Product Description
Manufacturer's Descritpion
Changing the way you experience television
BRAVIA is synonymous with outstanding quality of colour and clarity of detail: a picture so good it enhances the viewing experience, no matter what you like to watch.
BRAVIA is synonymous with outstanding quality of colour and clarity of detail: a picture so good it enhances the viewing experience, no matter what you like to watch.
The BRAVIA range of LCD, SXRD and Home Cinema Projectors feature unique Sony picture enhancement technologies giving you high contrast, incredible detail, smooth reproduction of fast-moving images and exceptional colour gradation for a true High Definition experience.
High performance LCD panel Advanced Contrast Enhancer
Our unique Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) technology helps boost contrast ratio for incredible depth, richness and picture detail, with blacks that are truly black.
Super-fast response time
Eight millisecond response time means fast-moving images such as sports or action sequences remain pin sharp, without any motion blur. Ultra-wide viewing angle
178° viewing angle means you can experience BRAVIA LCD from almost any angle and there is no reduction in the colour, contrast and brightness of the image.
Ergonomic non-reflective frame
BRAVIA LCD televisions have a non-reflective frame to counteract the reflection that puts a strain on your eyes, especially if you are watching in artificial light.
10-bit panel for supremely smooth colour gradation
The new D 32" - 46" BRAVIA televisions feature state-of-the-art 10-bit Sony LCD panel technology that surpasses the achievements of conventional 8-bit panels to set a new standard for smooth and natural colour gradation. Sony LCD panels already deliver enhanced 8000:1 contrast and a 178° viewing angle. When combined with the Sony-unique Wide Colour Gamut backlight (WCG-CCFL), our new 10-bit panel now reproduces remarkable gradation across a 30% wider colour spectrum.
This gives your picture a beautifully natural quality, with incredibly smooth transitions between dark and light shades of colour.
Motionflow +100Hz technology for our smoothest ever fast-moving sports pictures
To enhance the excitement of watching sports on your BRAVIA, the new D 32" - 46" Series features amazing Sony-unique Motionflow +100Hz technology. Motionflow +100Hz actually creates artificial pictures which it inserts into fast-moving sequences to effectively double the number of pictures, or frames, that make up the sequence.
This enables the D Series BRAVIA to display even the fastest sports scene with total precision and smoothness. Some alternative technologies also insert frames, but the results are inferior to Motionflow +100Hz.
Three HDMI ports for the new High Definition world
HDMI™ connectivity will transform your BRAVIA, placing your television at the heart of the new, superior High Definition home entertainment experience. HDMI enables you to connect any High Definition device to your television with just one high-capacity cable, and with no loss of HD audio or video quality.
Practical side port for portable HD devices
The HDMI port on the side of some BRAVIA models lets you quickly connect and disconnect portable HD devices, without moving the television to access the ports on the back.
Two rear HDMI ports for permanently connected devices
The back of your BRAVIA provides enough ports for connecting next-generation High Definition equipment like a Sony Blu-ray Disc™ player and your hi fi system.
S-Force Front Surround
For a unique surround experience without additional speakers.
The new BRAVIA D 32" - 46" televisions feature a high-end virtual surroundsound technology that goes a step further than Virtual Dolby® Surround andTruSurround XT®.
S-Force Front Surround has broken new ground in the field of sound virtualisation to deliver a genuine surround sound effect using just the two internal speakers in your television.
S-Force Front Surround is available exclusively in BRAVIA televisions and other high-end Sony audio and home video products.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Absolutely superb!,
By Bristol Mark (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony KDL32D3000 - 32'' Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview (Electronics)
I am very very very picky about AV equipment (3 very's) so it was after much research and deliberation that I finally settled on this TV. I have to say I am *totally* delighted with it - its a real belter.
The colours are rich and vibrant - perhaps too rich and vibrant unless you turn off the expanded colour gamut that is enabled by default. The picture has bags of detail and the black levels are really excellent, right up there with good plasmas. I would say it gives my Panasonic plasma a damned good run for its money in this respect, which for an LCD TV is quite amazing. The electronic wizzardry does and incredible job at upscaling and enhancing SD pictures and fast moving sports channels pose no problems at all with no motion judder, smearing or other nasties. I found the 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection to be faultless with both NTSC or PAL DVD's exhibiting a very film-like appearance, especially with the Theater mode enabled. Although I suppose no-one will need to test this, the 3D comb filter is just off-the-scale good. If you feed the TV a composite video signal (I can't see many people would) the processing is so good, its almost indistinguishable for RGB with no visible dot-crawl. Amazing. Of course the set really comes into its own with HD with images that have an incredible WOW factor. I really can't praise this TV enough. My only two gripes (and they are very minor) is that some of the more advance picture settings are quite deep in the menu hierarchy, making initial set up and picture fine tuning slightly cumbersome. (Of course it doesn't matter after you have set it up, because you don't need to use those adjustments again). The other thing is that *perhaps* the light sensor is a bit over-zealous, dimming the picture maybe just a bit more than I prefer if you switch off all the lights. That very much a personal thing though, I think. And you can always switch the light sensor off if you want to. I give this TV a wholehearted 5 stars. Incidentally, Amazon's service and price was very good. Not the lowest price around, but next day delivery (delivered Saturday morning) for peanuts extra, so overall a very good deal.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Don't hesitate, just buy it,
By Lucky Del (North Lanarkshire, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony KDL32D3000 - 32'' Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview (Electronics)
I felt compelled to write a brief review of this TV as all the previous reviews gave me the additional confidence in buying this TV.
I read review after review both online and in magazines over which LCD TV would be best to buy between the £500 / £800 mark. Initially I had decided that the Panasonic 32LXD70 or 32LXD700 would have been my choice but the offer of a free 3 year guarantee on the Amazon website swayed my decision toward the Sony for £659.99, now going for £10 cheaper! Most of my other equipment is Sony anyway and I've never had any problems with the brand before and it too was also getting excellent reviews just the Panasonics. I've connected my Sky+ (Thomson) box via the RGB Scart connector on the rear of the TV, mucked around with the numerous on screen settings and the picture quality is excellent. I have a very good signal going into m my Sky box, so that is bound to help a lot! Absolutely no motion problems at all and that's with the motion enhancer turned off. (This was one of my concerns when reviewing LCD TV's!) I've also connected a Playstation 3 via one of the 3 HDMI connectors to try out Hi-definition gaming. The smiles on my children's faces said it all when I loaded the first demo game of Ratchet and Clank which I had displaying at 720p. Astounding picture quality, absolutely crystal clear. Colours are fabulous. No comparison to my old 28" CRT TV. (And I thought the picture quality on that TV through the RGB connector was great?) The HDMI cable was only a cheap £10 cable, so I don't know if much dearer cables would really be worth buying. I just wish I had a Sky HD box now to compliment this fantastic piece of equipment. Connectivity is brilliant and I would thoroughly recommend this TV to anyone who is considering it, even though I've only had it now for less than one day. Don't look around any further, just buy it!, I'm well pleased.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent TV, poor setup out of the box!,
By A "cabbagepatchkid" (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony KDL32D3000 - 32'' Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview (Electronics)
I've been debating getting an LCD TV for ages. I've been idly looking in electrical stores for a while and the displayed pictures in these stores are usually really bad, over bright, over coloured, grainy etc. Well, I can confirm it is the fault of the people setting them up, not the TV itself!
This SONY TV arrived today and out of the box the picture was awful! All over coloured and horrid to watch. About half an hour of fettling gets it sorted though. The TV does run at 100HZ, but this option needs to be turned on manually to eliminate ghosting on motion pictures. I also knocked the colour and contrast down and the brightness up. You also get a feature including an automatic light sensor which adjusts the screen brightness as the light in the room goes up or down. I thought the picture was really poor in a well lit room, until I turned this option off and the TV picture came alive. The stock settings are a joke on sound as well. Default is stereo, but the TV is able to do a front surround sound setting, why not have this on as standard?! Overall an excellent television, very competitive pricing too. This TV in John Lewis is £899 at the moment(with a 5 year guarantee to be fair) Amazon is £649 (when I bought it) Also, at the moment, Sony give a free one year accidental damage insurance and 3 year guarantee for free (Before the end of November 2007) Well worth a buy, but remember that setting it up takes a fair bit of fiddling, hence 4 stars, not 5!
