Pros Price, Size, Picture
Cons Too Big For Some Rooms
Recommended it? Yes

The Sony KDF-70XBR950 is... Well, it's so much better than sex? This Sony isn't just 70" in size, but it's also an HDTV, and it's cheap! This is what the Grand Wega is meant to be! I have had the chance to experience one of these in a newly bought home theater system totalling tens of thousands of... Read full review »

Pros Fantastic video quality, huge screen, cool remote
Cons 1 DVI input, needs 3 or 4; lacks newer HDMI input; disabled i.LINK export
Recommended it? Yes

My husband and I originally concentrated on evaluating what we assumed are the best performing HDTVs.....plasma. We were willing to part with the $$$s necessary to leap into the HDTV fray. But every time we entered our local Circuit City store, there were always a few or more people standing over... Read full review »

Pros will make a good paint ball target
Cons known issue with optical module
Recommended it? No

I spent just under 8,000 USD for my KDF70XBR950 in August 05 and it recently started showing a blue squiggely line in the center - bottom of the tv. I had a repair tech come out and he told it had a bad optical assy and that I should contact Sony as there was a known issue with this part. I... Read full review »

A No-Brainer. This Is One Terrific Television Set!

byhometheaterman May 24, 2004
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Huge, clear picture. Good sound, even without a surround sound system. Very sleek and...
Cons Make sure you have the room. This is not a set for the living room.
Recommended it? Yes

To begin with, yes, it is big. But if you have the room, I couldn't recommend this set any higher. My wife and I just purchased our first house. While we were house hunting, I knew the basement was going to be an integral part of the decision process for me. After we closed escrow, I went to our... Read full review »

Has problems with dust that gets behind the screen!!

Pros Excellent in every aspect other than dirty screen.
Cons Dusty Screen that you can never clean on yourself.
Recommended it? No

If you buy this set, you are just buying a headache because dust gets behind the screen which the technician said that it is a 2 man 5 hour job to replace the screen. You cannot remove the screen on your own. I am receiving a 3rd brand new replacement in less than a year from Tweeter. Tweeter has... Read full review »

Pros superb quality, lots of inputs
Cons heavy and not easy to move
Recommended it? Yes

I have more big screens than any one person should. The Sony was my 6th over 10 years. Bought my 70" Grand Wega a year ago and I'm still in awe of the Hi Def quality. Sporting events are better in my living room than in person. Lamp went after 11 months but that has been the only issue I've had... Read full review »

Pros Everything! Wonderful tv.
Cons Expensive bulb needs replaced too frequently
Recommended it? Yes

I love my Sony Wega. It is just a wonderful t.v. I love the the color, clarity, and that it is huge. One thing to be aware of is that it has a bulb that costs about $200.00. Ours went out after a couple of months but the sales rep replaced it for free. Evidentally these bulbs have to be replaced... Read full review »
