5.0 out of 5 stars What a stunner !!, 29 April 2007
By 
migo1759 (Hertfordshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony KDL32V2500 - 32" Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview - Black (Electronics)
Had this TV for 2 weeks now and I still can't believe just how fantastic this set is. It was so easy to set up - took max 5 mins, with a very easy to use on-screen guide. It tuned itself to all the available digital and analogue stations. I receive terrestrial digital via Freeview, using a 30 year old aerial in my loft and the picture is superb.
The set itself is well built and is aesthetically well designed.
I also treated myself to the Sony 160Gb HDD DVD and connected them with just the one HDMI cable. So simple and stunning results.
Couldn't be happier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sony KDL32V2500 - 32" Widescreen Bravia, 21 July 2007
This review is from: Sony KDL32V2500 - 32" Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview - Black (Electronics)
I make no apologies to being brand-loyal to Sony. I love their products and this tv is no exception. I've actually owned this tv since it first came out 18months ago and payed considerably more than is advertised by Amazon. This tv is the business and you'll find no better, I don't think, for the price (my next choice would be the Samsung with the glossy black finish). I think there has been some minor cosmetic changes but it's the same tv I bought last year. Picture quality on the built in freeview is very good. I've also seen this tv with a HD picture and it was lovely, vibrant and crisp.
The only negative is only one HDMI input. Sony must have known the HD and HDMI was the future, but why only 1 socket (hid behind a removable panel) - or at least it was then. However, that may have been one of the changes since I bought mine. If you're going to by an LCD in this price range buy Sony. If you're going to buy a Sony make sure it's a KDL-V model.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great picture and easy to set up., 30 Oct 2007
By 
This review is from: Sony KDL32V2500 - 32" Widescreen Bravia HD Ready LCD TV - With Freeview - Black (Electronics)

I've had this TV for just one week. I ordered it on a Thursday and it arrived the very next day. Thank you Amazon!!

Briefly, the TV settings are set for viewing in a showroom, so brightness and contrast are on maximum.

I was really shocked by how awful it looked when I first switched it on - thankfully, all it needed was a huge tweak of the settings.

If anyone wants to improve the picture quality as an immediate 'quick fix', I've set mine like this:

FIRST: Select 'Tools' on the remote control, and choose Power Saving. Next, make sure it is set to 'low' or else you won't be able to adjust
the backlight (crucial for making the black parts look 'black')

NEXT: Go to 'Menu' and scroll up to 'Settings' and select. This puts you in 'Picture Mode'. From there, try the following adjustments. This is only intended as a quick fix while you work out the menus for yourself.

Backlight - Minimum

Contrast - 80

Brightness - 40

Colour - 40

Colour temperature - Cool

Sharpness - 7

Noise reduction - Off

Also, once you're in this menu, take a look at the top where it says: "Target Inputs" - you'll see an option for 'Viewing Only' and in the dropdown menu the other option is 'All'.

Don't select 'All'. The beauty of selecting 'viewing only' is that once you get the picture as you want it, it will be 'set' for that particular input.

When you put a DVD or tape in, you'll need to choose your picture settings for that input - and once again they'll be saved.

If you select 'All' - it means the picture settings you used for the TV input will be applied to every other input - and as you'll see, one picture setting doesn't suit each input. Once you've adjusted the picture settings - you won't have to do it again.

The only reason I knocked one star off is because my old 28" Sony Trinitron had a much fuller sound. The Bravia has smaller speakers and sound quite tinny compared to the old TV. There are sound settings to play around with though, and overall, it's good enough and the fantastic picture is well worth such a minor niggle.

One other thing, I bought the Thor Scart to Scart 1.5m from Amazon as well for £17.99. It really makes a difference to the colour reproduction and 'ghosting' which can occur with inferior cables. I have to say the picture was good without the Thor lead, but I wanted to get the best out of the TV and thought £17.99 wasn't a bad price to pay for the improvement it's made.
