 FANTASTIC COMPUTER MONITER August 15, 2008
Using this a a moniter for my Dell XPS computer. Truly Awesome, use PC setting #2 for an absolutily clear picture
all around grade A August 15, 2008
The white glove delivery was flawless, with the TV placed in the spot I desired, started up and tested, trash removed and "thank you". The picture is excellent and all the features work very well. This was a delightful purchasing experience in all ways. "atta boy" to Amazon and Sony.
The choice was easy for me... August 9, 2008

WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR: Cheap-ish 32" widescreen with a flat-black cabinet for my bedroom. I already have a 32" Viewsonic in the other room. Although that was about $150 less, it shows. I wanted something one notch up. Plus, my experience with reliability and service was a nightmare with the Viewsonic.
WHAT I GOT: Let me start by saying I can't understand for the life of me why 90% of TVs today have glossy black cabinets. Isn't the last thing you want near or on your TV something shiny or reflective? Stupid fashion statement. Maybe it's just me, but I'm more busy looking at what's inside of the rectangle- not outside of it. So this pretty much narrowed it down to this TV alone. Amazon had a killer deal on the Samsung LN32A450 when I bought the Sony, and wherever you look it says the Samsung has a better picture. And when I saw the two at a store I would have to agree- just by a bit. But that shiny glossy cabinet was the deal breaker for me. Again- I just don't get it. The Sony is all I want it to be- and a little bit more. Very good picture, a cabinet that doesn't shout for attention, decent menus, logical input menu, etc. The channel switching is a tad slower than past Sony's I've owned, but still not nearly as slow as various Philips, Magnavoxs, Viewsonics, etc. that I've used. The unexpected bonus was after connecting it to my standard (not digital) Comcast cable, I noticed that I can pick up local HD channels. This is something I was not able to do with my Viewsonic. Perfect for the Olympics!!! Not ready for a bigger cable bill, my intention for this TV was just to watch DVDs in WS and the rest in 4:3. This was a nice surprise!
The bottom line is I doubt you will find a better TV all-around for this kind of money. Unless you're a hard core videophile who spends a lot of time with calibration discs and watching reference material looking for shadows and artifacts, you will not be disappointed with this set. And if you are, go ahead and spend 50% more you lucky guy/gal! And if you're considering lesser brand names to save $100 or so, I would say save up a bit and move one step up. You'll probably own the TV for another 6-8 years so think how little that is per year.

I love the look of the set it has a good picture and sound quality.
It is a good price for the money. However I have noticed that it will give off a large static noises and popping sounds when over heated. This scares me.
 Very disappointed! August 1, 2008

We have a Sharp 32" that we just love. I needed to replace a very old TV so I decided to buy the Sony because of the Sony name. I was sure it would be as good as the Sharp but boy have I been disappointed. 1. The picture is very grainy/ghostly and we can't get it to be better no matter how much we tweak it. 2. The TV/Satellite picture with the correct aspec ratio has only about a 19" view. When in full screen view, the aspec ratio has distorted picture. There are fewer view options to choose from than on the Sharp.
I called Tech support and was told everything would be better next year when the stations start broadcasting 100% in HD. I watch TV more than I do DVD movies and if I had wanted a 19" television I would have bought one.
