Sony KV-32FS320 32-Inch FD Trinitron WEGA Flat-Screen TV
Great SDTV for those still reluctant to purchase an HDTV
We wanted to replace our 27\\" SDTV with something a bit bigger so we initially investigated HDTVs. After getting some sticker shock we decided to try to find a good SDTV. The 32\\" WEGA fit the bill perfectly. <br />The set is quite heavy but the picture is great and the set has a pretty good number and combination of video inputs. By far the coolest feature is the 16:9 enhanced mode. If you have a DVD player that you can set to force widescreen playback mode you will get a vertically stretched picture. You can then set the WEGA to squash the resulting picture into the middle part of the screen. The stretched out image now returns to normal and the result is a noticeable improvement in the quality of widescreen DVD movies.  In this mode almost all 480 vertical scan lines are being used to display the movie when you would normally waste about 100 scanlines displaying black bars. <br /> <br />With great standard def picture quality and enhanced DVD viewing this set is a great option for those of us still living in a pre-HDTV world.
