Pros: Everything! The picture and the sound are of theater quality, the remote is easy to use, PIP functions are numerous, a useful users guide for a change Cons: The KP is a big TV, not HDTV ready, what is digital TV?
What makes you buy a TV? What makes a TV great, or merely ok? Why do I hesitate to recommend this TV to everyone? These are important questions that you need to ask yourself before purchasing the KP-53V80.
Pros: Fantastic Picture as well as Affordable, Digital Ready, 3 Comb Filter Cons: Not HDTV Ready
November 11th 1999 is the day I received this 53in projection television. As you can assume, I was extremely excited. I had spent two solid months shopping, reviewing, and pricing different projection televisions. Needless to say….it was not an easy...
Pros: Excellent sound, good picture, good price, great for kids Cons: Can hurt eyes if less than 10ft away from seat
I once had a Sony KP53-V80. I really loved that TV. But eventually I traded it in for a smaller KP43-S70, it was too big for my room, but despite that an excellent TV. I wish I could've kept the TV. The TV was just incredible in virtually every...
Pros: Color, clarity, component inputs, brightness, quality, etc., should I go on? Cons: Renting way too many DVDs. Not much else. Maybe the remote, but I'm reaching here.
Based on all OBJECTIVE opinions that I received, this was by far the most recommended non-HDTV set. I was concerned about the common complaints about low brightness that you hear about projection TVs, but that's not the case here. You'd swear it has a...
Pros: Many features and Awesome Picture Cons: Gotta make room for it, best when viewed from at least 10 feet
Okay, here we go again. Whenever my husband and I are planning to make a large purchase such as this, a lot of research is involved. Mostly, it's me doing all the work, talking and reading consumer reports. Sadly, Consumer Reports on-line has very...
Pros: Picture, flexibility, good value Cons: Remote, non-removable protective screen, marginal communication with Sony surround receiver.
I've worked in radio and TV for 30+ years, and I'm tight when it comes to spending money. However, back in 1987 I bought a 25" Sony XBR set which still looks better than 90% of the sets in stores, and I've worked with Sony monitors for years. I like ...
Pros: 3d digital comb filter, 2Tuner PIP, Matrix Surround Sound, component inputs Cons: none
This Sony projection TV is one of the best projection TVs out there. I bought
it because it was better than any other projection TV out there. It has
exceptional Picture and sound. This TV has many other features too.
Pros: Picture quality and color, top-notch for the price you pay, feature rich. Cons: none that I can think of.
In my opinion, Sony makes the best TV in the world when it comes to color and picture qualities. So I was keeping my eyes on the V80 for a while and decided to get one for my basement home entertainment system about a year ago.
Pros: Great Picture, Flexible Viewing Area, Good Value Cons: Makes My Living Room Look Small, Watching Too Much T.V.
When I went shopping for a Big Screen T.V. the first thing I noticed was how much better the Sony picture was in comparison to all the other's. I quickly decided to buy a Sony but the question was "Which one?". Well, after seeing the price...
Pros: Excellent picture, neat features, Sony Cons: Big
I have the previous version of this TV, but I wanted to write about the "V" line from Sony. I did a lot of research before I got mine and I would recommend the "V" line as Sony's best bang-for-the-buck. I could really tell the...
Not many TVs can be called the best, but one most certainly can it of course is made buy sony. Sony also brought you playstation, playstation 2 and many great vcrs and other tvs. This tv has many wonderful feature like great sound and an unbeatable...
Pros: Easy setup, universal remote, great picture Cons: none yet
I have had this projection TV for about 3 months now and I love it. I got the v80 model because Circuit City was out of the v75 model, and because it already has a screen saver included. This TV's on screen menu is so easy to use and it has all the...
Pros: Great picture, and sound Cons: took me a while to learn how to use all the options
Gotta love it. This t.v. has everything I wanted. Being a Sony I knew it would be good. It took a long time to decide on a new t.v. for the family room, but I'm glad we researched and ended up with this one. If you are shopping for value, this has...
Pros: Great sound and picture Cons: NOne that i can think of
I recently purchased the Sony KP-53v80 television from a local electronics store. It is probably the best television that i have ever owned. I bought this after researching it for a while and deciding that i was in the market for a new Television. Not...
Pros: Great picture and sound Cons: Costly repair bills
My husband wanted a big screen TV for years and finally we bought this Sony about three years ago. Everything about it was wonderful for the first two years. The picture was great and so was the sound and I have to say we thoroughly enjoyed the...
