Many inputs and ways to select them very simple and easy to use.8. So here is the bottom line on this Sony.1. The options truly due seem limitless, picture, screen, sound, and more with stunning capabilities to adjust even the very finest of viewing detail.3. The built in TV Guide feature is amazing with listings for almost every channel, it will tell you whats on and whats next with many search features (need not apply for those of you with cable boxs)7. The TV will give off a slight hummmm while turned on this can be very irritating in a quite room.4. The TV menu (if you like the PS3 styling) is wonderful and currently supasses most of what is on the market.4.
The TV will create a "new plastic odor" when turned on for the first couple weeks however this is not an issue for most people since the smell is not too strong and is that of just plastic.2. Beautiful appeal, the product simply leaps out of the box it will actually look better then described.2. The TV will dim/adjust the screen brightness based on the lighting in your room.Issues noticed:1. When other reviewers speak of 3D like picture quality yes this is very true, the color reproduction of this TV is outstanding and with the Bravia Engine 2 you will enjoy very life like images.5. The TVs internal software is updatable with a USB stick there is one update available at the time of this review, very neat feature.6. The software runs a tad slow and will lag minorly but is well worth it for its capabilites, also the TV takes a few moments to load.3.
I received a complimentary small scratch on the stand that came with mine, just a thought for the QC consciousFor those who are wondering the digtal compression artifacts and picture judder (MPEG noise) etc is very tolerable on this TV with many options to smooth out such things, also channel changing SD to SD is fairly quick.In summation this TV is a good buy, lots of inputs and nice styling with solid performance to back it up.As always, happy shopping =)
After looking and comparing HDTV's for several months I finally decided to opt out for top quality as opposed to size. I look forward to many hours of pleasure. I have always been very happy with Sony products and this is no exception. I am well pleased and glad that I chose the KDL-32XBR6. I was also pleased with the delivery, which was free. Pilot was the delivery service and delivered two days early.D.Ray
This, on top of the 1080p graphics from an Xbox or PS3 make this TV worth it. The TV does require a little bit of settings-fiddling to get the screen to fit properly, but it only took a few minutes of digging through the immense properties menu.
My size requirements and budget limited me to a TV in the 32-37" range, and the opened box deal was too good to pass up. I had been shopping the market for a good TV for months before I settled on this Bravia.
I tried a number of set-ups to achieve this and found that buying a DVI to HDMI cable ($20 here on amazon) is the best solution, and the quality is, near as makes no difference, the same or better than a standard monitor. Ideally, I would have rather bought a plasma for the richer colors, but because of my plans to use this as a replacement computer monitor, and because I leave my computer on a lot, I went with an LCD for its smaller size and to avoid the dreaded "burn in".
I have my 360 and PS3 hooked up to it, and both look absolutely stunning, but the awesomeness of having this as my computer monitor trumps them both. Also, you have to make sure your video drivers are fully up-to-date, and there may even be additional HDTV drivers to download, depending on the make of your video card.To anyone looking for an HDTV-computer monitor solution, I highly recommend this TV and the DVI to HDMI cable.
I can't wait to get my HDTV cable box from Comcast and complete the whole package.
I've owned nothing but Sony TV's since the 70's.Always excellent and never any problems.This 32 XBR is no exception. Picture quality is the best of any 32" I tested, the design of the set is superb.Even non high def channels look great.Higly recommended.
I ordered this TV after many weeks of research on the net. The picture quality for sure is much better than that of 720p TV. I have only had it now for few weeks and nothing compares to it- honestly speaking.The picture and sound are crisp clear - a true 1080 pixel quality. With an upscaling DVD player you are sure to watch a HD quality picture just with a normal DVD. Though expensive(almost twice the price of a 720p sony M or L series, anybody who wouldn't compromise quality should go for the XBR series instead of M or L series if he/she can afford it.However am hoping it will be able to stand a test of time (ie durable). I recommend it.
