The 46" KDL46BX450 LCD HDTV from Sony is a slim, stylish screen that has an integrated NTSC / ATSC / QAM tuner, which receives digital terrestrial, analog cable, and unencrypted digital cable signals alike. With integrated BRAVIA Sync, there's always something to watch.

Fine details and textures appear in whatever you're watching, even in flat areas. Powered by Sony's advanced noise reduction algorithm, this technology boosts image clarity with heightened contrast and depth that you won't find on most televisions.

Watch movies the way they were meant to be seen. Sony's 24p True Cinema technology allows the TV to maintain a movie's original 24 frames per second (fps) rate so it looks less like television and more like it would in the movie theater. 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.

Lastly, operate and control other BRAVIA Sync compatible devices - including BRAVIA HDTVs, Blu-ray disc players, surround sound systems, Handycam camcorders and Cyber-shot digital still cameras, all with one remote control.

Full HD 1080p

Four HD Inputs
Plug into the action with versatile HD connection options. Four HD inputs include two HDMI® inputs for sources like your HD cable box, home theater system, Blu-ray disc player or PS3™ system, one HD component input and a PC input (HD 15-pin) which lets you use your HDTV as a computer monitor
Picture Settings Made Easy
Now adjusting the picture is as easy as changing the channel. Just make a quick choice among eight preconfigured audio and video settings for a customized fit to what you're watching. Scene Select options include sports, photo, game, cinema and music
Handheld Gaming Goes Gig

          Comments about Sony 46" KDL46BX450 LCD HDTV:

          This set is our residential primary viewing set. It set up quickly and worked properly when switched on. The picture is spectacular. There is one mild disappointment: we use an external soundbar, and this set gives fewer options for control of external sound than our previous 32" Sony Bravia. We can live with that. Good news is that the "normal" viewing mode fills the entire height of the screen (it didn't on the 32" set) so only the sides of the screen are not used. I cannot bear to watch the distorted "wide zoom" modes - why are they even included? The remote is an improvement on the previous remote with more logical button placement and functions. If the set were stolen tomorrow, I would replace it with the same thing.

            The HDTV is the main TV in our home....great picture and sound. Easy to install and great value.
            Great service from B&H as usual. When I called for an email of a copy of my invoice, I accidently hung up. Josh called me back in order to insure that I received the information that I requested. Great customer care!
