Sony 40" BRAVIA V-Series 1080p LCD HDTV
Model: KDL-40V4150
Description: The 40" Sony KDL-40V4150 offers full 1080p screen resolution, plus so much more. Compared to Sony's previous "V-series" TVs, this one provides more inputs for connecting the latest HD gear and better picture quality with non-HD programs. The '40V4150 is virtually identical to Sony's KDL-40V4100, but the '40V4150 extends the warranty period to 18 months.
High-definition video sources look stunning on the KDL-40V4150, but most people still watch at least some non-HD material. That's why it's important to choose a TV with excellent video processing. Sony's latest BRAVIA Engine 2? circuitry cleans up lower-res signals by analyzing and processing each scene to enhance picture contrast, reduce noise, and optimize color.
Another quality that often separates top-notch TVs from no-name models is picture contrast. Sony's Advanced Contrast Enhancer continuously monitors the video signal and adjusts the TV's backlight levels to improve contrast without masking details in darker areas of the picture.
The KDL-40V4150 has built-in tuners for your local digital and analog over-the-air broadcasts (antenna required). Plus, a "QAM" cable TV tuner lets cable subscribers watch unscrambled channels without a set-top box ? including HD channels in many areas.
The versatile set of audio/video connections includes six HD-capable inputs: four HDMI and two component video. And a proprietary rear-panel port lets you expand this TV's capabilities by adding one of Sony's optional .
