Choosing a Sony LCD TV
Summary
If you've recently watched a soccer match at a sports pub, you probably noticed the impressive large-screen TV with its sharp, fluid picture and felt a twinge of envy. The good news is that these massive displays have become much more affordable, with prices dropping by nearly 40% since 2006. There are numerous manufacturers and models to consider.
Understanding Broadcast Quality
In the UK, slightly over half of broadcasters transmit digital high-definition signals, and this number is expected to rise. HDTV signals are typically broadcast in either 1080i or 1080p formats. The "1080" refers to the number of scan lines, while "i" stands for interlaced (less expensive, slightly more flicker) and "p" for progressive scan (higher quality). By comparison, standard PAL resolution is much lower.
Digital TV displays usually have a 16:9 aspect ratio, similar to what's used in cinemas, providing a more immersive viewing experience. However, not all HDTVs offer full 1920 x 1080 resolution. Some may run at 1366 x 768, which is more economical but offers lower resolution.
Why Choose Sony?
Sony distinguishes itself through its superior electronics. Their TVs feature a patented color matching system called BRAVIA, which enhances the warmth of digital colors. Sony’s robust backlighting system also contributes to its excellent picture quality. However, the largest models can weigh over 50 kilos, so professional wall mounting is recommended.
Recommended Models
One notable model is the KDL-52X2000, featuring a massive 52-inch (132 cm) display. Remarkably, it consumes only about 300 watts, which is efficient for its size. With a depth of 13 cm, it’s ideal for wall mounting, though proper ventilation is necessary. This model also includes Dolby-surround capable speakers, offering 22 total Watts for excellent sound quality.
For those with a more modest budget, the KDL-46X2000 offers nearly identical features at a reduced size of 46 inches (117 cm) and is 2,000 pounds cheaper. Even smaller models maintain similar features but with reduced programmability, costing around 2,000 pounds. At the lower end, "HD Ready" TVs with lower resolution are available at bargain prices, as many vendors are eager to clear stock. For these, replace the "X" in the model numbers with a "V."
Conclusion
Choosing a Sony LCD TV means investing in quality electronics, impressive picture and sound, and a range of models to suit different budgets. Whether you're looking for a top-of-the-line model or a more affordable option, Sony offers excellent choices.
