See Super Bowl through Sony |
In spite of the high price, this is a fabulous TV. The black levels equal plasma sets and the dimensionality and resolution is
outstanding. Watching Avatar on this set was eye opening - the opening scene of the spaceship approaching Pandora is amazing in the sense of depth, contrast, vividness of color and inky blacks. The TV looks great off as well thanks to the monolithic design with a single piece of Gorilla Glass making up the entire front of the unit. The only downside is the base is pretty wobbly.
There are rumors going around of pervasive flaws/defects in this line, but my set is perfect (as I'm sure most are). As a bonus it barely gets warm - the power consumption appears to be quite low, far below the nameplate data would indicate.
Delivery by CEVA was flawless as well - 2 guys carried it in, unboxed it, checked that it powered up, assembled the base to the TV and placed it where I wanted.
If you can swing the price, I can't imagine many people being disappointed with this set. Aside from the Sharp Elite (way more money) and a couple of plasma models, the Sony 929 is about as good as it gets for flat panel TV's at this point in time.
