 Impressive HDTV - Sony does it again August 24, 2007

Just bought the KDS-55A3000 at Best Buy a few days ago. I bought the Sony Blu-ray BDP-S300 a few months ago and loved the great sound and picture but I did not have full HD. So after much research I settled on the KDS-55A3000 to replace my older Sony 53". My first Blu-ray disk I tried with the KDS-55A3000 was Casino Royale. I sat at the edge of my seat through the whole thing. The level of color clarity and contrast is stunning. The action was very smooth and no detectable jitter of the frame was seen. The off air tuner found all my digital channels in the area.The screen geometry is consistent and the blacks are a true black. One thing I noticed after setting up the tv is that there is a fan in the back " It was so quiet, I did not hear it but saw the light from the projector and noticed the fan" so ventilation is going to be important. If you have a bright room, this could also be an issue. The picture does fade a bit in a brightly lit room. The software is well thought out and has more features that you will ever need. Great set-buy it!
Simply Amazing. Exceeds all of my expectations August 13, 2007

First off, I've been a fan of Mitsubishi's in years past, never really gave Sony much thought, due to their cost vs. lack of features, in my opinion.
Well, in this case, giving this TV a shot was the best choice I've made TV wise in my life. The color on the set is AMAZING, with the native 1080p/24 and 120HZ motion, it is like you're shooting the movie yourself.
There are a total of 6 1080P inputs, including Component and PC-IN, which is rare for a TV of this price.
All in all, this is the first TV that I have legitimately no complaints with. I've only had the TV for about 1.5 days, but usually by then in TV's I've had prior, I'd already found something I didn't like about it, that I would simply put up with. This is the first TV that I can't find anything that I don't like about it.
Time will be the true test, but so far this is definitely a winner and I can't imagine finding anything with a better picture in this price range.
Enjoy!

I work in the broadcast/post production industry and see HD Video every day on high quality studio displays that are designed to accurately reproduce color and show imperfections and detail in signals.
When I started looking at displays for my own basement I looked for accurate color, clarity in motion for sports, a theater mode to make DVD movies look and feel like they do in the theater.
I looked at LCD, Plasma and Projection TV in my quest for a new TV. The Sony A series was a clear winner as it delivers and excellent picture, 120hz image processing and plenty of inputs.
No matter which size you choose, this series is a winner.
WOW! Best tv I have ever purchased!!!!!!!!!! December 28, 2007

The Sony SCRD 55A3000 is perfect right out of the box! I almost bought a Bravia LCD, but this tv cost half as much and on HD content, it's hard to tell them apart. The delivery was with Eagle, not one problem, they carried it in and waited untill I hooked it up and turned it on. I really was leary of ordering online and getting delivered a beat-up box with damaged goods, but that was certainly not the case. I saved $540.00 with amazon. Best deal around!!!!
sony motionflow 120htz should be the new standard!! January 3, 2008

this tv is awesome!!! what more is there to say. from the moment i saw the picture on it @ a local retailer i knew right away this was to be my new tv. a few weeks later BAM there it was in my living room. 55" of pure zen!! there is nothing bad to say about this screen...the picture is insane, sony did great with this motionflow 120 htz technology. other manufacturers claim to have the same 120 htz technology, but none, i repeat none, can produce the type of image quality that this screen can, trust me i looked. they may be able to clean up the jitter effect of other screens, but none reproduce the image. movies seem to pop out @ you. i have both blu-ray(ps3) and hd dvd(xbox 360) players(they're the same as far as i'm concerned) and all i can say is WOW! whether movies or games, they all look great! not to metion directv hd. i'm a home theater installer and whenever i demo this out to my customers they get out the credit cards and say "i want one!" sony has really outdone themselves with this one. i'm already saving up for the flat panel kdl-52xbr5 for my gameroom, and a 40" for my bedroom. it's the flat panel versions of the same screen. i highly recommend this to anyone looking for there next tv. believe me and all the others that have already purchased this - look no further than these sony screens! you'd be foolish to. you won't be disappointed.
