Sony Grand WEGA KF-50WE610 50-Inch HDTV-Ready LCD Rear Projection TV
Superb picture, but a little pricey.
This review is for the Sony KF50WE610:<br />Pros: 1. Almost the best picture...comparing to current plasma's and other DLp/LCD project TV's.<br />2. Definitely better than any rear projection TV and slim enough to save you that extra space.<br />3. Easy to move and setup.<br />4. No burnout issues.<br />5. HD Picture is the best, when compared to other TV's.<br />Cons: 1. Uses a replaceable projection lamp which may need to be replaced more frequently than you would think. I have had this TV for 7 months, but the bulb is still going strong.<br />2. I have heard about issues with TV making sounds when starting immediately after switching off. I have noticed that too, but dont think it really matters.<br />3. Black portions of the picture are not entirely black as you would think, but this is also noticeable only if you watch extremely carefully in night scenes. I have had some success by tweaking the &quot;Picture&quot;, &quot;Brightness&quot;, &quot;Color&quot; and &quot;Sharpness&quot; controls.<br />Overall, a very good TV, but I would have given it 5 stars if it was a little less priced and did not have the replacement lamp issue.
