The Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 1080p LCD HDTV is an outstanding system like the V2500 series with some upgrades. The first noticeable difference you will recognize is that the Sony KDL-40V3000 looks more elegant than the V2500. The piano black frame is nice and somewhat reflective but not shiny and distractive. The base is sturdy and the rear is well designed so that the input and output cables will have no problem connecting. Overall, the Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 LCD HDTV is a very nice looking flat panel TV.
Like the V2500, the picture quality of the Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 1080p LCD HDTV is stunning, as is expected of Sony HDTVs. Glare is not a problem when watching in a bright room. It's almost as good as watching at night and the wide viewing angle is excellent. Fast action sequences are not as blurry as other LCD HDTVs thanks to the 10 bit processor and Non-HD programs are tolerable unlike other HDTVs. The picture quality of DVDs on the Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 1080p LCD HDTV is excellent. Needless to say, video gaming with a PS3 or Xbox360 is awesome.
Setup is quick and easy. The "Xross Menu Bar" menu is like the PS3's, simple and intuitive. It's basically like the menu in a window of Windows XP with File, Edit, etc. It's recommended that once you turn on the Sony KDL-40V3000 that you change the "vivid" setting to "normal" because normal just looks better. The red and green colors in vivid are "too much". The remote is easy to use and feels nice, but you should invest in a universal remote anyway if you plan to connect multiple devices to the TV.
If you don't have room or enough cash for a surround sound system, the speakers should be good enough. It's not going to sound like a home theater by itself, but the surround sound that the Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 LCD HDTV does offer is very good for a flat panel with a small frame.
The Sony Bravia KDL-40V3000 1080p LCD HDTV is selling at a good price right now and is one of the best HDTVs you can get for the value. You can't go wrong with this model if you don't want to jump to an XBR just yet. Just be careful to not become a couch potato once you have it hooked up. The picture quality is that good. I don't expect anything less from Sony so it's no surprise that the Bravia KDL-40V3000 1080p LCD HDTV is a top performer.
