5 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for   July 20, 2007

I needed a TV for my daughters bedroom makeover. I very nearly bought a cheaper 32", strange make, with fair reviews from Ebuyer.

But I didn't.

I virtually always go for a premium brand, and am a great believer in the phrase Price is forgotten long after quality is remembered.

In the end I found this £100 off, and I was able to use my company discount. Bottom line I Paid £380. So a good price.

I was not expecting the digital free view, so we were delighted to get this as a bonus. Loads of extra channels, and some really good ones, Film4/ Sky news/ music channels plus a raft of others.

Picture quality - from my aerial was crystal clear, its HD ready, but I haven't used this mode yet.

Wall mounting - easy to do. It didn't come with a kit, I bought one online from www.av4home.co.uk (£33 including next day delivery).

I had to cut off the moulded plug, and replace with another one, so I could hide the wires away. It comes with a lead, which you cannot detach from the TV, and it is about 1.5m long.

Looks great on the wall, and picture quality is fabulous.

Nice one.

Adam

This is the first LCD tv I've ever bought, I'd been putting it off each year believing that they still had some way to go before being as good as the best CRTs (old Sony Triniton 100Hz tvs for example).

I have to say I was nicely surprised once I had set it up, as long as you've got a healthy reception the digital broadcast images are very good. I find the colours a bit intense on some channels, though I suspect this is due to the broadcast signal rather than the TV.

Plenty of inputs though for connecting a PC you are limited to analogue VGA, that said with a good graphics card the picture is still very good (way better than what'd you'd get on a CRT tv and more than adequate for web browsing, watching movies etc).

Sound is also better than expected, the audio line out is brilliant for connecting to a hifi-amp, though is fixed in level so you'll need a hifi remote to adjust the volume from the sofa.

The rec-timer funtion is one of my fav features, it can be programmed to send any digital broadcast down the smartlink Scart port to your older VCR/DVD recorder while the TV is off (effectively giving you a Sky+ style recorder). Of course you still have to set the timer on your video :-) This also removes the need to pass the broadcast signal through the VCR before connecting to the TV which can often cause interference.

All in all, good value, perhaps not quite as good as the best CRTs but for £425 you really can't complain.

great TV, 2 scarts and looks gorgeous in my living room cabinet!

only gripe would be the factory settings for the display but can quickly be corrected by fiddling with the display settings accessed easily by sony's intuitive menu system.

Sony Bravia LCD TV for this price - grab one now!

5 out of 5 stars TV Great - Delivery Poor   March 1, 2007

An excellent TV at a great price, however very unhappy with delivery. Amazon promise
1. e-mail on depatch, didn't get this!
2. Courier will phone to arrange 4 hour slot, did not phone!
3. Courier will unwrap and check for damage,Didn't happen!
Unknown to me TV was delivered to a neighbour, no card through my door, so neighbour could have kept it!
I would not order an expensive item again from Amazon. Shame really as they were by far the cheapest and the product is excellent.
