Sony High End,
I purchased this TV for the benefits of local dimming LED and picture quality. In that regard it does not disappoint and produces a picture that I believe exceeds the quality of any Plasma or LED I have seen. The blacks are incredible and to see them is to appreciate them as compared to other LED TV’s I have seen. You should buy this TV for the picture, because the speakers and remote are disappointing. I own a high end TV from Samsung also and I find their remote much better and the built in speakers were better also. Lets face it though, if you buy a TV like this one you are probably not going to use its speakers or remote anyway. Plans to hook it up to a home theater system seem to be the norm and perhaps the way it should be because to invest in a TV like this is to invest in something you want to use alot and pairing it with high end home theater components would only be natural. So if you are looking for LED sharpness with the best blacks on the market for your home theater system this Sony should be at the top of your list.

xbr 46 inch 929,
delivery was prompt. the setup of the tv was very easy and efficient. it was easy to edit names for the inputs (e.g., tivo instead of the provided names). the sony sound is so, so. you really need to connect to a AV receiver. the speakers are rear facing. the sony web interface is bad. the widgets,etc are reasonable (wrt user interface). the internet setup was straightforward (ethernet with a fixed ip address). setting up all the controls and options reminding me of setting up a computer for the first time. this tv set is really a computer with a hd screen.
now to the picture. it is great and vivid. the tv set replaced a sharp 2 year old system. much better colors and clarity. the colors seem to jump off the screen. at night, until i turned off (disabled) the ambient light detector, the picture got darker. once i fixed this, the picture at night was as good as the day. i don’t know why these tv sets have this feature.
