SONY BRAVIA

BRAVIA is fast becoming synonymous with a quality of colour and a clarity of detail that no comparable LCD TV can match - a picture so good it enhances the viewing experience, no matter what you like to watch. The new 2006 S-Series and V-Series BRAVIA raise the bar even further, by combining the BRAVIA ENGINE and a unique next generation S-PVA panel.

    Even better Colour with Live Colour
    Creation on the V-Series BRAVIA
    BRAVIA is known for delivering colour like no other. And now even more so, with our unique new Live Colour Creation technology, within every V-Series BRAVIA. Live Colour Creation is a new Sony technology unique to BRAVIA, which delivers 30% wider colour than conventional LCD technology. This means BRAVIA can realise far deeper and more accurate tones, for absolutely stunning colour reproduction, exactly as nature intended.

    The BRAVIA ENGINE - generating
    incredible colour and clarity
    As you'd expect, remaining at the heart of every S-Series and V-Series BRAVIA LCD TV is the renowned BRAVIA ENGINE, our unique fully digital processor. Any signal you put into a BRAVIA, regardless of the source, goes through a pure digital perfecting process:

    Super Fast Response Time
    8 millisecond response time means fast-moving images such as sports or
    action sequences remain pin sharp, without any motion blur.

    Incredible High Contrast
    1300:1 super-enhanced contrast, delivers incredible depth,
    richness and picture detail, with blacks that are truly black.

    Ultra Wide Viewing Angle
    178° viewing angle means you can experience BRAVIA from almost any angle and there is no reduction in the colour and brightness of the image. This is particularly important when viewing larger television screens. Try it yourself in-store.

     

     

    The Complete BRAVIA LCD TV Experience
    With our unique new technologies, nothing delivers a combination of visual and audio in-home experience quite as stylishly as a BRAVIA.

    Colour like no other
    The BRAVIA ENGINE processor and the unique high spec S-PVA panel, in the new 2006 S-Series and V-Series BRAVIA LCD TVs deliver rich, deep colour, like no other. The V-Series also combines Live Colour Creation to produce the most natural colour yet.

    Sound like no other
    Trusurround XT technology delivers a virtual surround-sound experience from the front, with no additional speakers required. While the built-in digital amplification and BBE digital enhancement produces a pure `noise-free' clarity to any conceivable sound, be it a gently inhaled breath or a deep-space explosion.

    Style like no other
    Designed to look as good as the pictures they produce, the new S-Series and V-Series BRAVIA LCD TV are impressive
    even before you switch them on.

    Ultra slim, they feature VESA compliant mounting so they can be easily and safely hung on a wall, like a painting. Alternatively they remain just as stylish on their custom designed swivel stands. The space saving dynamic of LCD TV means you can replace a 32inch traditional box set with a 40inch BRAVIA LCD TV without it taking up any extra room.

    Sony do it again5
    Had the set for 3 days. I have being looking at buying an LCD for the last couple of months and have looked at all the usual contenders. I saw the Sony next to a Samsung both displaying the same pictures and preferd the Sony picture. I also think the Sony is a better looking set. Once it was delivered it took a while to get the picture right, however it was worth the effort, it is amazing! The detail is fantastic and a 360 looks stunning. You do need decent leads though, bought some monster leads and the difference is very noticeable.

    Outstanding5
    Out of the Box the picture looks pretty good but once you've played with the settings it's simply stunning. Fantastic blacks, great contrast, vibrant colours and a picture to die for. I've got it hooked up to my SD cable box using IXOS scart and the picture is rock solid. The 360 looks great through component but even crisper through VGA; Gears of War looks amazing. The screen supports 1:1 pixel mapping with the 360 set to 1366x768 via VGA which means i still have the component and HDMI free for other HD sources. The fact that it has one HDMI shouldn't put you off, this is a wonderful set and if you need to connect more HDMI sources you can always use a switcher box.

    I've also tried streaming some HD .ts files through the 360 and again it looks fantastic. No blurring in fast moving scenes and no deterioration of picture quality at (not that i could notice at least). Upscaled DVDs look fantastic as well. Very pleased with the purchase and would thourghly recommend it.

    Just perfect! (IMHO)5
    I was dithering between Panasonic,samsung,and sony.But after reading up on some expert reviews on various tech sites, plus the "What Hi-Fi" magazine,I found this model came out tops by far(32" catagory)It is much more expensive,but as our last Tv has lasted 20 years,i took a deep breath and emptied my wallet!..... and wow, I'm not disappointed! Brilliant in all aspects.Picture quality takes your breath away. You have to delve into settings to adjust to personal taste(the defaults are set to use in brightly-lit showrooms)but Sony have a wonderful knack of making it simple,both with on-screen display,and a clear,uncluttered remote.Sound is good too,especially the pseudo-surround sound setting if,like me,you havnt got all the latest cinema-sound equipment. It's also got 'dynamic' setting which increases bass. Connecting with a "smartlink"-compatable dvdr,(Ive got a panasonic with 'Q-link')recording is a doddle, using the EPG on the tv.(you dont need the dvd's remote at all) In the looks department ~~ in my opinion it looks classy. There's been a lot of 'hype' about the 'beautiful shiney looks' of the latest samsungs, but i find them a bit "in your face". This set just sits there and shouts 'quality'.
    If I HAVE to have a gripe.... it's certainly not against the product itself. But for a relatively pricey Tv,I think Sony have been a bit 'mingy' in failing to supply even a basic scart lead.Maybe they presume that customers will want to choose a top-quality connection for high-spec products like these,to get the best out of them.I got a QED HDMI cable plus a RGB scart(needed for the 'smartlink'to my dvdr)
    This is a beautiful Tv. Go on... take the plunge... you wont regret it!
