Viewed dozens of HD sets side by side from numerous stores
(even stooped to going into WalMart (Sorry WalMart lovers, but
your favorite store is contributing to the decline of American
civilization). Panasonic, surprisingly, had the worst picture,

2. especially its plasma models. Low-end Dynex, surprisingly, had a
really nice picture, as did Samsung and LG.
BUT...nothing really could match the crispness and true-to-life
looking images on the Sony sets. Remember when the Trinitrons
were the absolute Gold standard amongst all televisions? They
just know what they are doing. I came within inches of buying a
Samsung 46" for $750. Thank God I decided to go to Ultimate
Electronics (BTW: They have filed for bankruptcy very recently
and will be liquidating their store stocks very soon, so you might
get a good deal)
I got this KLD-EX500 46 in set for just $800 and they threw in a
quality HDMI cable for $10 extra (don't trust the HDMI cables
sold on Amazon for $12)
It is easy to set-up. The remote is unbelievably easy to use to
adjust settings, etc. The sound is great, regardless of what
anybody says--they must not have found the graphic equalizer--
which is in addition to being able to adjust the treble and bass.
The picture is truly magnificent. I like bright whites, not ones
that are grey- looking, like on the plasmas. The colors are bright
and accurate. But, the main thing is that the picture is
amazingly crisp, clear and full of detail (for shows broadcast in
HD that is).
This TV will remind you--rather it will exceed everything you
used to love about the Sony Trinitrons. Anyone can make colors
pop, but nobody does this and does it with the clarity and
accuracy like Sony does, in my opinion. To my delight, there has
been NOTHING that has disappointed me about this KDL-EX500
46 in TV, and I consider myself a very discriminating buyer
(hours upon hours of research) when it comes to electronics.

4. What Other Owners Have To Say About Their Sony KDL
EX500 46 inch LCD HD TV
5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the Money, September 8, 2011
By Big Dog
This Sony KDL EX500 46” TV has performed flawlessly so far. I
have had it up about 4 weeks and we just love it. The picture is
very clear and the controls are easy to use. One thing I will say is
that the sound is not great, but I bought a sound bar to use with
it so it is not an issue.
4.0 out of 5 stars Better than average, August 16, 2011
By J. Foster (San Jose CA
I am not a discriminating HDTV buyer but I wanted a reliable
LCD HD set with good performance at a moderate price. I
believe this set meets those objectives. Personally, I do not see
much difference in LCD HDTVs on display in stores. So buying the
latest and greatest technology is not for me. CNET rates this
model highly in the budget category which was the deciding
factor in my choice. In use for a couple of months now, I am
quite happy with it's quality and performance.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great TV for the price, July 12, 2011
By Santos Dumont "14-Bis" (Marietta, GA USA)
Please understand I am a SONY person when talking about TVs.
Even my bad experiences with the LCD and LCOS projection TVs I
had from SONY have not erased my preference for the Brand. It
may be due to historic reasons (Trinitron tube) or something
beyond comprehension. So please, see my review as a semi-
biased one.

5. I currently own two SONYs, one 60" XBR 3D TV and this new
one, 46" Sony. I cannot compare both since the 60" is LED
technology based, and Sony's top of the line, however this new
KDL-EX500 46" TV is a great TV for the price.
First, MANY controls that are normally available only under
SERVICE MODE menu in many other brands.
Second, I found out that a 46" TV in a bedroom is not that big,
just perfect. This Sony KDL-EX500 46" is replacing a Vizio 32" I
had, which is being moved to another room. I really like the
Vizio and I had no reason to replace it, except due to its size. I
considered other brands, but I opted for this Sony.
I just wanted some features I have on my larger Sony TV to be
present on this model: Internet access and the Guide function.
Although I do not use much of these features in the family room
with the larger TV (it is connected to a computer media center),
in the bedroom that would be helpful features. However I
cannot penalize the TV itself since Sony offers other 46" models
with these features built-in.
Overall, the HD picture is stunning, SD picture is good, and
sound is acceptable.
I do recommend this TV.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best choice for under $1000, May 25, 2011
By Fflbrgst
Compared this to similarly-priced models from LG and Samsung,
screen reflection was noticeably less.
Sound is very good, although the various modes don't seem to
change the sound as much as tinkering with the tone controls.
Same with picture - the various modes don't do much, but
adjusting the colors and tints to your personal liking is easy.
Also had more inputs/outputs choices than the competition's
models.
Note, however, that the specs say there are 2 Component and 2
Composite sets of inputs - in fact there are only 3 sets of these
inputs, and 1 is either component or composite.
Using this with non-HD digital cable box the picture is excellent
on modern broadcasts, although older shows are noticeably

7. unsharp. Tuning directly to Comcast cable line (using the RF
coax input) gives HD picture on those stations that are
broadcast that way. DVD picture is excellent without an
upconverter.
4.0 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect, May 9, 2011
By D. D. Horton (Palm Desert, CA USA)
With 120Hz refresh, the Bravia KDL-46EX500 has an outstanding
picture. The setup procedures were not straightforward
particularly when using HDMI connection but a different sound
system. I am also using a Logitech universal remote and the
Sony TV displays input source, picture type & other information
for almost a minute before the entire picture is clear for full
viewing. Lastly, the black trim around the picture has a shine to
it, a distraction to viewing. Still, Sony quality and outstanding
picture make it an excellent buy.
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing tv, February 16, 2011
By Maria Zaragoza (Northridge, USA)
I bought this KDL-EX500 46” tv on black Friday. So Ive had it for
awhile and I have to say this is really great tv. The picture is
amazing and its more awesome with my new blueray DVD
Player. I have had no problems at all with this tv and it was
really easy to use. The only down side about this tv is that the
old wires (yello video,red and white audio) there are only one
output for this. Earthing else is set up for the hd output. This is
the only issue I have with the tv. Beside that it's a great product.
At first I was worry since this was the first time I brought a tv
over amazon. But it was worth it.
