none
Weakness:
where should I start. This piece of junk was less than three years old. Icalled a so-called "Sony repair center. They charged me $150.00 and basically did nothing. So I called Sony and they did even less. The repair center wanted $500.00 a tube to "maybe" fix the problem. Went and brought a panisonic. To bad Sony I will never own one of your products again and will tell anyone who will listen about your lousy service. Customer Service SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Everything.

Silver cabinet WAF is bad. This is really one great TV.After the adjustment period from years of watching a regular tube tv;i don't think you can go back.With just regular comcast cable the picture is very good to excellent.DVD's are just like being at a movie theatre.The flash focus feature seems to work very well and the sound is surprisingly good(although i do have a very good Snell home theater setup i use for movies and concert DVD's).I had all the usual concerns about a rear projector(off angle viewing,burn in,room light conditions);but this TV has exceeded all my expectations and then some.This unit gives you a wide viewing area;very good internal sound;and a brilliant picture even with just regular cable.I find the remote easy to use also.Will be getting high def box soon;and have seen high def on this unit a friend has and the picture quality is stunning.If your looking rear projection take a good hard look at this Sony....it's tremendous.

Strength:
Picture quality with analog cable looks great(especially after break-in) Not that expensive at all
Weakness:
no back-lit remote I have been the victim of 2 previous model flickering sets. After searching the web for reviews on the 510, I found nothing bad. I am very pleased with this new set. Better picture than the hs500 and ws500. "Out of the box" it looked great and just when I thought I was in the clear, the set looked even better after the break-in period. For all those with old flicker problems, I suggest you ask Sony or your dealer to replace your problem set with the 510. Similar Products Used: kp-51hs500 kp-51ws500 |

Strength:
Great picture w/ use of Satellite
Weakness:
The viewing angles can be tough, especially with some back lighting... I had purchased the previous years model, prior to knowing all the Fluttering and Hue problems associated with the KP51WS500. I was hoping my unit did not have any of these problems, however since this was a display unit, I thought the salespeople would have seen this problem, which was not caught until I had it delivered and found out within a day that this was a problem on my set. So now I have the new model year and it is a huge difference in quaility. The hue is perfect and there is no "fluttering", now I know this is still fairly new, however I have not heard any bad reviews from other sites on this TV. I just am at the point of break-in and will it have it adjusted by the professional.... Similar Products Used: Def tech BP8's Def tech C2 Outlaw Reciver Toshiba SD5700 DVD |
