SONY KE42XBR900 42'' Plasma TV

SONY KE42XBR900 42'' Plasma TV

Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The KE-42XBR900 flat-panel plasma TV employs Sony's proprietary WEGA engine to broadcast vibrant, crisp images on its 42-inch screen. Even more strikingly, the monitor is a mere 4 inches thick, so users can enjoy the best DVD and satellite entertainment on a sleek, sophisticated display that's thinner than pretty much any other home appliance. The WEGA engine consists of three primary technologies: Direct Digital circuitry, which increases the signal-to-noise ratio when converting from analog to digital; Digital Reality Creation, which ensures that the signal will look consistently crisp regardless of the video source; and a Multi-Image Driver (MID-X), which maintains the integrity of converted signals and enables the Twin View side-by-side and picture-in-picture functions. The TV also offers a DVI-HDTV interface so you can hook up a digital TV receiver to broadcast crystal-clear high-definition images (including 1080i and 720p).

Other features of note for videophiles include CineMotion 3:2 reverse pulldown (preserves original film frame rate), a digital component processor (improves contrast and sharpness), color temperature adjustment, several widescreen modes, and Memory Stick compatibility (for JPEG digital still images). The TV also embraces a host of convenient user features, such as auto channel programming, a multilingual onscreen menu, a sleep timer, Steady Sound volume control, closed captioning, and favorite channel preview for up to eight stations.

The TV's 15-watt speakers provide dramatic, well-proportioned audio in combination with the TruSurround surround sound function, along with the simulated surround and MTS stereo decoding. The TV also lets users adjust the treble, bass, and balance, or even tune into a secondary audio signal when available. Connections stem from the DVI-HDTV interface, two component inputs (ideal for DVD players), three S-video inputs (one front and two rear), three composite inputs (one front and two rear), six audio inputs, and audio, Control S, monitor, and subwoofer outputs.

What's in the Box
TV, remote control, two AA batteries, user's manual.

Great Size, Gorgeous Design, Amazing Price!!.......2007-04-12

Have owned this unit for about 2 years. Very happy with the picture and the quality. Display is very attractive and sony quality at its best

Sony PFM-42V1.......2004-10-05

Had problems with this screen from the start. The image 'jogs' from side to side every so many seconds. It's not all that noticeable on a moving image, but gets very irritating once you're aware of it. Latest problem (nine months in) is a distinct loss of image quality when using s-video input. I'm told by Sony tech support that the s-video card is going out.

Now, here's the clincher. To get any warranty work on this, I have to be without the screen for around 4+ weeks while they use the slowest (cheapest) method to get it to their service center. No loaner, no compensation... just a blank space on the wall.

Ask yourself before you shell out for this screen - "what if it fails? Do I care if I'm without a TV for a month?

Of course, you might not have any problems with the screen, in which case you'll be blissfully unaware of the terrible warranty service.

Replaced TV but quality is outstanding.......2006-10-03

Two bold black vertical lines appeared on this TV.
I also have a 20 inch tv and a 27 inch TV - both Japanese
made and great condition after big time usage.

VHS, DVD, etc. have worked very well. This DELL model is great as long as it works. I am concerned that the first one did not last 3 months.
This second model seems fine - so far. It is a pricey model.

$2K is too much to pay to have to worry about condition of the actual machine....Go with Samsung, Panasonic, Phillips, Mitsubishi or be prepared for early obsolescence, break down in the DELL lane.

It's a great item.......2006-07-11

There are many features incluided in this plasma item by great price.
The great image quallity, picture in picture options, native resolution, terrific sound, package of inputs and outputs, etc. are just a few things that you will have with this television.

ENJOY IT!!!

Do not buy this TV!.......2006-06-17

I bought this TV new and direct from DELL. After just 2 days it would not power on consistently, and when it did it had a very loud buzzing noise. After researching more I found that this is not an uncommon problem. I returned to DELL for a full refund. Avoid TV's made in China!!

2nd times a charm ??.......2006-02-08

After only 4 months my Dell 42"Plasma HDTV developed a thin line running from the bottom of the screen up about midway high. When I called customer service they told me they would replace the TV with a refurbished model. I had only used my TV on weekends for football games or when watching a DVD, it may have had 100 hours of use. I argued that it wouldn't be fair to replace it with someone elses lemon that had been repaired & maybe had a thousand hours on it! According to the fine print there was nothing I could do about it. After a few weeks the refurbished replacement arrived. I was told to come look at it before the serviceman brought it into my house. Sure enough, the screen was scratched in 2 places & I did not accept it. After many, many calls & faulty information from customer service, I asked to speak to the supervisor & threatened a lawsuit. Finally I was promised a brand new TV as a replacement. I recieved the new TV 9 weeks after I first contacted customer service about the vertical line. I am happy that I recieved a new TV but unhappy that the warranty does not start over with the replacement, it still begins with the original sale! I have never in my life spent that kind of money ($3000) on an item from a catalogue or from viewing it on the internet. Had I bought this TV from a store, I would have been at the counter immediately & recieved my replacement TV much quicker. I spent many hours on the phone during the Christmas holiday speaking with at least 15 different Dell representatives, many of which could not speak English. It was a very aggravating situation to say the least. Never again will I spend that much money on an item without 'test driving' it first.

Perfect TV, crappy price.......2005-12-19

I bought this TV direct from the dell website for much less then offered here (I paid just over $2200 including shipping). I had read reports that the TV had a buzzing sound, which made me a little wary, but it came with a warrenty and a money back promise so I figured I'd give it a try. The buzzing sound DOES NOT exist in my TV, and it has flawless picture and sound. The only thing that irritated me was the inputs which took forever to get working correctly, but with a little patients everything worked out. I do believe the only downside to the TV now is the annoying volume bar, which after you change the volume on the TV seems to stay there forever. Hardly something that should make or break your decision to get this TV.

Amazon.com Product Description

Sony's 42-inch 16:9 flat-panel plasma TV comes with everything you need to enjoy quality programming, including a built-in NTSC TV tuner and built-in 9-watts-per-channel stereo speakers. The KE-42TS2 features a high 1,000:1 contrast ratio for deeper blacks and vivid colors and 43 percent improved brightness. You can also connect it to your computer to serve as a monitor.

This TV offers Sony's TruSurround Sound SR 3D Audio processing, which creates the effect of surround sound using only the two built-in speakers. This technology eliminates the need to sit in the "sweet spot" where the audio sounds best, ensuring that any seat in the house is a good one. It also features reverse 3:2 pulldown, which reassembles the frame sequence of your original film-based content from DVDs to more accurately reproduce the original 24-frame-per-second material.

The KE-42TS2 sports a resolution of 1024 x 1024 (1024 dots x 1024 lines), and its built-in NTSC tuner means you may not need any external hardware to watch TV. For precision control, the KE-42TS2 allows you to make color temperature adjustments (to compensate for variations in ambient lighting) and dot phase adjustment when being used as a computer monitor. Its onscreen menus are available in English, Spanish, and French, and it can display closed captioning for the hearing impaired or silent viewing.

A direct DVI (digital video interface) HDTV connection ensures that through digital transmission of HD signals from external devices featuring a DVI connector, images retain their fullest quality. The set also has HD component-video and S-Video inputs for connecting a DVD player or other high-resolution device, an RF input for connecting a VCR, and composite-video inputs for connecting a camcorder or video game. Its audio outputs include a separate subwoofer feed. Audio and video inputs are located on both the front and the back of the TV for easy access.

The KE-42TS2 can be wall mounted with the optional wall bracket, or placed on the floor using the optional floor stand.

For all of you logical minded folks out there - I had sent an email to jkr_seller@yahoo.com. This seller of he "Sony KE42TS2 42" WEGA HDTV Integrated Flat Panel Plasma TV" for $800 requests the interested buyer to do this.

The cheapest place I have found this TV is at GoodGuys for $3,499, so I am obviously on the alert. I have received the following email text from email address: "Ginger Zimmerman" "

Hello Ashton Pitts,

The price for the Sony KE42TS2 42" is 800 USD, the Sony KE42TS2 42" is brand new, with all standard accessories.
For shipping i am using UPS and for the payment Western Union managed by a third part service (Square Trade).
So please tell me if agree in starting a transaction,
I wait your reply
Thank you

Just as R. Zurbick correctly forewarned, the buyer is asking to be paid outside of Amazon through a 3rd party service via Wester Union. I have responded back to the seller to see if they will accept legit payment such as through amazon and/or a credit card. I will post a review if I hear back... Until then, I am remaining open minded but very guarded. I suggest you do the same.

Sony HDTV Plasma 42in........2004-11-08

I owned this plasma for appx two(2) months now and I am so glad that I bought it, however I should of bought it a long time ago because I missed a lot for quality HD tv. I have my TV hooked up to Comcast cable in Chicago Il. I am very happy with their service but there is a additional charge of $5.00usc for high definition hook up. Well worth the money! Also I would like to give kudos to A.B.T. store where I purchased the tv, Sony Dream System along with a beautiful stand for everything, If you want the best out there go directly to A.B.T store in suburb of Chicago, well worth the trip!! If you just want a simple TV don't go there. What else more could I say? P.S. I watch more TV now then ever! Thats' OK 'cause I am retired!

Functionally identical to Sony's popular PFM-42V1 plasma display but designed to rest on its narrow end for portrait applications, the PFM-42V1P wide screen 42-inch display is ideal for information booths, trade shows, video production, HDTV display, home theaters, board rooms, and more. It has a 852 x 480 maximum resolution, which combines with a multi-layer, AR-coated screen, 1.08 mm dot pitch, and 16.8 million colors to provide accurate, easy-to-read onscreen images. The widescreen 16:9 (full), wide zoom (expanded 4:3), letter box, and standard 4:3 display settings give you several aspect ratios to choose from.

Onscreen menus offer access to a variety of display settings, and you can choose between six display languages (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Japanese). The 15-pin D-Sub, RGB, composite video, BNC, 4-pin Mini DIN, and DVI input connectors accept a wide range of input signals, including SDTV, HDTV, DVI and RGB computer signals as well as NTSC (North America), PAL (Europe), SECAM (South America), NTSC4.43, PAL60, PAL-N PAL-M, and PAL-N. The AC 100 to 240 V, 50/60 Hz power supply consumes about 360 W of power during operation, while the internal 7-watt audio amplifier drives the optional audio speakers. The PFM-42V1P is also compatible with PC and Mac operating systems and is backed by a one-year limited warranty.
