I bought this TV because I had a space issue my wall unit was only 38 3/4" wide and this unit was one of only a few that would fit in the opening I also wanted the 120 hz motion flow and 1080p for the blue ray player I bought with the TV This TV has outstanding color and is easy to set up I did not have to change any of the factory settings The only thing I notice was when you watch a movie in blue ray you better put the TV in cinema mode not vivid because it looks to fake. sony needs to work on the remote the inter circle and the outer circle can throw you off when doing changes to menu or inputs your finger tends to hit the outer circle and then you have to start over again from Crutchfield.com Pros: Clear image, smooth motion, automatic image brightness, reasonable price. Cons: Makes limits of your cable company obvious. The Bottom Line: Looking for a general use flat screen TV perfectly adapted to what people on a budget are doing without making you feel like you compromised? ?This is it. from Shopping.com The price from Crutchfield was good; delivery went just as advertised. The set is presently running off "analog" cable (no cable box), which turns out to have 28 unsuspected digital (about 10 HD) channels too. The analog channels are all quite good (better than my two recent vintage analog TVs), the digital ones are very good, and the HD are spectacular. Really excellent color, brightness, contrast; surprisingly good surround sound. from Crutchfield.com Bought this TV about a week ago, got it at CompUSA here in Florida.. Was on sale for $850 so I jumped on it as I was in the market to buy a TV (Ironically enough AMAZON screwed me and my order and just said 'opps' sorry and nothing else) so they lost my business and I saved about 300-400 bucks. from Amazon.com Can anyone who owns this Z series TV with the silver bezel comment on whether it is actually stainless metal or just silver-colored plastic? Thanks! from Amazon.com Couldn't be happier with my Sony 40" Z - actually was not really prepared for the impact it would have on my viewing. Picture is stunning, and the sound much better than other brands I checked out in this price range. from Amazon.com Not too thin like the new Samsung which seems flimzy and subject to easy damage. All the input and output choices you could want including an Ethernet port, USB, 4 HDMIs, etc. If I had to pick a weak point, I would say the sound is not as good as advertised which is unusual for Sony but I don't depend on the internal speakers anyway so I don't care. Over all, a great TV with excellent picture and good quality sound, just not the simulated 5-channel performance that is advertised. from Amazon.com Our old tv we had for the past 19 years went out and my husband was over joyed. We looked at all of the latest mfg/models and the Sony Bravia Z series stood out from all of it's competition. from Amazon.com We did a lot of research and viewed many different TVs over a three month period before settling on this Sony Bravia. We have been completely satisfied with its performance, clarity, brightness, and ease of installation. from Amazon.com By now, you should know all about this TV's specs - 120 hz, special Sony technology that's just one notch below XBR, etc. Aesthetically, this TV is same as the rest of the cheaper W- and Z-series. from Amazon.com
