Sony Bravia XBR KDL-32XBR4 32" LCD HDTV

Sony has long ranked highly as a leader in LCD tehcnology, as praised in reviews across the Internet, and it's easy to see why. Sony extends the dominance of its Bravia series of LCD HDTVs with sets like the 32" XBR KDL-32XBR4.

With newer features like 120Hz Motionflow technology that displays smoother motion in scenes of fast-moving action, along with Bravia Theatre Sync which makes it easy to set up and adjust HDMI inputs, the KDL-32XBR4 is instantly a leader in the field of 32" LCD HDTVs.

You'll really notice the outstanding picture clarity and depth of color when you watch high-definition movies or play games on next-gen consoles like the Playstation3 or Xbox 360.


The XBR line of Bravia's is considered Sony's premier series of televisions, and the company packs its latest technologies into sets like the KDL-32XBR4. Newer features include HDMI-CEC ports allowing for remote home theatre control, and DMeX capability, which enables you to hook up the optional Bravia Internet Video Link Module along with other servies as they are made available.

Ultimately, though, there's a number of factors to consider if you're wondering if the KDL-32XBR4 is the best LCD HDTV for you.

Let's walk through just a few of them...



- How far do you plan to sit from the set? If much further than eight feet, you're not likely to appreciate the high definition picture the KDL-32XBR4 delivers. If so, consider an HDTV with a larger screen.

- Do you currently own or plan to own devices capable of delivering high-definition pictures to the television (like Blu-Ray or HD-DVD players, or game consoles like Xbox 360 or PS3)? If not, you may not need to pay the extra for high definition now... but if you do, you'll be "future-proof" and ready for the new technology to come.

- Have you read the comparisons of LCD vs. plasma vs. DLP HDTVs and determined that LCD is the right way for you to go? (Benefits include bright, crisp pictures... negatives include loss of picture clarity when viewing LCD sets on an angle.)

- Have you done comparisons of the leaders in LCD technology (Sony vs. Samsung vs. Sharp, and the rest)? As we mentioned above, Sony is ranked a leader in ratings from across the web, but the other manufacturers certainly have outstanding HDTVs to consider.
