The KDL-32BX330 32" LCD HDTV from Sony is an ideal choice. This slim, stylish screen has an integrated NTSC / ATSC / QAM tuner, which receives digital terrestrial, analog cable, and unencrypted digital cable signals alike.
Regardless of what you're watching or playing, digital noise reduction enhances detail in whatever you're watching with meticulous processing. It even helps clean up video from USB and other PC sources so the picture looks pristine and vivid.
With 720p high definition playback, the effective scanning line is 720, which is more than twice the number in conventional standard definition format. The difference between HD picture and SD quality is immediately noticeable. The wider 16:9 aspect ratio of HD approximates the shape of the human visual field, making you feel like you are actually in the picture.
While conventional televisions (and most DVDs) operate at 50Hz, modern film-makers record their films onto Blu-ray disc using 24 frames per second (24Hz or 24p). With 24p True Cinema, your LCD HDTV will automatically recognize these films and select the correct format for playback so you see and hear the film just as in the theater.
The Sony KDL-32BX330 32" LCD HDTV is a great choice when you want big entertainment.

Nice picture right out of the box! This is one of the few TVs that can be enjoyed at the default factory settings. Sony got this one right! We had to adjust the sound (slightly) to lessen the impact of the high-pitched sound spectrum (a bit tinny sounding) but this is normal for all HDTVs with those small built-in speakers. The end result was excellent sound that was tuned to my wife's taste! I want to buy another one but my wife is the budget-master and she says we have to wait a bit. In my opinion, its actually a 4.5 star TV but I couldn't rate it as such.

This TV does not have a flat back and the brackets supplied for the top mounts for a wall mount are weak at best. The manual calls for a mount that is discontinued. The manual needs a detailed index, too much time spent looking for specific settings and instructions. The sound quality is very poor, the speakers face down and there is no menu settings for tones of bass and treble.

We finally upgraded our exercise room television. The audio is very good even with treadmill background noise. We're sorry we waited so long. The Sony is the third Bravia in the house. The picture quality is fantastic. B&H Photo's price was very competitive.

This product is incredible. I got it to replace an old TV we had for years. I was unaware how poor the picture quality on the old set was until I saw this. Clear, crisp images and excellent audio quality. I got it at a great price, it's worth more than I paid. Highly recommend.

PICTURE WONDERFUL. Love the ease with which I can change the width, etc. Sound just okay. Had problems attaching the base because fingers were'nt long enough to put screws in place. Had to have help doing this. Truly enjoy watching now.

Can't beat a Sony, although the sound quality could be better, after tweaking the sound levels a little, it isn't bad. Great tv for a bedroom or office setting.
