Date: 2007-09-12 BEST TV EVER! I have owned this TV for 6 years and have not had a single problem. It has every feature you could imagine. I had bought a surround system with it but returned it because the built in 80 watt system sounded so good I didn't feel I needed it. 1080i HD picture quality can not be beaten! Date: 2007-08-15 Beautiful Picture, but Heavy, and Serious Problem after 4 years I purchased this TV in June of 2002. About August of 2006, it started to have intermittent problems of displaying a distorted output of the selected input along with parts of the output of the second tuner. Would come and go, normally after the TV had been on for a little while. Makes it impossible to watch TV when this is happening. I've been told by service company to expect $500 repair bill. When working, the picture is beautiful. This set is very heavy, about 235 pounds, which presents challenges in getting it serviced. No one wants to move it. Date: 2006-02-08 Best set I have ever owned. I bought this set in 2000 and have never had a problem. I did buy the 5 year warranty - but never used it. The picture quality compared to my $5,000 plasma is much better - no distortion on the 4:3. If you have any concerns, buy the extended warranty. It's cheap protection. Also, go to other sites and read the reviews there. You will find that they are overwhelmingly positive. Date: 2006-01-11 Sony XBR TV dies twice Picture perfect when it worked I got the Sony KV36XBR450 in March 2002 It only had the 2 year Sony warrenty. Did not think I would need an exteded warrenty having bought several Sony TVs over the years.It lasted only 2 years 11 months.(2-2005) It would try to turn on then shut down and only the red light in front would bink 4 times and repeat. I had it serviced $419, and it worked fine until 12-23-05 9 monthts after the repair,when it did the same thing. No sound no picture. Now I have to decied to throw more money at it or throw out this two hundred an thirty-eight pound paperwight. Date: 2005-08-04 Good picture, but board went out after only 3 years I've enjoyed the picture quality of television but noticed perhaps a year after I bought it that it turned off every once in a while. It didn't happen that often so I basically overlooked it for a while. Then after a couple of years it got to the point where it turned off more frequently until I had to replace the board which cost me a little over $300. I've had other televisions for much longer without any maintenance at all. Aside from that I've definitely enjoyed the picture, but I would expect any television that costs so much to be more reliable. * Price is subject to change. |
