I recommend Sony Bravia V-Series KDL-42V4100 42-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV to anyone anyday.
5 Stars First rate product
I was very hesitant at first when I saw te low price on Amazon, but I thought I could not go too wrong with a Sony. I’m glad I made the purchase. The TV arrived very well packaged and the setup was a breeze even for a non-techie like me.
The colours are amazing and the overall picture quality superb. I can’t express adequately how happy I am with my purchase, but I can tell you all my Television sets in the future will come from Sony and Amazon.
4 Stars Good Product. Great Service.
Well I expected the TV to be wonderful, and it is. But the big surprise was the care with which Amazon’s took over after the sale. Two guys with a truck arrived at our door three days ahead of schedule, carried it in, unpacked it, made sure it was free of any dents or scratches, programmed it with our signal and were gone in under half an hour.
If that was “White Glove Delivery,” I would highly recommend it.
5 Stars A Superb Picture At a Low Price
Even before calibrating the Custom setting, the picture on this SONY is superior or as good as all sets near its price by 20%, making the savings on a cheaper bargain brand moot. It’s only competitor for picture, especially the depth of the blacks and detail in the dark areas (which can be calibrated) is the Panasonic 42″ Plasma. In our bright room, it is superior. Off angle viewing is not as good but doesn’t apply to our environment. The black correction is high, medium and low so experimenting with it during different times of the day will relinquish the best setting. The room light contrast and brightness correction works fairly well, but I tend to change from normal or custom and vice versa if the correction isn’t that accurate. The “Home” set-up configuration is for savvy computer heads, not too user friendly. Would I spend the $300.00 — $ 500.00 for professional calibration? No — the Blu-Ray HD Basics disk is good enough and using the Custom picture configuration with some time spent on achieving the picture you want is really good enough. I mainly left the Vivid, Normal and Cinema settings the same but changed the Cinema to a Neutral color temperature — the Warm 2 is way too amber. I normally like the cool setting as it sharpens up the hard edges of images, especially in the warm tones.
I used the new Blu-Ray “Swan Lake” and “2201: A Space Odyssey” to check out the 120hz motion coordination for movies and it works great.
5 Stars WONDERFUL!
