Pros H/DTV display capability, excellent audio with built-in speakers.
Cons Only one hi-scan component input, 4:3 aspect ratio.
Recommended it? Yes


The Sony KP-53HS10 is a popular 4:3 H/DTV-ready television which has been on the market for about a year now. In fact, within the next few months Sony is bringing out two very-similar replacements for this TV, the KP-53HS20 and the KP-53HS30 (features almost identical in the two new TV's --...

HDTV Ready...Excellent Value...Can This Be True?

Pros If You Hate Widescreen...Then This Is For You, High Quality, It's A Sony
Cons Ready...No HDTV Reciever Included (Around $600 more)
Recommended it? No

When I first saw HDTVs, I was attracted, but there was one thing that kept me back... the widescreen and the cost. Throughout my lifetime, I have been raised to love Sony, and only Sony; but now I'm an audiophile using assorted brands (Marantz and Yamaha). Sony tody remains my #2 favorite TV maker,...

Pros PIP, Center Speaker, Abundant Input/Outputs, Great Price
Cons Screen Glare
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this model a couple of months ago at a bargain. I?m assuming that it was less than 2K because of the newer models that are out. I went to the showroom of a local dealer and I was immediately impressed with the picture quality. I also liked the styling of the cabinet.

Setup &... Read full review »

Pros Sony, Hi-scan, HDTV ready.
Cons Not widescreen, DTV tuner separate.
Recommended it? Yes

I was recently helping my brother looking for a big screen TV for his new house he just purchased. He has a decent size living room so we know we need a TV around 50-60".

We looked at numerous TVs and we both agreed that the Sony KP-53HS10 is one of the best. It has 1080i hi scan lines if... Read full review »

Will Regret This TV later!

Pros You will Say WOW when you see this TV with HDTV.
Cons Not widescreen. Will regret this TV later.
Recommended it? Yes

Be careful when shelling out about $3000 for a television. When this TV first came out about 8 or 9 months ago, it sold like hot cakes. (It is End of June 2001 right now) But now, no one is buying it. Everyone wants the widescreen HDTV. The reason for this? Better value, and it will be better in... Read full review »

Pros Great sound.
Cons Screen glare. Picture in a picture difficult to use.
Recommended it? No

We purchased this TV new 18 months ago. The "D board" has gone out and a new part is over $700.00 not including labor. The labor will be almost $200.00. Then there is a service call charge of $96.00. The Sony people wanted me to take the set to a certified Sony repair shop to be fixed. This repair... Read full review »

Pros Great Picture
Cons TV died after only 3 years.
Recommended it? No

I purchased the 53' Sony in 2000 and have enjoyed the sound and picture of this television very much. However, just a few days ago the A-board fried while I was watching a program. The replacement part is going to be at least $1,000 and Sony is not willing to offer any relief on the cost of this... Read full review »
