SONY KV-20FV300 20" FD Trinitron(R) Wega(TM) TV
Terrific TV
I bought this TV about a year ago from Circuit City and have absolutely no complaints. From day one, the picture quality has been stunning and the sound exceptional. When playing DVDs, the sound is so realistic, it sometimes startles me and especially my cats. I used to have a Sony 13&quot; TV. It was good, but old, and my cats never paid attention to the picture. With this 20&quot; flat-screen Sony, my cats are much more interested with what's happening on-screen and are more likely to &quot;attack&quot; the screen. I mention my cats, not because I'm a nutty cat person, but to illustrate how realistic the picture is -- it even fools them. Frankly, I was blown away by the sharpness, clarity and vivid colors of this flat-screen. Set-up was a breeze. I had no problems with default settings, as some people have mentioned. The TV is used primarily in the evenings, almost never during the day, except to watch afternoon baseball games. So, I'd estimate it's used maybe 30 hours per week at most. That's probably less than a family with kids, but even still, after a year of moderate use, it still works like new. Aside from the function, I also think this set has a lot of aesthetic appeal -- at least for me. I find it very attractive. It's also the perfect size. I don't think I'd want anything larger, especially in my smallish townhouse. I have only one minor complaint, and I don't think it's the fault of Sony or the TV:  When you first turn the set on, you have to wait about 5 seconds before you can change the channel. For some reason, this annoys me, but as I said, I don't see this as a flaw with the TV. All in all, I've been very happy with the set and have recommended it to friends and family.
