Pros: a fine well-tuned picture especially with DVD & HDTV
Cons: convergence required 6X;
picture tubes now replaced by more expensive ones
The Bottom Line: I have done my research and am pleased with the quality, and it's worth comparison shopping to be able to enjoy this giant step in viewing!

| baggs4935's Full Review: Sony KP-57HW40 57 in. TV |
I'm still spasmodically happy with the picture; when it's
adjusted . When I complained to the dealer he said
I should step up to a newer model - this one was 1 month old.
But by perseverance I found a technician willing to go the extra mile. I'm happy that Sony has SOME reputable
dealers and service contractors!
The picture tubes were cheaper than those in smaller
sets - to their credit Sony replaces them with better
quality tubes . This is 5 months into ownership
and adjustments are ongoing.
Now that newer models are out ,I can't speak to them,
but with a big expense the better part of valour would
be to check with the after - service tek to better
predict just what you're getting into. New update
- manufacturer just extended the normal warranty unsolicited by another year; I believe that's more than fair, and more than one would expect. Let's hope it's a trend!
