If quality of a television set is one of the most important things for you and your life revolves around your television set, then, Sony BRAVIA KDL-40S3000 40in TV is the answer for your life style. For the price that is a little bit over $1,000 you can have one of the superior products to provide you with every thing that you need from a television.
To start with, installing the television set once it arrives at your home is pretty easy and can be done by one person. As soon as the television is fully installed, you will see that the setup menu is complete and easy to understand. You just need to bear in mind that when you have chosen an input and label it, the remaining unchosen inputs of the menu will disappear. Consequently, when your time-shift recording of your favorite show fails, you will be redirected to a pre-programmed picture that might not suit your liking. To avoid this, you should connect your laptop to your television to choose your own alternative picture to show on the screen.
The picture is completely perfect if you are subscribed to a cable TV provider, but even if you are not, you are still watching the television with exactly the same quality of picture with all other televisions that are using a HD setting, as long as you are using an over-the-air antenna. The only reception failures that sometimes happen is channels 2 and 4, during bad weather.
There are two aspect ratio settings, automatic and fixed. Automatic aspect ration setting allows you to see all images of HD broadcasts in the best possible size, although it means that you will be seeing the size of your screen changes as the signal from the currently showing TV station changes. If you don't want this to happen, then you should choose the fixed aspect ration setting, which makes all pictures shown on your television screen come out in the same size, although this means that you will not be able to see the maximum size of some brilliant images.
Moving on the audio part of the television set, the sound quality is perfect that you shouldn't feel the need to connect it to your stereo system.
The remote control for this television set is a 'smart' remote control, which you have to learn to use some complex commands and even program some new or unusual programs to suit your regular use.
In conclusion, even though Sony BRAVIA KDL-40S3000 40in TV might not be the screen you choose for your home-theater, it will surely represent yourself and your life style when put in the living room or the family room.
