Duration of ownership: 5 Days

Strengths: Picture, ease of use, # & types of inputs/outputs

Weaknesses:Audio is average

Overall Evaluation: This TV is amazing. It has buttons to quickly adjust the color levels to Vivid, Standard, Cinema, or custom and easily change wide and zoom views. The PIP is great how you can resize and toggle the audio between the two. SD even looks great on this TV compared to my friends HD that looks grainy. The audio seems fine, I can't tell the difference with the virtual surround sound and other audio features I enabled compared to regular TV audio. It all sounds the same. Overall the picture is smooth. I did notice slight ghosting when set to Vivid (or the brightness is all the way up) when there are fast or fast dark images. When I changed the color setting I didn't notice it anymore. I first connected the cable coax directly in the TV and the cable signal got analog and digital cable channels, music channels, and only the network HD channels. It was confusing the way the channels numbers were all over the map and some were 113.1, 113.2, etc. Some channels it was able to pull info like the station id, show name, and show length, but most it didn't. I then used the cable box with coax and that worked a lot better and the rest of the HD channels I was expecting came in. Then I traded in my cable box for an HDMI cable box and the picture is perfect through that connection. I couldn't ask for anything else in an HD TV than what this Sony offers.

Duration of ownership: 1 Weeks

Strengths: Sharpness and quality of picture

Weaknesses:Speakers

Overall Evaluation: This is a great television set, beautiful picture, feature-rich and unmatched by the competition for the same amount of money spent. Watching a live sporting event, it feels as if you are right there in the stands. Outstanding value.

Duration of ownership: 75 Days

Strengths: Integrated Digital and Analog tunners, 1080p, sharp picture

Weaknesses:SD picture does not show great.

Overall Evaluation: I got this set in after thanks-giving sale. Setting up the TV was a breeze. The picture quality is great form HD source. Color is crisp, the audio is good. Since this set is not 120Hz, fast sports may not play well on this set, but I did not see that problem. The only complaint I have is that picture quality of SD sources is not very good and considering that we still have quite a few SD components, this can be a problem.

Review:

Sony Bravia 40W3000

Sony's Bravia 40W3000 is a very good set, but not a bargain one.

There's nothing wrong with Sony's 40W3000 LCD set that a good price reduction wouldn't cure. Well, not much, anyway. I noticed some lackluster details in the broadcast high-def tests, but overall the images looked good (in our November issue's HDTV roundup, the Sony came in fourth out of twelve TVs in our picture-quality tests). If I hadn't been scrutinizing the image in a testing environment, I doubt I would have found anything wrong with it.
