Very Happy With Decision

"We researched LCD/Plasma options for over a year, then learned of the award winning Sony A3000 line. The feature/option set - this set does almost everything - and the fact that each feature/option can be individually employed and controlled were big selling points. However - the default factory settings are also perfect, making for an easy setup. The picture leaves us speechless, especially for movies in Cinema..." Read Full Review »

Why buy a Sony?

"I have a 34xbr910 I purchased less than 5 years ago. Took it to a shop after it failed only to discover that the circuit board it needs is no longer available. I have owned Sony TVs for 20 years, but never again. What a piece of JUNK! Don't buy Sony!..." Read Full Review »
