superior, vivid, vibrant, natural color as stated, and absolutely no reflection or ghost image like the XBR2. The XBR4 with FHD 120 Hz high frame rate capability might corrects this problem but I have not experience this problem with the W-Series so far. The contrast ratio isn't important to me since there is no standard way of measuring this technology. The W-Series has 16000:1 contrast ratio, which it's ...
