Comment: I purchased the SONY BRAVIA XBR KDL-40XBR4 40" IN Dec. 2007, for $1899.98
three weeks ago the TV went totally black,the had been no surge and the TV
is on its own power line; I called an authorized service center
and was told that SONY has been having a problem with this size TV, if I wanted
it fixed it would cost $1200 plus service charge, according to the service center
it is a light on the panel, however, unlike other HD TVs you cannot just buy the
light you have to replace the whole panel. BUYER BEWARE

Summary: Great TV but early LCD Failure 2010-06-16
Comment: I bought the unit direct from SONYSTYLE for $2200.00 in Jan 2009. It had an 18 month warranty and I bought a 4-year extended warranty ($200)from SONY. Good thing to. The main digital circuit board and LDC panal failed at 17 months 20 days, just before warranty expired. SONY has been very responsive for service and is replacing the entire unit with a KDL40XBR9(refurbished) unit under warranty. SONY no longer offers the KDL40XBR7 set except as a refurbished unit for $1350. I'm otherwise very pleased with the set except for the major component failure at 18 months. The Amazon price is a good deal, but try to get an extended warranty from a reputable source. The replacement unit (KDL40XBR9) is a better unit with faster refresh rate (240Hz vs. 120Hz for the XBR7).
The replacement KDL40XBR9(refurbished) unit has performed excellantly. Very pleased with it to date.

Summary: Stunning!! 2010-06-05
Comment: I researched the LCD TV arena extensively and Sony kept coming up
as the "Top Dog". I found the Sony KDL-46XBR9 on sale from Crutchfield for
$999.00 delivered and jumped on it.
The set-up was as quick as 1-2-3. The picture? Wow!!! I was blown away.
Sound quality could be better but overall this TV can't be beat for the price.

Comment: The tv gets compliments from everyone that comes over. Killer picture quality! Can't go wrong with a Bravia! I'm not being a sony fan-boy but with all the research I've done, many experts point right back to the Bravia.

Comment: This TV was over $2600 when new, 900 bucks is a steal! I always tend to buy the best TVs you can get about 10 months after they come out and you can really save. This one is no dissappointment.
