best of both worlds?...Sony 32HS510

Archived from groups: alt.tv.tech.hdtv (More info?)

I am looking to replace my ancient 27" analog RCA with a new tube.
I have looked at several HDTV's that will fit in my entertainment center and
narrowed it down to the Sony. I occasionally watch a DVD, but mostly Dishnet
offerings. I would like to experience HD. I have a small living room and
the furthest I would sit from the TV will be about 11 feet. Is this set a
good choice?

Thanks for opinions,

Jim Waggener

Jim:

This looks like an 'old' post... But in answer to above:

If the Sony fits your existing 4:3 cabinet well... Then

the 32HS510 has all the bells & whistles & nice picture

for Both analog & Digital Programming...

You will suffer the black bar HD 'deal' until you bite

on the 16:9 picture format..... In short term OK...

In the long term, new cabinet & 16:9 set are in order...

I am impressed with my 34HS510 Sony 16:9
