Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The simple and elegant KDL-32M4000 HDTV brings with it BRAVIA Theatre Sync (HDMI-CEC) for easy, one-touch management of compatible Sony products, ACE contrast enhancement for better shadow detail, and BRAVIA Engine 2 for crystal clear picture quality. And with two HDMI inputs, an additional two component inputs, as well as a PC input you now have up to five different ways to make sure you see HD-level picture quality on the screen. Surrounding all this technology is the sleek, sophisticated design that has been a hallmark of the M-series and Sony televisions. Available in black, red, brown and white.

Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE)
Part of the cinematic drama in film-making comes from details found in shadows and dark areas of the picture. Sony’s Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) uses real-time image processing to dynamically adjust backlight levels for improved contrast without masking details the filmmaker intended you to see. ACE delivers deep blacks in darker scenes, as well as fine details in shadows and other dark areas of the picture for a difference you can truly see.

BRAVIA Engine Technology
The latest version of Sony’s respected BRAVIA Engine fully digital video processor uses a collection of unique SONY algorithms to significantly reduce noise and produce sharp, vibrant, life-like images...

• Dynamic Noise Reduction: Intelligently identifies and dramatically reduces noise in the signal according to the motion and brightness of each scene for clearer, crisper images.
  
• Detail Enhancement: Improved image enhancement algorithms render greater overall detail.
  
• Contrast Enhancement: Works with the Advanced Contrast Enhancer circuit to optimize the contrast for every scene to create better depth and reality. BRAVIA Engine technology optimizes the color, contrast, detail and clarity of every scene for the exceptional performance that BRAVIA HDTVs are known for.

BRAVIA Theatre Sync
BRAVIA Theatre Sync is based on the industry standard HDMI-CEC function and allows your HDMI cable to do more than just transmit pure digital audio and video signals by allowing one-touch control of compatible A/V components.

• Functions include: ONE-PUSH PLAY, ONE-PUSH THEATRE SETTINGS and ONE-PUSH SYSTEM POWER OFF

5.0 out of 5 stars Brown? More like Dark Grey, February 12, 2009

This review is from: Sony Bravia M-Series KDL-32M4000/T 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV, Brown (Electronics)

First of all, I bought this from J&R Music's shop on Amazon. It was on sale for about $150 cheaper than the black, red or white versions. I guess the idea of "brown" scared people away, and they had to dump inventory.

Anyway, the unit is to be placed in a fruitwood entertsainment center, so "brown" wouldn't be noticable. The unit arrives in less than 5 days, and I thought they sent a black unit. My wife and daughter could not see the "brown" as I described it. It is more of a contrasting dark grey over the speakers and on a part of the stand that you will never see. The color is lost if seen over 3 ft away. Take the savings, buy it!

Color and sound are excelent. Picture is equal to the Samsung ln32a450 it replaced. Sound is noticably better. HD is where it shines, SD is acceptable when viewing 10 feet away. I am using the QAM clear on HD cable and very happy with my "free" HD. I will set up through HD FIOS TV next week, but expect same great results.

Save your money, go 720p on this 32", buy it in brown, use the savings to upgrade to HD Cable, Sat or FIOS. SD is dead.

This review is from: Sony Bravia M-Series KDL-32M4000/T 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV, Brown (Electronics)

This television has an amazing picture on the HD channels. I'm not sure it can get much better than this, if at all. It will blow you away. The sound is good and clear and the remote and setup is simple. I did have to go through the auto setup a couple of times before it got all my channels - I get cable and satellite so that may have had something to do with it. That may also have to do with the picture being pretty grainy on some of the cable channels that are not HD. All the satellite channels look good so that is why I think it may be because of both signals coming in together. One thing I want you to know is that it really did not look the same as it comes across in the photograph with this listing. I bought this in the brown and I thought it was going to have a similar appearance and casing color as the touch of color televisions do, but it is nothing like that. The color is more on the metal below the casing than on the casing around the tv. It in no way enhances the picture and you really hardly notice it at all in the brown. The color on this one was a little disappointing because it is not a brown that you really see in contrast to the black. However, I got it for a great price. It was shipped and packaged well and quickly. And the picture quality is really amazing.

Sony TV's have always had great picture quality and this set is no exception. Right out of the box its practically perfect - not much adjustment needed. I used Avia and it was almost spot on already. The "brown" color is hardly noticeable and allowed for a substantial savings.

I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a 32 inch TV. There is nothing better than Sony in an LCD flat panel display. All the connections you could ever want.

Like I said....AMAZING
