What's the best Sony BRAVIA TV out? and what series is it?

Question

IT HAS TO BE A LCD FLAT PANEL

Answer 1

Let me 1st say to the person w/a problem that lemons exist and no, not all problems are convered by manufacturers warranty, in fact, a lot of issues occur with many tvs outside of one year. This is why store offer protection plans! no, not the extended warranty( the manufacturer doesn't cover a considerable amount of issue)

Now, back to sony. The highest end sony tv's in america(all american sonys say bravia) is the XBR series.

Here is some gen differences ( usuing this years series structure)

S-series ( this is sony base-line 1080p that allows wal-mart to say "we carry sony")

V-series( sony real starting point)

offers Advanced contrast enhancer(ACE)

better sound(altough i would never wish the suffering of tv sound on anyone)

picture&picture( yes is said PAP not PIP)

and will support at pc through hdmi as well as RGB(for those with better graphics cards.

W-series(where is starts to get good)

this tv has all features listed above plus..

better contrast

Bravia Engine tech

and most importantly 120hz (twice the speed in motion)

Z-series(special in 40 and 46 only)

all of the above plus

Bravia Series II engine( like having a v-8 instead of a v-6)

this frame( i mean thin----)

deep color( a feature that enhances colors)

photo tv

live color creation

x.v. color( a feature that can produce 1.8 times the normal shades of color)

XBR-series(the reason sony is known as the best)

all of above

Bravia Pro series Processing( like having a Jet-engine istead of v-8, lol)

Unfortunately the XBR full line of features has yet to be annouced but it is speculated they will release one with LED back lighting( brighter pic, better black level, longer life, cooler operation)

stay tuned....

I hope this helped get you started!

Answer 2

DONT DONT DONT

I got one and exactly 6 moths later (warranty time) it got all messed up....... ahhhhhh

a co-workers hubby got one too and same thing

i.e. volume bar never dissapearing on bottom of screen

i.e. volume just adjusting itself even when you are not touching the remote

i.e. taking FOREVER before the T.V. actually turns on and shows a screen

Answer 3

The best is XBR4 or XBR5 (no difference in performance).  The newer, cheaper models are not as good.  Sony has an excellent repair record.  One-year warranty (can buy longer if you want).
