LOVE THIS SONY BRAVIA 50" TV

a bargain hunter, technically challenged

Pros

several hdmi hookups, excellent color contrast, good color even in bright lit room, great resolution even on non-hd programs, good audio output even w/o speakers, quiet (many tvs have buzzing noise)

Sony - BRAVIA 50" KDF-50E3000 1080p Rear-Projection LCD HDTV —

LAST OCTOBER WE WERE JUST STARTING TO LOOK FOR A LARGER SCREENED TV WHEN WE CAME ACROSS THE SONY BRAVIAS THEY WERE GOING TO DISCONTINUE. WELL WE FOUND THEY WERE CLEARING THEM OUT ACROSS ALL ELECTRIC STORES IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS. CIRCUIT CITY CAME UP WITH A 3-4 DAY SPECIAL OF $1248. BUT WE COULDN'T MAKE THE 120 MILE DRIVE IN TIME. WE LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF KANSAS (THE DESOLATE PART) WHERE WALMART RULES. SO WE WENT TO LOOK AT THE SPECIALS AT OTHER STORES CLOSER TO OUR HOME AND COULD NOT FIND ONE OF THE QUALITIES WE LIKED IN THE SONY BRAVIA. THIS IS A DLP 50" WITH EASY PLUG IN OPTIONS. WE WERE NOT QUITE READY FOR A LCD OR PLASMA YET AS THEY REALLY DO NOT SERVE OUR PURPOSE OF JUST WANTING A BIGGER SCREENED TV THAT CAN EASILY BE HOOKED UP TO OUR EXISTING SONY SPEAKERS AND OUR FUTURE BLU RAY DVD PLAYER. WITHIN THE 3-4 DAY SALE CIRCUIT CITY WAS HAVING MY DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY CAME DOWN THE WEEK AFTER THANKSGIVING AND DECIDED TO TRY AND FIND THIS TV WE WANTED SO THEY COULD CARRY IT IN AND HOOK IT UP FOR US. LO AND BEHOLD MY DAUGHTER TOLD ME ABOUT SEARS HAVING A PRICE MATCH OFFER. IF WE COULD FIND THE IDENTICAL ITEM FOR LESS THEY WOULD MATCH THEIR COMPETITORS PRICE. THEY SOLD IT TO US FOR THE $1248, LOADED IT UP AND WE TOOK IT HOME. THEY ARE STILL MAKING ALL SIZES OF SONY BRAVIAS AND WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE OURS. THE PICTURE IS WONDERFUL AS IS THE SOUND. WE CHOSE TO TAKE THE FIVE YEAR WARRANTY PLAN JUST TO MAKE SURE OUR FIRST REPLACEMENT BULB WILL BE PAID FOR BY SEARS AS GUARANTEED. THE LONGWEST PART OF TRANSACTING THIS SALE WAS THE SALES LADY BEING PUT ON HOLD BY THE OTHER STORE TO VERIFY THE PRICE. I ALMOST DID NOT GO INTO OUR LOCAL SEARS THINKING IT WAS PROBABLY TOO SMALL A SITE TO CARRY TV'S. I'M GLAD MY DAUGHTER CAME WHEN SHE DID AND ENCOURAGED ME TO STOP IN AND CHECK SEARS OUT FOR AN EASIER TRANSACTION.
