excellent tv,worth for moneyJanuary 8, 2009 The good: Produces the deepest black levels of any non-LED LCD TV we've tested; accurate color temperature and color decoding; solid dejudder video processing; numerous picture controls; comprehensive complement of inputs including four HDMI and one PC; optional different-colored speaker grilles; smart styling; energy efficient.
The bad: Expensive; some color accuracy issues; black levels fluctuate somewhat in dark scenes; below-average screen uniformity; dejudder modes produce artifacts.
The bottom line: The 52-inch Sony KDL-52XBR6 LCD is a bit too expensive for the level of picture quality it delivers, but its styling and best-in-class black levels help its case.
White glove service was greatJanuary 6, 2009 Sony picture is fantastic. Delivery took one week, box was pristine on arrival. They called to set up a time and were prompt. I was nervous about delivery because I live in a small town (Bend, OR.), and wasn't sure I could get white glove delivery. They came from Portland, OR., over three hours away, and the other side of the Cascade mountain range. Two guys who even helped me mount it on my wall bracket! After reading some of the comments about delivery problems, I can say Ceva transportation was perfect.
Sony 52XBR6January 6, 2009 I looked long, and did lots of research before purchasing this model. It has very good color, no problems with fast motion (hockey games are a good test)
The only negative is that the Ethernet connection is only for updates, and does not have web access. You'd think it would have been a no brainer.
It was delivered, on time, for free, by two guys in a van. They unboxed it, and made sure it powered up. No problems there.
The price was good, not the lowest on the Internet, but there was no attempt to sell me any accessories, like the New York camera stores do, and what I got was new and not gray market, it was worth it. The Amazon guy on the phone was polite and helpful.
Big TV in the living roomJanuary 6, 2009 Yep, I finally gave in and let my husband put a 52" Sony LCD in the living room. I am happy to report that the delivery carrier was on time, courteous, and competent, and the TV has no apparent problems. I am amazed at the functionality - seems more like a computer than a TV. The Wii hookup took just seconds; the USB connection allows me to show photos from a jump drive. Thankfully, the learning curve has been minimal.
Sony Bravia 52in XBR6January 6, 2009 This is an amazing TV. Picture quality is excellent. Features and ability to connect any type of device you could imagine make it ideal for any application. I researched several models and vendors for about 6 months before this purchase and it met every expectation. I would purchase it again.
