Mediocre performance from a quality name2008-08-18
The M-Series 26" Sony Bravia has a nice looking HD picture but standard definition (SD) pictures are horrible and sound quality is poor. Once all the picture parameters are set for HD, these programs have great detail and resolution. Unfortunately, SD pictures are very soft, color rendition is poor and contrast is poor. Sound quality is tinny and sorely lacking in bass information.

I bought this set beacuse of years of enjoyment with my 25" XBR from the late 1980's that still produces a great looking picture and has never seen the inside of a repair shop. But this M-series Bravia is a big disappointment given that some channels I enjoy are not currently offered in HD. That will change in time, but I thought any Sony product, even an entry level model, would be of better quality than this unit.
Great TV2008-08-15
This is a great TV. Works great. Easy to set up. Just what I needed.
REALLY LIKE THIS TV2008-08-15
While a 26" screen may not sound impressive, it certainly seems a lot bigger in the living room. What's more, it leaves in the dust any analog TV of a similar screen size.

I like its sharp picture, vibrant colors, the design, and various ways it can display the picture and sound. It has a lot of other features (PIP is one) that I haven't quite gotten around to using yet.

The only thing I could wish for is for it to respond quicker when I turn it on and change channels.

All in all, though, I'm very happy with this TV.
Good, Low End TV2008-08-07
From my experiance, Sony is the only brand TV to buy. I am satified with the quality of the picture and the viewing angle. My only gripe is that it doesn't accept discrete codes to change inputs, which means I ending up not using the tuner on the TV and had to run everyhing through one S-Video cable from my Entertainment System. My good old VCR is the tuner for this TV. There are way too many inputs for the remote to correctly select the right one in a timely manner. If there is an "S" version out by the time you read this review, I would recommed going up a notch!
Buggy HDMI with Comcast HD DVR2008-07-18
I like the picture but I don't think the bugs are worked out of this one yet. I can't use HDMI to connect to my Comcast Motorola HD DVR box without a huge popping sound when changing channels. Component works fine, but what's the point of having HDMI if it's glitchy? Also, the picture is noticeably better with HDMI.

Comcast swapped boxes and I still had the problem. I sent it to a Sony repair center and they couldn't figure out what was wrong as the HDMI checked out o.k. at the shop. The repair tech returned the TV to me and brough along a a 19" Samsung to hook up to the Mot box via HDMI as a test. The Samsung changed channels quicker and without any popping sounds. Sony is stumped and I'm tired with dealing with it.

Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me? Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers.
