Product Description
Bigger, brighter and better than ever, the KDS-R70XBR2 redefines the high-definition 1080p experience with stunning detail and clarity.SXRD??? television meets the XBR?? heritage.Since 1984, Sony has awarded the XBR?? designation to televisions with our highest performance, most advanced features and most sophisticated styling. Over the years, the XBR Series has convinced even the most skeptical magazine reviewers, won over the most jaded industry professionals, and dazzled the most discriminating owners. The exalted position comes as no surprise. For decades, Sony has led not only in television, but also in professional video. For example, broadcast professionals depend on Sony monitors for critical evaluation of TV picture focus, contrast, exposure and color. Unsurpassed in the world, this expertise has always been reflected in the engineering of XBR television. Today's SXRD??? Grand WEGA??? televisions carry this proud tradition forward. If you want the inside story on what distinguishes an XBR television, you've come to the right place. Here we'll take a look at how SXRD XBR televisions deliver a High Definition experience above and beyond the ordinary.

5 out of 5 stars the best TV in Market   January 2, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Compre este TV hace 1 mes en Dolphin Mall, es el mejor Tv que existe en el mercado, la imagen es nitida y el tamano es espectacular. Se sacan los parlantes y viene con una lampara de repuesto, el remote control esta mejor que el de 60xbr2. Estoy feliz con mi TV.


5 out of 5 stars As good as you can get for size and price.   May 18, 2007

You must see this RPTV in a darkened room with the proper settings to appreciate the excellence of this product. This is as good as it gets for $4400 (Appliance Best Buys) delivered. Forget LCDs and Plasmas- if you have two feet to spare for the depth of this unit you will not be disappointed. Sony packaging is inadequate so be careful of the shipping coverage.


5 out of 5 stars Pretty Damn Great TV   March 5, 2007

I had to replace my 61" Sony XBR 1080i 4:3 projection TV. We loved that TV. This was the only TV available that was similar in size. The 60" 16:9 TVs weren't big enough. I got this two weeks ago. HD Tivo looks epic. We find ourselves watching nature programs that we typically wouldn't watch, but the picture is so amazing.

I looked into the Mitsu and Samsung 73" models, but they didn't seem to have the same quality.

I recommend looking for another stand. We actually found a BDI credenza that was 77" wide. The factory stand is surprisingly character-less and sterile. I also recommend grabbing a HDMI upconvert DVD player if you aren't going to go BlueRay or HD-DVD.

We couldn't be happier.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic large display   December 3, 2006
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

I've had this display for two months and am continually in awe of how fantastic HD looks. Watched "Polar Express" with the kids this week--very smooth, no banding, great color saturation, excellent contrast (has that 3-D depth that you see with plasmas).

When you first get it home, the display will look immense, but you very quickly get used to it. 10-11 feet away is the sweet spot. After seeing movies and sports on a 70" screen, there's no way you would be happy with a 60" or smaller.

Highly recommended.



5 out of 5 stars Amazing quality...Excellent value   November 29, 2006

I have been looking for a large screen TV for the past 2 years. Have done extensive reviews and research into the best technologies versus price point. The 1080i version of this TV was selling for $13000 last year (albeit it was "hand-made") but personally I do not care for that. Botton line is that of you have the space and want the best picture quality then Sony XBR2 is the way to go. I bought mine a little over 2 weeks ago and it has already become a center piece of my living room. Watching movies at night with all the lights closed is an experience. Even though I am sitting 10-12 feet away the screen is so big that it looks super. In fact I have sat as close as 6 feet away and everything is clear as crystal with HD TV. Can't wait to get Blu-ray player. It also comes with a spare bulb (handy). Bottom line is you can't beat this TV. I challenge anyone to tell me otherwise :-) Worth the money.
