Strength:

Great Picture and sound is not bad either. Seems much bigger than 32 inches.

Weakness:

Weight. Its too heavy.

I shopped for a long time and decided upon this one. It is a bit more expensive than others that I have looked at but I liked the flat screen. The colors are great and so is the picture. It could have a better PIP though. The window seems kind of small on this large screen. I have a room that is about 20x20 and it works well in there. It is a great everyday television but is at its best when playing DVDs. Oh my!! I have this plugged into a Denon AVR 95 pumping through a six piece Polk Audio Surround Sound System. I wont be watching many movies at the theater any longer. I may need a few of you to come sit in front of me and talk though while I watch some movies on this one. Could have included a better remote. Can hardly find this one in the dark. Good television for everyone.

Strength:

Good Picture, PIP, Component Video Input

Weakness:

PIP does'nt work with Auxillary input, which sucks since I cannot swap between a broadcast channel and digital cable channel

Sony is way ahead in Flat screen TV and the picture is
good. I wish PIP works with the Auxillary input...Except
for that great value for the money...

Strength:

Picture Quality, component inputs, black level accuracy, I could go on....

Weakness:

Try to lift it yourself... it's weakness will be revealed, No auto 16:9 mode, Factory presets(like always)suck.

My girlfriend and I saw this monster in Tweeter, Philadelphia, PA. Since the cost was above what we intended to spend, I am not even going to bother comparing it to more expensive sets in its class(which there is only one or two more above it in the line), or the more expensive XBR selections. This set is probably selling for hundreds less right now. after using my THX setup disk (not included) this television blew me away. Saturation was excellent, level of detail and black level were superb. I even sprung for some Monster silver component video cables to hook up my DVD player to (SonyDVP7000) I don't care what you may have heard, component video is the way to go, especially with this set, S-video cable is a bare minimum. the component video cables give you an incredible if not marginal increase in color and shadow detail compared to S video. Jeez, you just spent 1600.00 on a set, get the damn component video cables already. DVDs looked excellent in 16:9 mode, which retains all of the resolution of the format, with a letterbox size picture. I would have liked to see an auto 16:9 feature on this set. It is mildly annoying to set it myself when i'm beginning to get into a film. Actually I don't have any major complaints with this TV. picture wise It is comparable with more expensive non-digital or non-HDTV sets out there. I am going to stick with my WEGA for a while until HDTV becomes more affordable. As incredible as a HDTV picture can be, this television is a very satisfying solution for right now. BUY IT!
