I'll tell you something I am sure they will not believe.

Last week, buy one and these TV, turn off the computer and went to work.

After 15 minutes but I was billed 2 TV for $ 2600.les swear I do not buy them.

When I returned in the afternoon I found this strange purchase, immediately cancel the order of these 2 TV. Rest assured, I received the Emal of cofirmacion. (Delete)

At the NEXT day I found that I had canceled 1 but I was billed 1

try to reclaim but they sent me another mail saying it could not cancel, the strange thing was that I take away 1.

After a week they told me finalmene good that I will accept the return and repayment of money,

At that moment my box already had in Colombia South America and expect it back, I was paying for the nationalization of $ 350.oo.. Amazon told me I had to regrezarlo qe EU which would cost the same.

Absurd incredible but true.

I am very sad and economic problems muhos to pay my Visa.card.

Good luck and genius

 "Excellent XBR9" 2010-01-24
By Zimzebob (Houston, TX)
This is an excellent intermediate sized television. It has a brilliant color spectrum with good blacks. Off axis viewing is the best I have encountered in an LCD set. There is no trace of motion blur.

A perfect match for a bedroom or small family room.

 "Best TV period" 2010-01-17
By Mutual Information
Having made an extensive review of HDTV's including LEDs, I would say that overall the XBR9 series is the best. I read a ton of online reviews and went to the stores to compare first hand. The LEDs from Samsung and Sony are pretty good with very wide dynamic range. But the dynamic range was too high and at times the picture became difficult to watch. The blacks dominated most of the picture. Sure you can adjust this down but why pay the additional cost of LEDs when you have to adjust the contrast back to non-LED type levels? The 100,000:1 contrast on this set seemed perfect to my eyes. And the 240 Hz was smoothest of the hundreds of sets I compared. A comparison that was easy to make since the store ran a continuous demo. I'm not sure that live ATSC and cable transmissions would benefit from 240Hz since, they are compressed video and any motion shift accompanies pixelation and lossy information. Interpolation works best when the sample points are precise and lossless. So if you don't plan to do Bluray, maybe 120Hz is plenty. The picture quality is fantastic. Primetime and daytime NBC and CBS 1080i broadcasts are amazing to watch. The color variation is so accurately reproduced that it seems you are watching a moving painting instead of a picture. Leno Show, especially during Xmas, was amazingly vivid in color and detailed that I really didn't care about the content but was simply viewing the show as a spectacle or a museum piece.



If you do buy any Bravia TVs, I would advise to buy a Bravia theatre and bluray system since the Bravia Sync is great (though you may need to switch the little speakers for larger ones). Just put the disk in and the rest of the system turns on and switches over automatically. Saves at least 5 buttom pushes and the search for 2 remotes. You will love the system.

 "Love it" 2010-01-04
By B. Bailey
What a great TV. I purchased the TV along with BluRay and home theater. With HD inputs (RF, HDMI, etc) the picture quality is stunning, absolutely stunning. The detail and color intensity blow me away on HDTV programming and especially DVDs and BluRays. The TV speaker audio quality is excellent also considering what little Sony has to play with here in terms of speaker placement and cabinet acoustics. The bottom firing speakers offer good sound quality with an extremly clean appearance to the panel. Despite this, the home theater system ( I got the HTSS360) is an amazing auditory leap from the TV alone, so put that in your cart also to take the next step.



My one wish is that analog picture quality (yes I'm a tightwad for some things, at least for now) was better. It is inferior to my 32" Sony that is 10 years old, even when compensating for picture size. (You'll likely get used to it after a bit, I did.) But I knew this going in. Analog and SD picture quality is a not too uncommon complaint on HDTV's, some manufacturers more than others. (Sony is actually not the best here if you believe Consumer Reports) Something in the analog to digital conversion (I've read various technical explanations) simply gets lost. After all, analog reception and display has been refined over 70 years. So be prepared to get an HD upgrade from your cable company or go satellite I suppose to avoid this. I imagine most people will be unlike myself and go HD on their programming when they get this TV.



Otherwise, fantastic unit. Love it.

 "Unbelievable TV! The Best EVER!" 2009-12-31
By Mallory S. Durrick (PA)
Technology doesn't get any better than this. Best Buy offered this unit with a Sony BluRay player and a Sony Amplifier with surround sound speakers for the low price of 1754.00 plus tax. We picked it up at the Store and had no trouble getting everything into the car.



The unit was hooked up with two HDMI cables and one Optical Cable but I had to use Component Cables as well. Netgear makes for ease of use when connecting to the Internet, both for the TV and for the BluRay. In one day we were watching DVD's, listening to music in surround sound and hooked up our Netflix account and Video Streaming.



Not enough can be said about this system in full. Sony outdid themselves on this one and I am so glad to own the full system.



Buy it and you will never be sorry!

 "Great Product - - - Best Price" 2009-12-31
By Howard (Jacksonville, FL)
I purchased this product in early 11/09 as part of the "See Blu" promotion which included:

- Sony BRAVIA XBR Series KDL-46XBR9

- Sony BDP-S560 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player

- Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar with Subwoofer



I am thrilled and delighted with this package. Many have said this or something similar before, but the real reason that I wanted to write this review is to talk about pricing.



I read reviews and looked at various deals on HDTVs for 1 1/2 years since the middle of 2008. I looked at Samsung, Panasonic, and SONY. I almost purchased a Sony from Amazon just after Christmas of 2008 when they were running a great sale. However, I didn't because of the 24 fps judder problem. This new Sony HDTV solves that problem whereas many other HDTVs don't. The price bottomed for one day on Saturday, 11/7, when Sony was running the "See Blu" promotion and Amazon was providing 24 month interest-free financing on the Amazon Store Card for a total price of $1386. It was a phenomenal price on a wonderful package. I purchased it a few days before and actually saw it when the price made it's final jump down by $170 from Friday to Saturday.



I expect that similar deals might be available in the future (perhaps soon) and hope that this pricing history helps everyone in your search for a great product at a great price.

 "Sony XBR9 Rocks!" 2009-12-29
By Shaker351c (Gulf Coast, Florida)
I had owned a Sony 36" XBR WEGA TV for years and was very happy with its performance, but decided it was finally time to upgrade to a HD LCD. After researching them for a couple months, I had narrowed it down to Samsung and Sony in the $1,300-1,500 price range. I choose the Sony because the picture looked more natural. I have to agree with others that reviewed the Samsung that the colors were almost too bright and the off angle view was not as sharp. I couldn't have made a better choice. This TV is amazing. The picture is clear and the HD is great, especially with blu-ray and PS3 games. I can sit back at my dining room table and view the picture from a 35 degree angle with no dark spots or distortion. I only have to have the brightness at a 40 percent level. I've read some reviews that you have to really tweak the picture settings to get the picture right, but I thought it was just fine right out of the box. The pre-set picture modes are easy to toggle through for movies or regular TV, and the 240 hz refresh rate makes games, action movies, and sports flow smoothly without any blur. As for the sound, many people complain about LCD TVs in general, but I thought this one was good. I do have to have the level turned up to 30 and it lacks some bass, but it's much better than I had expected. Lastly, the inputs and outputs are plenty. Has a digital out so I could hook into my stereo. I'm looking forward to hooking up my ethernet cable to explore the video and wiget capabilities.

 "I do not regret this purchase!!!" 2009-12-02
By K. Herber
The picture quality is AMAZING! Especially when watching Blu Rays. I now truly enjoy watching movies at home. The sound was much much better than I thought it would be after reading others reviews. However, I did buy a Bose computer speaker system to enhance my movie watching enjoyment. This is my bedroom tv so I didn't see a need for a whole surround sound setup. It does take a few seconds to power up but I don't get anxious for it. Other people make it sound like they are missing the first 5 minutes of a show or something. It is literally like a 5 second wait but worth it for energy saving. I hate how long it takes to change the channel on any TV these days but I have a TIVO so I don't have to be annoyed by that feature. Everyone who comes over comments on how much they like my tv. Some have went and bought one after seeing how nice this one is. I did a lot of research before deciding and am very happy with my decision.

 "Amazed" 2009-11-25
By backdoc (Brandon, MS)
This is my first Sony TV. I've only owned it for a few hours. I hope my opinion doesn't change.



I bought a PS3 Slim at the same time. I connected them and watched "Up" on DVD. The picture quality is nothing short of incredible. I don't know if it's the PS3, the quality of the DVD, the TV or all of the above. But, I've never seen a picture that I've been that impressed with.



I read a few reviews here complaining of the inputs on the side and the picture brightness changing. I didn't notice the picture changing brightness. It could be I have a firmware version that includes the fix for it. I'm not sure. The inputs are a little unorthodox. I have a regular HDMI cable and RCA cable plugged into the side. I don't see them from the front. So, I guess they aren't in the way. But, I would have preferred them on the back.



I recommend this TV.

It's features are easy to understand and picture is clear. Price is cheaper than local store.

By Frances I. Sanclemente (San Diego, CA United States)
WOW!! I think that every time I turn on my new 52XBR9. The colors are absolutely astounding. I've researched HDTV for several years and waited till the price on this model came down to my acceptable price range. I didn't want to settle for something less than top quality (I just retired a Sony WEGA XBR, so I'm a bit spoiled). There's no need for me to repeat all the technical attributes mentioned in other reviews. This is simply as good as a TV can get.

 "Great TV and web savvy" 2009-12-10
By S. Palmer
From what I have noticed with other LCDs is the picture looks too defined. It ultimately makes non-HD content look fake. This TV does not do that, however adjustments are necessary. I have owned another Bravia from the previous a generation and it is awesome. The sound from the TV is better than average and really a great quality sound, but get a 5:1 or better sound system for your movies. I also own a Aquos which is equally comparable to the Bravia, but the Aquos is from the 1st generation of LCD TV.



So if you don't want to plunge into LED just yet; I suggest the XBR Bravia line. There's great features in this model for connecting to on-line content, however no web browser. There's several widgets and plenty of internet feeds to wet your whistle (i.e. U-Tube...). Definitely get it if you want some internet TV... it's not blazing fast but you can still receive regular broadcasts during widget operation, incredible! But no web browser, new feeds and widgets are created and occasionally there are connection issues with widgets (it was really bad when I first got the TV but it is much better now).

 "Great TV, awesome pic/features" 2009-12-08
By jereme wilson (Kansas City, MO)
I upgraded from a 42" TV. WOW what a difference. I was worried it would be too big. however after having the TV for a few months now I can say it's a perfect size. Delivery was simple and easy. They called a few days out and gave me a few options of delivery days/times. They took the TV out of the box and set it up on the stand for me. Normally they would test it, but since it was cold out i signed a waiver that they did not test the TV and that if I had any issues once the TV warmed up they would come back and return the TV. Luckily there were no issues at all.



The internet widgets are really useful. I like that I can stream netflix to my TV and do not have to use my xbox to do this. The interface is simple and easy for netflix/ streaming video. I have a cable box , but was interested in the built in tuner/ TV guide function. It took about 15 minutes or so to scan all my channels. I picked a good amount of HD channels(QAM). The tv guide interface is slick and makes navigating the channels like having a cable box. Very cool feature. Picture quality via built in tuner is better than my Scientific Atlantic cable box over hdmi (I blame my cable box on this)



I do not use built in sound but tried it out for a bit. The built in sound sounds good for what it is, but if you are going to spend this kind of money on an HDTV you might as well pickup a surround sound setup. It was simple to shut off the built in speakers and only use the digital from TV to send to my receiver.



The picture quality on this TV is amazing. Bluray looks amazing. THe opening scene in the dark knight filmed in IMAX at full 16:9 is jaw dropping! The depth and clarity/color is stunning. Motion blur is reduced vs my previous 42" tv. There are a few clear frame/stabilization modes. Standard is the best option in my opinion. If you have it set to high it changes the intent of what a director wants you to watch the movie. For sports / reality shows I can stand the high mode, but for movies I had to switch it off.



There are different scene presets which are great! You can tweak the settings for each type of viewing mode. IE sports, gaming, movies, pc connection, etc etc. This is very useful. My TV is in a bright room (reason i got this over the sammy with a glossy screen) and during the day it's nice to have the presets for different lighting conditions/viewing content etc etc. I use the sports mode for my daytime viewing (back light / color all the way up) During the evening for TV content I use the general setting and tweaked the back light/color to be better for low light viewing. For movie watching (all lights off) I have the "theater" mode tweaked / tuned via THX optimizer (Terminator 2 bluray). TV came really close to THX spec only a few settings needed to be tweaked.



Overall I really am satisfied with this purchase/experience from amazon.

 "Good TV but couldn't mount...." 2009-12-07

The TV was very good.I opted for the bundle - TV + home theater for $1999



While mounting it on a swivel stand I noticed that out of the 4 bolt holes (on the back side of set) one hole is missing its thread. It is not the screw.bolt. I had M6 screws. Amazon couldn't provide me a replacement because they ran out of stock. I checked with Sony who suggests that the best bet would be to return to Amazon. Now that Thanks Giving sale is over, I can't get that kind of TV at that price. I am stuck with a big TV stand which I bought just to house that TV.
