Even though the TV’s box has a big “Dolby Digital” logo, and marketing specification claim DD, this TV cannot output DD 5.1 audio when using its ATSC or QAM tuner. I don’t know how Sony can get away with this, promising something but not delivering it.

Other than this flaw, the picture quality is great, so I give 3 stars.

I would say it is a decent TV. I bought this with a lot of hype. I had some issues with CC settings(It was not working and I had to go to factory setting to get it back). Other than that it is decent TV.

This TV is nice but…….it was supposed be delivered in 5-7 days but it took 9 days because I called the freight company (which was not the company Dell originally told me was handling it). When I asked when it was coming they said we have to find it first ! Then it arrived without the HDMI cable which was to be included, so that took another 5 days to get from Dell. If you complain to Dell they will eventually make it right and give you some $$ back for your inconvenience.

There’s nothing more than I can say, other than that this TV is awesome. Love the picture. It absolutely blows my mind. I have a sony bravia surround 7.1 setup for it, and I will never have to go to the movies, since the movies are playing in my living room. Take that Barry Obama, you can try to take away my healthcare, but you can’t take away my blu-ray.

Just got this TV last weekend…picture quality on regular channels IS FAR WORSE than on my cheapo $300 regular TV we had used for years! Anyway, We have a HD Comcast box…and the HD Channels are really great, but most of the channels are regular..and they are HORRIBLE!!! I mean there is a constant GRAININESS to all the channels, its just hard to even try to watch a channel…or everything looks like its from a camcorder. I am not happy. Then yesterday, the sound just died…its still there, don’t get me wrong, but I hear this buzzing sound behind the sound from the TV and its SO LOW I can hardly hear the words people are saying. OK, so sound is bad now, and buzzing noise, and normal channels SUCK SO BAD its not even funny! It’s unwatchable..I was expecting a little more from a $1500 tv, i am returning it this weekend! Maybe I will get Samsung.
