I was crazy about this TV when we got it about 1 1/2 years ago from Circuit City. We were looking at plasmas but were talked into this one. Chunked out $3,000 for it but it was well worth it! Awesome picture, excellent sound. No better TV for your HD service. There are plenty of connection slots,... Read full review »

I have had the Sony SXRD 50 inch tv for five months now and I am very pleased with my choice of this TV. I believe it offers the most gorgeous HD picture you can buy today. I would not call myself a video expert, but as a graphic designer who works all day on a razor-sharp 23 inch LCD HD display,... Read full review »

I have been researching big screen TV's since the Black Friday sales after Thanksgiving. I was going to be content with a CRT-based rear projection television that was on sale.
