      Comments about Sony KDL-40XBR7 40-inch Bravia XBR Series 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV:

      I leaned towards this model over the xbr6 because of the extra speakers and supposed surround, but unless you are adding a home theatre system than the sound quality is just okay compared to the picture which is excellent in HD. Even non HD channels look good. I also bought the panamax line conditioner just to be sure of no interference but I'm not sure if that made a difference. If it weren't for the speakers I would rate this a 5.

        I performed a pretty in-depth search for a tv that satisfied my budget range, and by far, from what I found, this system fit the bill. I test drove it and I have to say that I'm very satisfied so far.
