Sony 32" BRAVIA XBR Series Black LCD Flat Panel HDTV, Model KDL32XBR6

Online Guides:

Looking for XBR® performance and design in a small screen TV - Experience Sony unique features like an enhanced Xross Media Bar® with 3D graphics and integrated TV Guide program information, DMex functionality that allows you to add capabilities to your TV, and BRAVIA Engine 2™ for an even better picture. Add to that the sophisticated design you've come to expect from the XBR® line and 1080p capability, and you can see why we say that the KDL-32XBR6 packs a lot of punch in a very small package.

Features:

  • Full HD 1080p
    Full HD 1080p means our connections accept 1080p signals and the Display will render that signal in Full HD 1080p. The flexibility of native 1920 x 1080 displays allows any High Definition content to be viewed without the need to downconvert images to the native Resolution of the Display. Take full advantage of Blu-ray Disc™ players and PlayStation®3 systems that can deliver 1080p content
  • DMex
    Sony’s Digital Media Extender (DMex) offers a Digital connection path for optional modules like the BRAVIA Internet Video Link, as well as other modules you can add in the future. Innovative DMex expansion capabilities integrate into the award-winning XMB™ user interface making HDTVs a powerful entertainment platform that not only meets Current needs, but expands to meet tomorrow’s needs as well
  • BRAVIA® Engine™ Technology
    The latest version of Sony’s respected BRAVIA Engine fully Digital video processor uses a collection of unique SONY algorithms to significantly reduce noise and produce sharp, vibrant, life-like images... Dynamic Noise Reduction: Intelligently identifies and dramatically reduces noise in the signal according to the motion and Brightness of each scene for clearer, crisper images. Detail Enhancement: Improved image enhancement algorithms render greater overall detail. Contrast Enhancement: Works with the Advanced Contrast Enhancer circuit to optimize the Contrast for every scene to create better depth and reality. BRAVIA Engine technology optimizes the color, Contrast, detail and clarity of every scene for the exceptional performance that BRAVIA HDTVs are known for
  • Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE)
    Part of the cinematic drama in film-making comes from details found in shadows and dark areas of the picture. Sony’s Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) uses real-time image processing to dynamically adjust backlight levels for improved Contrast without masking details the filmmaker intended you to see. ACE delivers deep blacks in darker scenes, as well as fine details in shadows and other dark areas of the picture for a difference you can truly see
  • TV Guide® On-Screen Interactive Program Guide
    The TV Guide On-screen IPG delivers continually updated program listings to users. The guide requires no subscription fees or phone connection and is available at no extra cost to the consumer. Sony is the first company to integrate the TV Guide On-Screen User Interface into a custom interface — Sony's exclusive Xross Media Bar™ user interface
  • Rich Graphics
    Delivering a fun user experience is what the new rich graphics are designed to do. Accessing video content and sharing Digital photos with your family and friends on an HDTV is now fast, easy and fun. Colorful thumbnails cascade before your eyes allowing you to visually choose what you want to see. Viewing Digital images through Sony’s photo Viewer is now more organized and can be quickly accessed
  • Enhanced (XMB™) User Interface with Rich 3D Graphics
  • 24p True Cinema
    Movies and many prime time TV programs are captured at 24 frames per second (24p). Sony’s Blu-ray Disc™ players wisely take advantage of this by including 24p output capability allowing a compatible connection with BRAVIA® HDTVs that have this capability. The benefit— You can watch movies in natural, cinematic motion, the way they are seen at the cinema. Every single frame of the movie can now be seen without using additional video processing that converts film-based images to video reproduction. Additionally, 24p True Cinema input capability can be used along with Motionflow™ 120Hz technology for outstanding fluid motion beyond what you would typically see at the cinema. Once you experience 24p video it will be hard to view video without it

        Comments about Sony 32" BRAVIA XBR Series Black LCD Flat Panel HDTV:

        I bought 2 Sony KDL32XBR6 TVs after doing months of research online & in local chain stores. I decided on this model because of the 1080p capabilitty in the 32" size which was as large as I could go due to space constraints in the two rooms where I'm using the TVs. The quality of this Sony product is excellent, fantastac HD quality, great sound, & easy controls/remote. I'm glad I finally took the plunge with this product!

        Service and delivery comments:

        This was my first time ordering from Abt & I would highly recommend them to everyone! I ordered my 2 Sony KDL32XBR6 TVs around 3:30 PM Eastern time on a Monday afternoon & the TVs arrived via UPS at 9:30 AM Eastern time Thursday morning of that same week. The day after delivery, I contacted Abt regarding a lower price I'd seen online & they immediately processed a credit for the price difference under their Price Matching Policy. Abt provided excellent service all the way around!!

          Placed Tv in the bedroom. Like the Design, resolution and picture. found the remote odd because the channel and volume buttons are on the bottom of a long remote.

              The set has many picture adjustment controls but some require professional equipment to optimize the settings. I have the equipment and the picture benefitted quite a bit with my tweaking. Since it's a 1080p TV it looks great with Blu ray DVD movies.

                Comments about Sony 32" BRAVIA XBR Series Black LCD Flat Panel HDTV:

                I have owed/ still own other Sony tv's and I still like them. I waited for this one to come out because I wanted a 32in. tv with 120hz updating. Side by side tv's show that the 120hz does help with screen jitter even on 32in. tv's.
                The set worked nice out of the box. Being a little nerdy, I used a set-up dvd (Avia) to further set up the tv. Most of the factory settings were close.
                We only use off air antenna. The ATSC and NTSC tuners work fine. The optical audio out worked fine. I find that if both the tv audio and the surround set(optical out) are used at the same time there is a slight echo. It appears to be a timing issue between the surround decoder and the tv decoder.
                For dvds, the picture is unbeatable For off air tv, (all modes 480p,720p,1080i) I still think that my HD Crt Sony has a better picture. I think this is due to the CRT phosphorous softening the picture just enough to cover the flaws in the off air transmission. This LCD tv is so good, it shows the flaws, thus making the picture look computerized.
                Maybe this 48 year old is still used to CRT tvs!
