Sony KDL-V40XBR1 BRAVIA 40" XBR(R) LCD Television
Fantastic! Within a few days you won't be able any more to enjoy watching a smaller TV
I made a rather big step going from a 21'' Sony TV set to the 40'' Bravia V type but I must say that the difference with anything else I have seen is simply huge and the quality of picture and sound are astonishing. I had heard before many times about the advantages of LCD screens comparing to the Plasma (no burned pixels, no life limit etc.), but I must say that the LCD technology has finally matured to a fine level. This model offers a 178 degree view and I have mounted it on a wall, 90 cm from the floor, where despite its weight of 40 kg it looks marvellously elegant. The set is just 12 cm thick (I think the smallest thickness I have seen in TV sets of this size) and there is no complexity at all for anyone who has the slightest exeperinece with older Sony devices.
