3 out of 5 stars Mediocre performance from a quality name   August 18, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The M-Series 26" Sony Bravia has a nice looking HD picture but standard definition (SD) pictures are horrible and sound quality is poor. Once all the picture parameters are set for HD, these programs have great detail and resolution. Unfortunately, SD pictures are very soft, color rendition is poor and contrast is poor. Sound quality is tinny and sorely lacking in bass information.

I bought this set beacuse of years of enjoyment with my 25" XBR from the late 1980's that still produces a great looking picture and has never seen the inside of a repair shop. But this M-series Bravia is a big disappointment given that some channels I enjoy are not currently offered in HD. That will change in time, but I thought any Sony product, even an entry level model, would be of better quality than this unit.



5 out of 5 stars Great TV   August 15, 2008

This is a great TV. Works great. Easy to set up. Just what I needed.


5 out of 5 stars REALLY LIKE THIS TV   August 15, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

While a 26" screen may not sound impressive, it certainly seems a lot bigger in the living room. What's more, it leaves in the dust any analog TV of a similar screen size.

I like its sharp picture, vibrant colors, the design, and various ways it can display the picture and sound. It has a lot of other features (PIP is one) that I haven't quite gotten around to using yet.

The only thing I could wish for is for it to respond quicker when I turn it on and change channels.

All in all, though, I'm very happy with this TV.



3 out of 5 stars Good, Low End TV   August 7, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

From my experiance, Sony is the only brand TV to buy. I am satified with the quality of the picture and the viewing angle. My only gripe is that it doesn't accept discrete codes to change inputs, which means I ending up not using the tuner on the TV and had to run everyhing through one S-Video cable from my Entertainment System. My good old VCR is the tuner for this TV. There are way too many inputs for the remote to correctly select the right one in a timely manner. If there is an "S" version out by the time you read this review, I would recommed going up a notch!


1 out of 5 stars Buggy HDMI with Comcast HD DVR   July 18, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I like the picture but I don't think the bugs are worked out of this one yet. I can't use HDMI to connect to my Comcast Motorola HD DVR box without a huge popping sound when changing channels. Component works fine, but what's the point of having HDMI if it's glitchy? Also, the picture is noticeably better with HDMI.

Comcast swapped boxes and I still had the problem. I sent it to a Sony repair center and they couldn't figure out what was wrong as the HDMI checked out o.k. at the shop. The repair tech returned the TV to me and brough along a a 19" Samsung to hook up to the Mot box via HDMI as a test. The Samsung changed channels quicker and without any popping sounds. Sony is stumped and I'm tired with dealing with it.
