“Sony’s KDL46V4100 presents great picture and sound quality:”

Review of Sony KDL46V4100 from Amazon.com
I ‘ll just state why I picked this TV over a similarly featured Samsung with a lower price.
1. Sony reliability. Sony TVs usually score high for reliability. I also know somebody who installs home theaters and he stated he has never had any complaints about Sony LCDs, Plasmas, TVs, etc. I’d rather spend more for a TV that doesn’t break than deal with hassles of getting it repaired under an extended warranty (which I did buy).
2. The audio on this TV is good. A lot of LCDs out there have horrid speakers on them – no bass, hard to understand voices, etc. I don’t have a separate speaker system so good speakers were required. More importantly, even if I did have a receiver+speakers, do I want to turn them on to watch the news, Oprah, and reruns of Magnum P.I.? Do you want the speaker system on when your kids are watching cartoons at 8AM on Saturday?
3. The picture quality. I think Samsung LCDs have deeper blacks and richer colors. At the same time, I’ve always thought the picture on Samsung TVs to look over processed and fake, just like when you see an advertisement in a magazine and it’s obvious somebody really overdid the photoshop work. I think this TV produces an image that is more true to life. I prefer the picture quality this TV produces.
4. The screen is not glossy on the Sony Bravia KDL46V4100 LCD like some others. Samsung seems to be in the habit of using glossy screens for their more expensive TVs. Unfortunately glossy TVs also reflect daylight from windows. This Sony TV was placed in a room with a lot of windows and there are no issues with the light coming into the room.
