Sony's KDL-46V4100 brings 1080p picture quality home with amazing, Sony-exclusive features like the XMB (Xross Media Bar) with 3D graphics, DMeX capability so you can add functionality to your TV, and picture quality technologies like ACE (Advanced Contrast Enhancer) and BRAVIA Engine 2. Full HD 1080p means the V4100 connections accept 1080p signals and the Display will render that signal in Full HD 1080p. Take full advantage of Blu-ray Disc players and PlayStation(R) 3 systems that can deliver 1080p content. The latest version of Sony's respected BRAVIA Engine fully Digital video processor uses a collection of unique SONY algorithms to significantly reduce noise and produce sharp, vibrant, life-like images. With Sony's Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE), which uses real-time image processing to dynamically adjust backlight levels for improved Contrast without masking details the filmmaker intended you to see. ACE delivers deep blacks in darker scenes, as well as fine details in shadows and other dark areas of the picture for a difference you can truly see. Add to that a sophisticated, piano black design, 24p capability so you can get the most out of the movies you watch on Blu-ray and DVD, 4 HDMI inputs along with three other HD-capable connections, and what you have is a television that can bring dreams to life.

 Original Owner for 18 months strong! September 4, 2010
lestoby
I am an "Old School" TV person and balked at paying over $500 for a TV set, but now that I finally relented by buying this HDTV, I have no regrets!
I purchased my Sony KDL-46V4100 February 2009 for $1,299 at Fry's Electronics. Fry's offers a money-back guarantee if the set went down in price within 30 days. The price dropped $50 twice within 30 days and they happily gave me a total of $100 back - no squabbling or lengthy paperwork required.
I also purchased a 5-year warranty for an extra $189 from Fry's. If anything goes wrong (except for intentional damage) in 5 years, Fry's will come and pick up the set and give me a new one or provide in-home service. When making an expensive purchase, you should invest a little more and buy the extended warranty.
I am happy to announce that I have not had to use my warranty and have had no problems with my Sony. I did extensive consumer research prior to buying an HDTV and had narrowed my choices to Samsung, Sony Bravia, and Hitatchi. Samsung HDTV's were a bit out of my budget, but Sony was more competitive during the recession.
I am confident that my TV will outlast my 5-year warranty. I never go to the movies because I have my own Movie Theater experience right in my living room (except for the pushing, shoving, lousy seating and high-priced popcorn).
 Great TV August 3, 2010

I checked reviews on a lot of LCD TVs and tried 2 others (Samsung and Sanyo) before getting and keeping this Sony - I've had it for about 8 months now. I had an old sound system that needed RCA phono plug inputs, which the Sony has (Samsung didn't) - when this TV was on sale for $788 I figured I'd spring for a Sony and am glad I did. The picture quality is excellent (the Sanyo had green blacks), sound is good without the sound system, and the TV Guide feature is great since I only use antenna. HD is excellent and Std resolution shows are good too - better than the other two. Old black and white shows are true b/w. Others have said Sony quality is not what it used to be, but I've not had that experience - this is a fine TV.
Great Service and value March 7, 2010

The original order was out of stock but the retailer upgraded to a newer model with more features at no extra cost. Was delivered on schedule. TV has a great picture with many nice features. I am still having a problem viewing a slideshow from USB source but am making progress. I recommend this product and retailer.
What a great surprise! February 9, 2010

I ordered this tv a few weeks ago because it was on sale and the shipping was going to be free for it. I had been searching around for the best deal on a quality tv for months now, and finally pulled the trigger on this one after i had done some research. To my surprise, before the day that the tv was supposed to be sent, i received a call from Home Theater Systems saying that they no longer make this tv anymore and that they would upgrade me to a current model for free. I was immediately shipped the VE5 46 Inch Bravia with everything updated such as refresh rate, more HDMI ports, and everything else. Turned out to be a $2,000 dollar tv for less than half the price. Quite a steal in my book.
Great experience with Sony service December 7, 2009

So far, my experience with Sony's KDL-46V4100 has been very good. Picture is excellent, after about 4 months I have had no problems.
The only dilemma I had was user error - at first I had some older DVD players which would not function on the Composite input to the TV. I finally had Sony service come out to show me that my older players, even though they had composite output, were not compatible with this television (duh). But, I had one newer player than worked just fine. Service could have charged me $100 for the visit, but they didn't, the technician was patient with my ignorance.
So I would rate my local service provider for Sony very highly. Quite a shocker.
