Question: How is the sound?  I want a set that has good sound like the Sony Bravia 32" that I have in another room.
Document: I bought this TV because mother needed my very nice 32" Sony. When I hooked up my $99 Bose to it, the sound was great, but not to this 40". It sounds like sound is coming through a tunnel or something. I tried another type cord, but no improvement. Also, basic means only 2 HDMI's and less buttons on the right side. I wish I had checked it out first at the store. I did have to get used to the larger screen and glad I did not buy bigger than 40".
The menu is very simple and easy to navigate through. Bravia sync comes in handy when you pair it with another Sony compatible product like a soundbar - which I obviously did. HDMI ARC is very useful since there are only 2 HDMI inputs on the TV. It allows me to connect my TV to my soundbar, and from there I connect the Xbox and other devices to my soundbar.Overall, very impressed with the TV so far. Good job Sony.
I got this TV on Feb 23 from Costco, now after using for about one month I say this is my Best TV. I had Samsung 40E5050 which too I liked very much. But there was probably some technical issue....that would sometimes produce spark like sound,so I returned that TV. The Costco in my place didn't have that Samsung TV anymore. Since Samsung was very good for me as per picture and sound and price....I couldn't decide which to buy now. Then I saw this Sony Bravia 40R450A (2013model) for unbelievable price.
After pondering over various choices I narrowed down to this TV and as always Sony did not disappoint with this product. This is definitley one of the best Sony TV at a lower price. The best part of the TV is the picture quality. The HD shows and movies are so crystal clear and definitley enhances the movie watching expereince. Another important point to note is the sound quality. I have placed this TV in a relatively small living room and I am blown with the quality of the sound this TV produces without any external amplifiers etc.
This television is a massive disappointment. It failed after less than 5 months. In the last six weeks they have sent parts twice and failed to correct the problem. Now they want to send us a "refurbished" TV. I've bought many Sony products over the years, but will never buy another one. I pray you never need to get involved with their customer "service" organization. The amount of persistence and patience it takes to get Sony to honor their warranty obligations is ridiculous.Update - as of 11/29 we finally did get a new set from Sony.
I give this a 5 star all the way and its definitely a tv I will keep for minimum 7 years. I havent even cranked the sound up past 30 yet because its just so loud by that point already. If you want another Sony product that doesnt break or give you problems this is the tv guys
Just can't go wrong with SONY Bravia. We wanted a smaller LED TV for a small room and we wanted the best possible picture but didn't want 3D. This TV is perfect for the kids' media room where they can watch movies and play video games. We were debating between the 60Hz and 120Hz and honestly, we just don't need 120Hz for our viewing needs.
Nice TV with a slim profile, fits perfectly in my living room. Picture quality is very good at this price. Sound is a bit hollow compared to my sound bar. Overall, I like this TV as it fits my needs well. The only thing I don't like is the TV sits too low on the base, so a sound bar kept in front of it would block a little bit of the screen at the bottom.
THIS IS NUTS!. I have owned the set for over 3 months and have primarily used it for cable and watching many standard dvd films with a different dvd player using the tv's composite input and everything has acted normally (sound is fairly mediocre though). I recently started purchasing more BLU - Ray discs and have to go through this &#34;ordeal&#34; with many of them (even though this same player acts normal with an older bravia). So i am therefore thinking it is something to do with this newest Sony tv.
It's crisp and clear, the contrast and the colors just pop out, and the level of detail is astounding. Plus the sound was good as well. The design is nice, sleek and slim (but not quiet as slim as other models). It has 2 HDMI inputs; so it's good for when you want more then one connection going on simultaneously. Whether you like to play video games or watch Blu rays(like me),this TV will serve those purposes. One last thing before I forget, Amazon's service was great.
Answer: It's pretty loud but of course like any tv, they have generic paper cone speakers so you're not going to get the best sound. I don't go past 20 one the volume and that's about the quarter way of the volume bar so I'm sure it's pretty loud.
