BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Set up was brain dead simple with a very good schematic showing different options for different types of attachments/VCRs etc. Picture quality is excellent as is the remote control. Sound is very average but as it is hooked up to my Bose System I can, if I want, get the full bodied audio to suit the program being watched.Overall a great TV set.
Cons: Average sound quality
Pros: Energy Efficient, Outstanding picture clarity/resolution, Setup is as easy as it gets, All the connections options I could ever, Best looking TV out there, Great Picture Quality, Good Remote Control, Reduced Glare

Unlike Sony, the screws to put the stand together were never included in the packaging. Had to call [@] to resolve that ~ still waiting on result. We use our ATT UVerse remote instead of the Sony supplied remote.Otherwise for the $$$, this is an excellent buy.

Fantastic
Reviewed by Critical Purchaser (Enthusiast) from Chicago area on Feb 17, 2010
Verified Reviewer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Just purchased this on 2/16/10. Setup was super easy - chose the vivid picture setting and adjusted it slightly. I am using an HDMI cable from my Comcast HD cable box. I cannot believe how good this TV is for the price. It is my first HD TV and I'm glad I waited. I was thinking about the 46" but now that I have the 40" it is plenty big in my living room. I also don't notice any issues with it being 60hz, even watching sports. The sound is very good as well. The fact that you can get a Sony of this quality and size for under $700 is almost un real.
Pros: Great Sound Quality, Good Connection Options, Attractive Design, Good Resolution, Good Remote Control, Reduced Glare, Great Picture Quality, Fast Setup
