Amazon.com Product Description

The sleekly styled, silver 46-inch Sony Bravia KDL46S2000 is packed with the latest high-performance video features, including a wide viewing angle, blazing fast 8ms response time (great for sports and action movies), and a wide color gamut backlight that provides more natural skin tones and highly accurate overall color reproduction. It also offers integrated HDTV capabilities (with an integrated ATSC tuner), digital HDMI video connectivity, and a bottom speaker design that helps save space. The thin profile of this Bravia TV accommodates VESA compliant mounting systems (separately available). The removable pedestal swivels 30 degrees left and right and also tilts forward 3 degrees and backward 8 degrees for additional placement flexibility.

Like other TVs in the Bravia line, the KDL46S2000 uses Sony's Wide Color Cold Compact Fluorescent Light (WCG-CCFL) to display a color gamut almost 30 percent larger than a conventional CCFL display, which results in deeper reds, more vivid greens, and cleaner blues. It also offers a high response time (also referred to as refresh rate) of 8 milliseconds (ms), which is able to clearly portray fast-moving images across the screen with well-defined edges and without ghosting (streaking or shadowing). The set's Light Sensor feature intelligently adjusts the screen brightness to match the ambient light in a room, ensuring a comfortable viewing experience.

It also features the latest in Sony's unique S-PVA (Super Patterned Vertical Alignment) LCD panel technology, which divides each sub-pixel into two segments per color for a more refined consistency in colors, contrast, and brightness at wide viewing angles. This seventh generation Sony LCD panel was specially crafted at Sony's plant and produced from one of the world's biggest mother glass (a huge sheet of glass that can be divided to create multiple LCD panels).

The KDL46S2000 has a 1366 x 768-pixel resolution, 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, 178-degree viewing angle, and 1300:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) The Cinemotion 3:2 pulldown cinema video processing detects and compensates film--which is shot at 24 frames per second (fps) compared with video's 30 fps rate--to video for a smooth theaterlike experience at home. The 3D digital comb filter offers 10-bit signal processing that renders superb gradation of grays, resulting in superior picture detail.

Other convenience features include:

It pumps out 20 watts of audio power via its integrated bottom-aligned stereo speakers (10 watts per channel). It has a built-in Dolby Digital decoder (for connecting to a surround sound home theater receiver) and it can also produce SRS TruSurround XT virtual 5.1-channel surround sound from its two speakers. This set offers the following connection options:

Tech Talk
HDMI is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link any audio/video source (such as a set-top box, DVD player, or AV receiver) with your TV--all over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced or high definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It supports all ATSC formats--standard (SDTV), enhanced (EDTV), and high (HDTV).

Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

TruSurround XT audio adds three new audio enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience.

And in case you were wondering, BRAVIA is short for "Best Resolution Audio Visual Integrated Architecture."

What's in the Box
46-inch Bravia LCD television, tabletop stand, remote control (with batteries), coaxial cable, HD15-to-HD15 cable, printed operating instructions

Warranty
1 year for parts and labor; in-home diagnostic warranty service for one year (for LCD TVs from the Bravia S-Series measuring over 30 inches)

4 out of 5 stars Good but can be better.......2007-03-10

After watching and playing with this TV for around 6 months, I can say I'm satified with my purchase. However, I think the black level is not as deep as I would like and the response time of fast action can be impove as well. Granted, 6 months is a long time for technology advancement so the newer model might have already resolved the black level and the response time issue.

3 out of 5 stars in 2 years will need a new optical engine.......2007-03-04

I have a sony lcd tv and after 2 years the optical engine went. Luckily I bought the warantee because this part is $1100 including installation. According to our repair facility this part breaks alot. The life of the optical engine is about 2 years tops. Also the optical engine gets backordered alot from sony sometimes for months. I only had to wait a couple of weeks.

I loved this tv until it broke and had to be without it for weeks waiting for the backordered part.

I love this tv once it was returned. I am glad my warantee is good thru 2009 so that when the optical engine goes in 2 more years I will get another new one.

My advise BUY A WARANTEE

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic HD.......2007-02-24

I first saw the KDL462000 at Best Buy and went directly to Amazon to purchase... what a great TV and an even better Amazon experience. First, Amazon beat their estimate as to delivery time (even with SuperSaver) and the delivery folks took it into the house, unpacked and set it on the stand. It has had an excellent picture since that time. I still see competitive brands in Best Buy, Costco, Circuit City... and none has the picture that this has. Couldn't be happier. Unless you are viewing a 46"'er from 6 ft in, you're never going to notice the difference between the 720 and the 1080. Highly recommend.

4 out of 5 stars Good but not great.......2007-02-12

Good picture - but not great for the money. Especially in 480i mode. It does have a lot of connection options which is a plus. Overall not a bad TV but I expected more from Sony. Basic but functional remote - I replaced it with a Logitech Harmony 880 - much better.
If someone offers you one for free - take it - otherwise shop around. There are better and cheaper TVs.

5 out of 5 stars Sony 46" Bravia TV.......2007-01-15

I am very pleased with this t.v. and the fast delivery service and fine business practice but in checking after the fact, I found that I could have purchased this item locally for the same price and saved all the chipping charges. That is the only thing I am not happy about. I thought that this would be a better price than a brick front store.
