Sony KV-20/25XBR thread.

[mirayge]

My $17 KV-20XBR is now up and running in the guest/granddaughter's room. This thing has a great picture with completely straight convergence and only slight blooming in very bright true red. I set it with a THX optimizer disk and then backed off the brightness and contrast settings a bit. WOW! There was a Yellowbook comercial on with brightly colored wires in red, green and yellow on a white background. Blew my mind after having watched mid 90's RCA CRTs the last few years. The only 'problem' (if you can call it that) is it seems to have an uncompressed color gamut. I don't have an original remote, therefore no trinitone settings. Normal people are fine. Spray tan people are REALY orange. Wood interiors all look like old Irish manors. Ah, vintage TV!

Spray-tan people are supposed to be orange... they look sooo beautiful in all that make-up . I wonder what thier intimate other looks like after a private session?

Sony sets are ofetn very impressive to me. I have a 27" with the big speaker boxes inside that vent on thin strips on each side and I love the set even though I more love my classic sets from the '60's and '70's. You will be able to get a remote. If not here on epay.
