This product was priced very fairly and arrived at my house in perfect condition within a week of ordering.

i love my sony bravia! its beautiful when its turned off and when its on, it has the sweetest picture/audio(surround sound) quality ever. my husband and i bought this tv for our christmas/ anniversary gift to ourselfs. i did alot of shopping around- this was the best price and amazon shipping is super fast!

Ordered this TV around Christmas and it arrived on Dec 30th. Packed well and rec'd in excellent condition. There is a yellow sheet in the box that explains how to hook up the two power cords. Note: The TV sits on the subwoofer and it serves as a stand. The sheet describes with pictures how to plug in the subwoofer, but not the TV. There is a big red X over the power cord hookup for the TV. The layman would then think the TV gets its power from the connection to the subwoofer/stand. Not so. My first call was to Sony to ask why no picture. Sony had no idea. Plugging in the TV solved the problem! -duh?-then why is the yellow sheet in the box taped to the TV? The second call had to do with the subwoofer and surround (SS) not working. It does not appear to say it in the book, but the surround will only work when the TV audio setting is in Matrix. When playing a movie, change the setting to Movie. Still, the surround sound and subwoofer are of moderate value. I would recommend leaving off the subwoofer for the higher price (N model) and get the M model and use your own surround sound with amp. Lastly, there is the remote control. This is the worst design I've ever seen. Skinny and the channel/volume controls are at the bottom. So you can't operate it with one hand unless you hold the remote at the very bottom. The mute button is a recessed switch at the very bottom. Why recessed? All the TV setup controls are up at the top where one usually operates the TV. The remote should be wider and flat like an All-in-One remote. So, in conclusion, I am well satisfied with the picture and the sound is not any better than some Samsungs I've recently seen that do not have the subwoofer and SS. You would think the SS comes alive during an adventure movie, but it does not unless you turn the volume way up.

This is a fantastic product. It was very easy to set up, and the picture is great, even without an HD cable box. The sound is very good, and we don't need to take advantage of it because we use it in the bedroom. It very easily serves a room that is 11' by 18'. It would be suitable for a small living room as well.

Also, it is very reasonably priced for what it provides: superior sound and picture!

Our first LCD TV. Really great picture quality and the built in surround sound capability is excellent without all the clutter and expense of adding a theater type system. Highly recommend this item for a normal size or small room or for someone who doesn't want a monster size screen.
