Sony KDL-S32A12U 32" LCD Television Review

Lisa Malyon

 The affordable KDL-S32A12U is one of Sony’s best budget LCD screens yet. Although some may describe it as a stripped down version of Sony’s more expensive screens, there has definitely been no cost cutting during the design process. The silver curvy finish gives it a clean, streamlined, look which can only be described as aesthetically pleasing. Including the stand the TV weighs a whopping 20kg, it measures 608 x 309 x 792mm (be careful on the way up the stairs). Sony KDLS32A12U LCD TV
The Sony’s KDL-S32A12U offers all the features you need for receiving high definition television. It is HD ready with integrated digital tuner ready for Freeview reception. It contains Virtual Dolby, picture in picture freeze, light sensor, analogue VGA jack and PC input. There's also an HDMI digital video connection which is an essential if you want to receive Sky's HDTV services, which begin in 2007.

Installation is easy, just plug it in and use the auto set-up feature and hey presto, you're away.

The only pitfall to mention is the lack of proprietary picture processing to boost detail, improve colour or reduce picture noise. This is unfortunate, however, the picture is still very impressive. Equally impressive is sound quality, sound performance is first class.

Pros
+ Excellent picture and sound

Cons
- The silver surround means it lacks contrast
