CHEAP Sony BRAVIA XBR KDL-32XBR9 32-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV

This is the first flat screen HDTV that I have ever purchased. I, like many others looking for HDTVs, did a lot of research before finding “the one”. I’m extremely satisfied with this as my first purchase. I’ve owned it for a little over 2 months now and have gotten a lot of use out of it already.br /br /Right out of the box the TV not only looked great but had a sturdy feel to it. This is a well designed TV and doesn’t feel flimsy or cheaply made. Other reviewers are complaining about some of the inputs being on the side of the TV – it’s not a problem. There is enough of a gap between the inputs and the edge of the TV where any cables plugged into the side inputs can be neatly tucked around and behind.br /br /The picture quality is amazing. Playing PS3 and XBOX 360 via HDMI looks phenomenal. Bluray movie and picture quality is amazing as well. I also have this thing doubling as a computer monitor via HDMI. There is a small ghosting effect on dark areas but I’m not surprised by that; this wasn’t purchased with the intent of a gaming monitor for my computer but it’s amazing how fun games are on a screen this big. Watching streaming HD content off the internet looks great too. The fact that this is 1080p and also 120hz makes just about anything look spectacular on here. There really is nothing bad to say about the picture quality on this set. All Sony Bravia television sets that I’ve viewed I have been very impressed with the picture quality.br /br /The sound is something that I was a little disappointed on. The built in sound on the TV isn’t bad by any means, however, it’s not great either. You can’t turn the volume up too loud otherwise the sound will really begin to distort. Low and mid volumes are the best way to listen with just the built in speakers. I eventually plugged into an external sound system and it sounds much better that way. I would recommend future (and current) owners to go this route to get the best sound quality.br /br /Other various built in features I think are a nice compliment to the set. The menu functions are easy to use and navigate through. There are a lot of options to change around and edit, which is a nice bonus I think. The remote isn’t bad either. I didn’t order a firmware update from Sony but instead downloaded the latest firmware from their website and installed it myself. Wasn’t difficult at all – the directions online to do this are easy enough to follow.br /br /Overall I’m incredibly satisfied with my purchase. I would definitely purchase another one of these if given the opportunity, and would definitely recommend this set. I was on the fence for several weeks deciding on which HDTV to get. If you’re looking for something you will really get your money’s worth from – get this TV and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
