TV for DV at DVinfo.net

Hi

I am thinking of upgrading my TV set and the model that I am interested and impressed me the most, is the SONY KV-32FQ85. Has anyone got any experience with this particular model? I have the SONY TRV80 and this TV would be handy as it has a memory stick slot for quick viewing.

Merry X-mas

Try it, before you buy it.

I don't see this model on Sony's website. Is it a 4:3 CRT? I see KV-32HS510, KV-32FV310, KV-32FS210 and KV-32FS100. Maybe it's discontinued?

Personally, I have bought my last CRT television and any new purchases will be 16:9 LCD's...

Stelios,
That model appears to be for the European market (and perhaps other countries outside of North America). That means it is most likely multi-system or PAL, and would not be a big seller here in the United States.

I suggest you try one of the search engines, like Google, and type in "Sony KV-32FQ85 reviews". You may get lucky and find a discussion group or forum that has more non-North American product reviews.

Good luck. Nick

I won't buy ANY tv without checking in at www.hometheaterspot.com

Lotsa other electronic item feedback there. Good luck!

They cover PAL TV models?

Can't really say for sure, but they often get as technical as we do here......
