The KDL-52XBR9 - Sony’s Latest LCD Behemoth
Posted by Atane on June 29, 2009
Sony has continued to push the envelope in terms of performance with their XBR line of LCD displays. The latest model is the XBR9. They come in a whole range of sizes, but when it comes to displays, bigger is always better to me. So naturally, the set that interests me the most is the 52 inch version, the KDL-52XBR9.
The KDL-52XBR9 is a feast for sore eyes. The shortcomings of LCD technology are not here. What is here is clean, natural and smooth image quality. The display uses Sony’s Bravia engine, which reduces digital noise and provides a sharp image. Black levels are deep and inky. Almost “kuro” like for those still lamenting the demise of perhaps the best plasma display on the market. Rest easy, technology is getting better.
