BRAVIA V-Series televisions are where Full HD 1080 starts. Two sizes, 46" and 40" diagonally, define what Full HD 1080 (1920 x 1080) televisions are all about. Performance functions like Live Color Creation (featuring the WCG-CCFL backlight) and the 10-bit panel display assure picture quality and performance. The BRAVIA Engine¿ EX full digital video processing system includes DRC-MF v1.0 technology, which upconverts 480i video signals to a 1080p equivalent. DMeX ¿ ready allows connection to the new DMeX (Digital Module Expander) called the BRAVIA Internet Video Link module. And BRAVIA V-Series TVs are big on ease of operation. BRAVIA¿ Theatre Sync offers one-button command for time consuming control functions and signal path routing. And we didn't forget about connectivity. How about two 1080/24p and 1080/60p input capable HDMI connections, two HD Component YPbPr inputs, and a PC input, just to name a few. Add a sparkling new black picture frame design, quiet operation, and you have BRAVIA V-Series HD LCD TVs.

Do Not Buy This Sony TV!!

I have owned the KDL-46V3000 for about 2 years and the screen began to have problems. At first, it would split into horizontal quadrants which
would go away as the set was left on. It eventually got to the point where the screen would not come on, sound only. Took it to a service center and it was diagnosed with a faulty LCD, a $1400 repair.
I called Sony and did not complain,
I only wanted to make them aware of the problem. They filed a complaint.
I asked them to put in the notes that I wanted someone to contact me about the problem.
Now that I've researched the KDL-46V3000 online, I can see that more than a few of the 2007
models have bad LCD screens. Will never buy another Sony again.

| This TV was an excellent buy for the size and price. Picture quality is quite good, although not quite as good as sony's newer panels, and there is some motion blur in moving scenes. Since I am a total freak over sound and image, I would expect that most people would not notice IE my mom and friends who aren't so technically inclined. Others who have seen it loved it and thought it was a great TV and jealousy ensued. I personally love the design of this panel much more than the newer models. it looks much like a picture frame. No picture in picture and only 2 HDMI inputs is a bit lacking, but if you have a AV receiver, not a problem. I will not say you must buy this, but if your looking for a large tv with minimal glare and good picture on a budget, this is a good choice. |
Loved it until....

| I really hate to give this only 3 stars because I absolutely love it. It's my second bedroom lcd and it has been perfect for 8 months. Recently, it developed one vertical line to the left. It does go away after an hour but it's definitely the tv. Since the warranty runs out in May; I'll be taking the set back to a Sony repair shop next week. I hate to do that since the TV is really perfect after an hour but fear the line will get worse or not go away. I have another Sony 52 inch kdl xbr4 from Amazon almost a year ago and it is beyond perfection. Love that beautiful set with the glass framing around it. It is huge and heavy but the images are just awsome. I have hdtv dvrs on both sets from comcast and although Comcast isn't perfect; the dvrs and really breath-taking when played back. Keep your fingers crossed for me as I hope they'll be able to fix this set. If not; I'll be purchasing another 46 inch or larger set for the bedroom after I settle with Sony. I'm assuming it will be another Sony lcd. I'm a loyal customer. |
Great TV

| I was going to buy a 52" Sony, but after playing with this set, I'm glad I settled into a 46". The picture is plenty big enough in my living room. And with my Sony home theater system set up, everything works very well. |
