Sony Bravia KDL-46X2000 Review 2008-05-10 23:13:33 The Sony
Bravia KDL-46X2000 is the biggest set to date from Sony’s so-far exceptional new Bravia range.

Sony KDS-60A2000 Review 2008-05-10 23:09:57 The Sony
KDS-60A2000 has tighter dimensions than earlier Sony SXRD rear-projection televisions, thanks to Sony’s wise decision to move the speakers from the sides to the bottom. Its big 60-inch screen is surrounded by a thin, black frame that’s set forward from the mostly silver cabinet. A subtle strip of translucent blue-green runs the width of the cabinet’s front, sitting above the perfora
Sony KDS-R70XBR2 Review 2008-05-10 23:07:43 The KDS-R70XBR2 is part of Sony
’s second generation lineup of XBR-class SXRD displays. Although it’s not exactly cheap at $7800, this is a far cry from the $13K required to take home the original 70″ SXRD RPTV, the Qualia 006. And this set has a newer, smaller SXRD chip (for better fill factor), and a dynamic iris. The flagship XBR series’ separate themselves from the A2000 series with the

Sony Bravia KDL-V32XBR1 Review 2008-05-10 22:59:54 The Sony
Bravia KDL-V32XBR1 offers some interesting high-end features that help explain its high price. However, its image quality, though generally good, falls short of what you see on some less expensive LCD TVs.The big attraction of the Sony Bravia KDL-V32XBR1 is its well-conceived physical design. Details like the CableCard slot and the neatly secured remote battery compartment make this a TV
Sony BRAVIA KDL-32V2000 Review 2008-05-10 22:58:22 Sony BRAVIA
KDL-32V2000, it’s all very well having great picture processing technology going on behind the scenes - but the panel itself is of course equally important. The 8ms panel is excellent and if you’re watching films, I think it’s safe to say that you won’t see any motion-blurred images whatsoever - blur on the new BRAVIA is reduced to a trace. If you play a fast 60fps video game, Read more:Sony
