 Part of the cinematic drama in film-making comes from details found in shadows and dark areas of the picture. Sony’s Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE)n uses real-time image processing to dynamically adjust backlight levels for improved contrast without masking details the filmmaker intended you to see. ACE delivers deep blacks in darker scenes, as well as fine details in shadows and other dark areas of the picture for a difference you can truly see.Go back to list of all features. |
 The TV Guide On-screen IPG delivers continually updated program listings to users. The guide requires no subscription fees or phone connection and is available at no extra cost to the consumer. Sony is the first company to integrate the TV Guide On-Screen User Interface into a custom interface — Sony’s exclusive Xross Media Bar user interface. (Found in all V, W, Z, and XBR Series HDTVs) Go back to list of all features. |
 In 2007 Sony included HDMI™ CEC capability in select HDTV and BRAVIA Theatre™ Home Audio products, which led to a one-touch function Sony feature called BRAVIA Theatre Sync. This feature allows the access and control multiple tasks and system operations with one button ease. BRAVIA Sync is now being introduced as the name for a new family of control features that not only includes BRAVIA Theatre Sync, but will now include BRAVIA Sync. This feature allows the user to control a CEC-enabled camcorder connected to a BRAVIA HDTV via an HDMI cable by using the HDTV’s remote control and an on-screen display that shows camcorder transport functions.

| Developed in consultation with the Sony Pictures Entertainment movie studio, most 2008 Sony BRAVIA LCD HDTVs feature our optimized Theater Mode. Selecting the THEATER mode on the BRAVIA HDTV remote automatically adjusts a number of key elements that have an important impact on reproducing movies better. Skin tones and lighting are seen as natural without over-enhancing color and contrast. The picture is fine-tuned for a dark viewing environment just like the cinema and optimized for LCD display technology. Even the right amount of film grain is included. All of this helps preserve the mood and detail so you enjoy the cinema experience that you go to the theater to see, right in the comfort of your home. Optimized Theater Mode is another great example of Sony HDNA in action. We not only create the exciting movies that you see at the cinema but also enhance the home viewing experience to recreate it as only Sony can. (Found on most Sony BRAVIA LCD HDTVs.) Note: Optimized "Theater Mode" was developed in consultation Columbia Pictures, a Sony Pictures Entertainment company. Go back to list of all features. |
TruSurround is a patented SRS technology that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multichannel content over two speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience through any two-speaker playback system, including internal television speakers and headphones. It is fully compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels. High-quality virtual surround sound can be experienced with just the two hidden, downward-firing side-mounted 2.2-channel dome speakers built into the TV.  | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience.

Incrediably sharp picture. Smelly!
Heh, first time I have used smelly in a review, but this set DOES run warm like another poster said. For the first week, this made the set have a high temperature electronic type smell in my bedroom (with door closed). Gone in a week tho.
With a 1080P source (Blu-Ray), the picture cannot get any sharper. This high resolution for a 32" is probably overkill but DANG its good! There is just a ton of pixels. Upscaled 1080P DVD look just about as good as high def because of the set's smaller size. Standard TV signal looks fine (again in comparison to my larger Sony XBR 40").
Controls are good and simple to understand and operate. First time I have had extra HDMI slots. Sound is very good though the built in speakers but needs more bass (as does all my LCD TV speakers). Has a lot of extras that I have yet to fool with or notice. Motionflow? DMeX?
The set is very handsome with a surprising gap between the bottom of the TV and the top of the speaker bar. Very good base keeps the set solid on the table.
A winner!
Great display for bedroom applications!
Normally I wait a few months before giving any sort of review on high ticket items such as this telvision simply to give time for issues, if any, to surface.(See my review of the KDL-52XBR4). But in this instance I already know I have a great piece of hardware and feel no reservations about writing so early on.
I have had this television for about three weeks now (purchased online via SonyStyle) and I love it. I bought the XBR model simply becuase it harbors most of the same things my larger KLD-52XBR4 model does. Namely, native 1980x1080p resolution, Bravia 2 engine, a myriad of controls for in depth picture calibration, numerous HDMI unputs, etc.
Initial setup is a snap, as the television asks simple questions with regards to language and region, what type of signals it can expect to receive, and what other components, if any, should it expect to be connected to. Once set up the tv works like any other. SD programming looks pretty good since it's a smaller panel, and HD programming shines given its native 1080p resolution. Since I purchased this for the bedroom I only have a Sony upscaling DVD player conected to it, but I am utilizing the Bravia Sync feature and I love it. All I have to do is hit a button on my remote, select the device I want to use, and everything I need for that device turns on. This translates into not having to get out of bed. The speakers are great for a set this size regardless of the output setting you choose.
As far as cons, I don't really have any to list. After reading some of the other reviews I can't verify the 'smelly' review, as this tv doesn't run hot for me at all. I have it mounted on my bedroom wall, so it's possible that the placement of the tv with regards to surrounding items/cabinets/armoirs might make a difference. Also, please note that contrary to what the features checklist (above) states, this television does in fact have Sony's XROSS Media Bar (3D on-screen feature navigation). I don't know why it states otherwise, but it leads me to think that maybe the checklist was released prior to Sony's new line of smaller tv's for 2008.
All in all, this television is great and works perfectly as a bedroom set. It saves tons of space when mounted to the wall and has plenty of connection options for any device you might want to plug in. The remote is nice, although I wish it had a backlight feature like the one for my XBR52 does, which makes for easy navigation in low-light situations.
I agree that while this television is priced higher than other telvisions in its size class, it is completely worth it for all the options it comes with. Some might argue that 720p for a panel this size is fine, but once you have 1080p it's hard to go back, and this is the only television currently offering a native 1080p resolution for its size. Recommended!
Pricey for a 32 inch but great picture
We use this in our kitchen/dining area to replace a 20inch sdtv. It is hooked up to a Charter cable HD box which provides a 1080i signal. The HD picture is fabulous and the regular digital pictures are also quite good. Rather then buy a BluRay player we decided to go cheap ($72) and purchased a Sony DVP-NS700H/B 1080p Upscaling DVD Player to play DVD movies. According to the display the movies are being upscaled to 1080P. Other than adjusting the picture: vivid,standard,cinema,custom or trying the different "wide" settings, we have not yet tried any other adjustments. The TV is pricey for a 32inch model but you get a great picture and many other features not standard on older 32 inch models. This is my first online review of an electronics product and I must say that I have benefited greatly from reviews written by others prior to buying electronics products online.
