Excellent Product 
2008-05-23
We bought this product after a couple of weeks of research and thinking. We needed a TV for our niche in the family room. Since we already have a niche, several recommended we buy a DLP so you'll get a bigger screen TV for the same or lower price. When I went to the best buys and the like, I found that the DLP looks good if you are right in front but it does not have a good viewing angle. I loved the look of plasma TVs but again since I wanted it in my family room, I was looking for something brighter. I loved all the SONY's in the stores. Amazon had a great deal on this TV, no taxes, free white glove delivery. I saved nearly $600. I am extremely happy with the HD channels and brightness of this TV in the family room. The only con is for some channels where there is a lot of speed in the picture the TV acts like its catching up. I was told the XBR with 120 Hertz is better in this regard. Overall, I am very pleased with the product and with Amazon. In the future I will not buy any product without checking on Amazon.
WOW!!

I have a few LCD TV's and this one blows me away! I spent quite a long time reviewing different LCD units from different magazines, companies, and online personal reviews, and I found that besides the top Sony Bravia, this one is by far my best purchase I have had in a long time!
Make sure you get yourself a set of good Monster HD cables
Really Nice !! 2008-04-30
I'll describe the TV and the delivery in two separate paragraphs. The rating I have given is for the TV only.
The Sony 46W3000 lives up to every expectation. The colors and resolution are spectacular. I haven't found a flaw of any kind (I used to design television monitors for warbirds). Stated simply its a really nice piece. No buyer regrets whatsoever.
The 'White Glove' delivery was another matter. The delivery company called day before to indicate the set would be delivered between 12-5pm. So as the drill goes you rearrange your life and wait hoping the delivery will be sooner not later. I waited and waited. finally about 4:30p I received a call indicating that the delivery was running late. I had a concert to attend at 7p so the delivery was now becoming awkward. Truck showed up at 6:30p. Driver had a sprained ankle and was on a cane, had no helper. Was barely able to help carry in the set. Had my wife been home alone there would have been no way to bring the set in. A jack strap in the truck used to hold the box in place had cut clear through the cardboard box. Fortunately, no visible damage to the contents. Driver and I unpacked the box and quickly tested the set with a portable dvd player. I thanked the driver and went to the concert. Arrived late got poor seating. From my experience.. Amazon needs to rethink their 'White Glove' Delivery
Perfect for all HD Media 2008-04-13
The Sony KDL 46W3000 is perfection when watching true HD programming or Blu-Ray disks. Installation is simple and set up is flawless. Calibration is a bit more difficult (unless you pay for professional calibration). Standard picture mode works well for most all programming. SD programming looks best if the wide mode is left at normal. Stretching SD programming is too distorting for my taste. Though not a huge sports watcher, what football, baseball, hockey, soccer and golf the hubby and I have viewed as looked marvelous on this HDTV. We've seen very minimal motion blur (mostly on SD DVD close-up moving head shots), no judder, no jaggies, no TBE. We watch the 46W3000 anywhere from 2 feet to 8 feet away. As long as the programming is HD, there is no concern on artifact or pixelation. SD programming is best viewed from 6-8 feet away on. All in all, the Sony KDL 46W3000 is an amazing HDTV and just perfect for HD/Blu-Ray.
Very impressed with TV and purchase at Amazon 2008-04-07
Researched 46" TV's online and in stores and found the Sony Bravia 46" W3000 series had the best features and picture for the price. Even over higher priced TV's, the picture is awesome. Super sharp picture, true black colors, no blur and great sound. We use this in a very bright room with lots of windows and have no problem with glare.
Purchased from Amazon and even with free shipping had the TV in two days delivered into the living room.

The 46-inch Bravia W Series LCD incorporate all of Sony's latest technologies including HDMI v1.3 features such as x.v.Color and Deep Color. Full HD 1080 means 1920x1080 pixels and 1080p video inputs. BRAVIA Engine PRO with Digital Reality Creation(TM) upconverts all interlaced and progressive video signals including HD signals directly to 1080p for amazing detail and sharpness. Achieving smoother, natural motion reproduction starts with the right performance characteristics such as the ultra fast panel response times. Sony's Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) builds on contrast ratio performance of 1800:1 Contrast Ratio. The Contrast Ratio of up to 1800:1 is achieved by using real-time image processing to adjust the contrast along with optimizing backlight levels. Blu-ray movies are filmed at 24 frames per second (fps) and prime time TV programs are video taped at 24p.

Awesome 2008-03-17
Bought this product based on reviews provided by others and high rating in Consumer Reports. Amazon had best price and home delivery went smoothly. Connected to Verizon Fios, but more HD content needed because the television can't realize its full potential unless being fed the highest grade signal. Hoping the investment in Sony and brand's reputation for quality was a wise one.
Great TV at a Great price! 2008-03-07
This is a really great deal on this TV. The Amazon white glove delivery is the best there is. The guys that delivered it were also great. The box was in perfect condition, as if I had picked it up myself from the store. The price was $325.00 cheaper then I could have got it for on sale at any store in my area. The picture is the best there is, hands down. The viewing angle is also the best I have found for an LCD, it's great from all angles.
Excellent 2008-02-23
Bought the 46" Sony as an open box item at Circuit City last month. Picture and features are excellent. I thought it would be hard to beat my Samsung DLP, but it is considerably better. 1080i vs 720 helps. Also bought a Toshiba HD DVD Player and the picture is 1080P and it is the best I have seen. Sony was one of few that had a flat black bezel instead of the glossy black. Only negative is Sony's prices.
happy 2008-02-13
Arrived on time. Good customer service. Product has several features which we are still learning to use. Picture quality amazing!
