 Incrediably sharp picture. Smelly! May 22, 2008

Heh, first time I have used smelly in a review, but this set DOES run warm like another poster said. For the first week, this made the set have a high temperature electronic type smell in my bedroom (with door closed). Gone in a week tho.
With a 1080P source (Blu-Ray), the picture cannot get any sharper. This high resolution for a 32" is probably overkill but DANG its good! There is just a ton of pixels. Upscaled 1080P DVD look just about as good as high def because of the set's smaller size. Standard TV signal looks fine (again in comparison to my larger SONY XBR 40").
Controls are good and simple to understand and operate. First time I have had extra HDMI slots. Sound is very good though the built in speakers but needs more bass (as does all my LCD TV speakers). Has a lot of extras that I have yet to fool with or notice. Motionflow? DMeX?
The set is very handsome with a surprising gap between the bottom of the TV and the top of the speaker bar. Very good base keeps the set solid on the table.
A winner!

I've had this TV for about a month now, and let me first say that it is an amazing monitor. It's bright, sharp, and I definitely concur with all of the other positive reviews about it. However, my low rating is more a reflection on Amazon and other websites that continue to "cut and paste" their product descriptions either from previous year model specifications or from really flawed research. In purchasing a new TV, the 3 criteria I had was LCD (Plasma is great but a real drain on electricity); 1080p (we have HD satelite and a Sony PS3/blu-ray); and last but probably the most important for me was 120hz capability. If you look both on this site and on sites like ZDnet or CNET, they all describe this as having Motionflow (Sony's version of 120hz) which dramatically reduces judder. I know that some people don't find the "sopa opera" effect all that appealing, but I really like it for some things and wanted it for my next TV.
THE SONY KDL-32XBR6 DOES NOT HAVE MOTIONFLOW/120hz.
I've researched the forums and because of coflicting reporst (some coming directly from Sony Technical Support) I know that their is still debate on whether it does or not. I've concluded that it DOES NOT. I've spoken with Sony's tech guys...they say it doesn't. Their website suggest from an ommission of this specification on their product description that it does not. And finally, I've spent the better have of a month renting Blu-Ray after Blu-Ray trying to replicate the 120hz "look" and have not been able to do it. I've played with settings on both the tv and my PS3 and their is nothing to indicate that it has Motionflow. It does have Cinemotion which is definitely NOT Motionflow. Even the manual for the TV idicates that only their new "W" series has Motion Enhancer which activates Motionflow (even this isn't entirely accurate because I know that some of the other larger XBR4, 5 and 6 models do have Motionflow.
Anyway, as I said, this is a non-essential feature for some people, but it was a major reason for me choosing this model, and I'm now extremely irritated by Amazon for posting misleading product information.
With all of this said, I am still satisfied with the TV for all of my other needs. The PS3 games and movies look beatiful, and I've seriously become spoiled for HD (it's actually pretty jarrig to go back to standard definition when switching to non-HD channels). Would I still recomend this TV?...yes but as most know, Sony relies heavily on its name recognition which allows them to hike up the price point of their stuff. I would certainly look at Samsung's LCDs as well. Just as good (if not better) and usually marked $50-$200 less.

Sony KDL 32XBR6 is a great 1080p HDTV but if it arrives in one piece. Amazon had "Butterfly Photo" as a supplier so I went directly to Butterfly Photo. This was a BIG mistake. They sent me a TV with the forklift fork punched through the middle of 32" LCD screen. You can only see this damage after you have removed the TV out of the packing and box. I am now on hold pattern for last three weeks from poorest customer service from Butterfly Photo. They have an outstanding claim with the FedEx. I was told to be quite and just wait (this is just an accident). I can't understand why Amazon would pick these bozos as their supplier!
I would say that Amazon is a great company with their own white glove delivery. Nothing against Amazon or Sony products. This NJ based Butterfly Photo has given me lots of butterflies in my tummy. Next time, only Amazon supplied, packed and shipped items.
One Awesome Toy--Best TV I've Ever Had May 3, 2008

Picked this bad boy up today (May 2 2008) and I was blown away by the picture, literally. I purchased a PS3 and a $100.00 HDMI cord (crazy price) and when you add the two together its like your in a real world in GTA. At the time of this review I didn't have any Blu-Ray movies but I popped a DVD in and the PS3 upcoverted it and the picture quality was 10x better than a traditional tube tv. I can't wait to try Blu-Ray on this thing. Also if you have Basic Cable the picture looks pretty good and the built in TV Guide is really useful.
Overall if you are looking for a LCD tv that has all the features including the ever important 1080p this TV and you don't need a 40-60 inch tv then this is for you.
ENJOY!

Bought this TV today locally for an incredibly low price. (For those doing the same - the box will fit in the back seat of a BMW 3 series. It must sit upright or the store won't load it.) TV is lightweight and easy to set up, although I misread the directions for attaching the stand the first time (it goes over the neck, not lined up to it - this will make sense if you buy one). Plugged the HDMI cable into the cable box and into the TV and presto! beautiful picture. Have now had it in place all of 30 minutes, and I can't think of a bad thing to say. 480 cable looks fine. 720 cable looks good and 1080 looks amazing. The sound and picture are really good right out of the box.
