Pros Great Detail, no Fade to Black
Cons HEAVY, expensive
Recommended it? Yes

If I had to describe this great Television in 1 word, it would be Extremely Heavy. Yes I know thats 2 words but its needed to express how truely heavy this TV is. Other than weighing more than an elephant this is one of the greatest innovations in TV history. The flat picture screen allows you to... Read full review »

Pros After calibration, a stunning picture
Cons WAY too heavy. It's still interlaced.
Recommended it? Yes

This TV has 4 picture modes to select from, and you need them all. You need to adjust just about everything you can adjust for EACH different video source. The picture modes allow you to save all the different set ups. For example, once I had a mode set up to look best for DVD. That mode became... Read full review »

Pros BEST audio/video content, flat screen, aesthetics
Cons Pricey, weighs like a sumo wrestler
Recommended it? Yes

For those of you television junkies who are drooling for the best in picture, sound, and overall aesthetic appeal, look no further than the Sony WEGA.

Pros picture quality on digital sources
Cons sensitivity to magnetic fields; scan lines; uneven brightness; price; sony customer...
Recommended it? No

I will start off with the description of flaws and annoyances most WEGA sets seems to share. The sensitivity of this tv to magnetic fields is beyond belief. When my set suddenly developed extensive color bleeding, I could've never guessed that it was triggered by my neighbour's redecorating her... Read full review »

I no longer go to theaters

Pros Crisp image, great colors
Cons Quality control is somewhat lacking
Recommended it? Yes

Like the title says, I no longer go to movie theaters. I'd rather wait for the movie to come out on DVD as the image on my Wega XBR is generally superior to the image I get on the screen in the theater.

The flat glass display is phenominal. It takes a few days to get used to it, but that's... Read full review »

Pros Picture Quality, Sony, HDTV Ready, S video, Video 1, 2, 3, 4, great speakers.
Cons expensive, heavy
Recommended it? Yes

This is probably the best you can get without spending another two thousand dollars. Sony never does anything below top quality, and this TV is a great example of that. It's flat tube makes it crystal clear, with minimal annoying glare, yet makes it great for viewing from all different angles. But... Read full review »

Pros Crisp Picture, Good Sound
Cons Price, Heavy
Recommended it? Yes

Sony's 36 inch XBR Wega TV provides the good quality most have come to expect with the Sony name. A quick tour through any electronics store and you'll be able to safely say that this TV provides a crisp picture, one better than most sets. Alongside that better picture though, is a heftier price... Read full review »

The 250's are out and they have a few extra features. Like a cordless headphone(transmitter built in to the front of the TV). 3d Comp Filter give excellent contrast between the forground subject and the background.

Very nice TV. I chose it over a 53KV80 projection TV.

Updated review on March 21, 2001.
I wrote this review several months ago. Since then a ground wire in my set broke off (Sony is calling it a fluke) and send sparks flying inside my set. The short story is that I need to spend $1400 for new parts including a new tube and... Read full review »
