LCD Rear Projection Television
For Big Screen Lovers Who Dont Want To Spend Too Much,
I just received this television and finally have it working. Although my experience so far has been with the local HD channels using an over the air HD antenna, it has still proven its worth the money.
I come home every night after work wanting to watch TV on a “nice” TV. Sure there might be minor tweaks that you can do to enhance the picture but come on, It’s not that noticable and definately not worth $500 to get a guy to come tune it for you. Out of the box this TV does very well. The red is a little sharp but its nothing you cant easily take care of going through the settings. The overall picture quality is absolutely beautiful when watching HD TV. I got to see our Minnesota Vikings get the crap beaten out of them by the Bengals with outstanding quality.
With the large screen size that it has, watching TV series programs like “Lost” etc. really make a difference.
I also purchased the GW12 TV Stand and it looks amazing in the house. Be aware how ever to make sure you have enough room for the TV in your living room. I had to move some of my couches back to the dining room to get a more comfortable viewing distance, but since I know Ill be moving out soon I knew it wouldnt be too bad for too long. But make sure you have at least 12 feet of distance to the TV screen. Remember that the TV is about 3 feet deep and that you will want to calculate that into your measurements as well. The Sony TV stand is shaped perfectly for the TV so there’s no excessive space taken up.
To use the full power of the TV I purchased the HD DVR from Direct TV to be able to record everything I miss and still be able to watch it in HD. HD programs are much more clear, vivid and sharper than what they looked like on your standard TV.
One con is the lack of picture in picture. You’d think it would be nice with a TV this big but I suppose Sony had a reason for dropping it.
The Speakers are pretty nice for the size of the TV but with a screen that big you should consider purchasing a home theater system or receiver set with seperate speakers.
The remote control is kind of corny looking but hey its not the main point here.
TV is also very light weight for its size and ways at about 150lbs.
Overall I definately love this TV and think it was well worth the price. I looked into buying a DLP but it just didnt catch my eye as much as this rear projection LCD. Sony has definately improved the darkness of the black on the LCD TV’s knowing that there were problems in the past.

I’ve always loved Sony TVs. Had a 48″ model for about 15 years and just traded up to this 60″ hi-def model. OMG! It’s spectacular … from the size (better than being in a movie theater) to the exceptional picture quality to the brilliance of clarity and color to the overall experience. Also, got an unbelievable price from BrandsMart … $1,298! Whatever you pay for this, it’s worth it if you’re a TV junkie … especially for sports. Even golf is exciting to watch.
