Sony may produce a good product in most cases but when they don’t, in the case of the KDF55WF655, Which we purchased several years ago and have had nothing but problems with, they do NOT try and FAIRLY rectify the situation with their consumers and are ARROGANT in their attitudes. We were offered a certain replacement model at a discount price for a two week period and when we reluctantly decided to replace the old set with one of the newer models offered we were told it was no longer avaialble.

Sony’s customer serive is the PITS! they do not give a darn about their consumers and the company representatives exude a pompus arrogant attitude when dealing with them.

NOT ANOTHER SONY PRODUCT WILL BE BROUGHT INTO OUR HOUSEHOLD AFTER THE WAY WE WERE TREATED BY NUMEROUS DEPARTMENT MEMBERS OF SONY FOR OVER SIX MONTHS WHILE TRYING TO RESOLVE OUR ISSUE!

Okay first off they are totally wrong about the W5100 series TV. I just bought it and it’s 100,000 dynamic contrast so it doesn’t even compare to the W4100’s 30,000 ratio. Also the 5100 has the Bravia 3 engine and the 4100 has the Bravia 1…buy the W5100 it’s worth it for the price!

Over at TVLampsnbulbs, we’re guessing the 52XBR9 will be $3,499. It will be interesting to see how Sony prices these televisions since they’ve lost the #2 spot to Vizio.

There aren’t many people in the $3,000+ market but I guess anything is possible.

Sony builds the best TVs PERIOD. Vizio is ok, but for the blue collar crowd.
You need to refine your standard bucko.

It appears that in the 2009 series, the XMB user interface is only accessible with the W5100 and Z5100, while in the 2008 series, the V4100 had XMB.

Although I have read here about the discontinuation of the KDL52XBR6, I do not see much price movement from Sony on this model. Why is this?

I’m work in Sears of Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. The price of a 40W4100 is $865.

I have in the store a UN46B7000 SAMSUNG LED 1,000,000 DyContrast. This TV images are *********** amazing. Is 1.2″ wide…

The major Sony competition and the price is much better.

So what does the 46w4100 compare to for 2009? and is it worth buying the discount model?

One thing that I dont understand is that why does sony keep on raising the prices on these dam newer model TV’s I would expect not to pay 2k for a 40′inch xbr9 WTF? since the economy is all mest up.

What are they trying to rip people off?

I own a 46Z4100 and have had nothing but problems with it. I have been without the TV for going on a month now and Sony couldn’t care less. Their authorized service center is laughable . Their customer service is a poor excuse for service. And, their exchange department is reluctant at best and unfair . They want to exchange my TV which i bought in mid Nov 2008 and functioned properly for less than 3 weeks for a lesser model’
I made the unfortunate mistake of purchasing a Sony from sonystyle.com
I would rather have AIDS than a Sony st this point
just a warning
