Customer Review: Great TV - Premium Price
We got the Sony Bravia 46XBR6 for an early Christmas present. We are very happy with it. The resolution is great on HD channels, though it took a little while to get used to the non-HD channels...you can now see all the flaws and defects in the broadcast signals. :-) The 'white-glove' delivery service was very good. The delivery was earlier than originally expected! They called to schedule a delivery time. I did the setup myself...but the drop off was great. They did the unpack and verified that everything was working before they left. Our family room has lots of windows, which is one reason I went for the LCD and the Sony in particular. It has a bright and colorful screen and can easily handle a bright room setting. The viewing angle does make a difference. The picture is better with straight on viewing. While the picture is still good at an angle, it takes a little time to get used to it. Some reviewers had complained about the onscreen menus being too complex, but I have found them easy to navigate. The paper manual is lacking in detail for some of the more advanced features. The set actually has some great features that are not well explained by the product description above. Not well documented in the manual either. Here are a couple of examples: * You can load digital photos on a flash drive and plug the flash drive directly into the TV's USB port to do a slideshow on the TV...no PC required. * The TV has an ethernet port and you can connect over ethernet to a media server to directly play movies, show photos, or play music on the media server. The documentation is not very good on this but it is a cool feature. * You can plug your laptop into the TV (you have to buy the cables separately) and play movies off the Web on the TV through the laptop in Real time. I did this with a documentary on Netflix and the resolution and refresh rate were good, but I haven't figured out how to get the picture to come up full size yet. It comes up as a box in the center of the screen (about 2/3 of the screen). Here are a couple of things that I wish were better: * It should have wireless ethernet rather than just a hardwire port. I have found some converters, but that adds more expense. Running cables isn't an appealing option when I already have a wreless network in the house. * The documentation is poor on some of the more advanced features, e.g. networking. I am a fairly technical person and have been able to figure it out but wouldn't recommend this to the technically challenged...call Geek Squad or an IT savvy friend if you want to set it up. Overall, we are happy with the purchase and would do it again. The Sony quality is as good as ever and the Amazon purchase and delivery experience was great.


Structured cabling solutions are ideal for providing data and voice solutions, but they also dovetail nicely with solutions for shared-satellite dish systems for Apartments and Condominiums. The reason is because structured cabling infrastructure requires "home-run" cabling (typically CAT5e or CAT6e) to be installed a main "equipment room" where all active routers and/ or servers can be found. These locations are ideal for housing a satellite TV system (known as a "head-end system"). Satellite TV signals obtained from a few small commercial satellite dishes (typically 30" in diameter) are processed by the head-end system, and are then distributed to each apartment unit in the building in the same fashion as the data cabling.

One of the newest digital satellite TV technologies to be deployed by DISH Network in multifamily properties include QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation), which basically takes a high-frequency range of satellite signals known as QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Key), and down-converts the QPSK signal. So what does this mean to us? Well, since the signal is down-converted, most existing cable systems in Apartments and Condominiums are instantly compatible with newer satellite TV technology. This technology makes it possible for properties with older infrastructure supporting analog cable systems to instantly have access to hundreds of digital TV channels of High Definition, Video-On-Demand, Pay Per View, International and more. In many cases, there's no need for a property owner to rewire.

Although structured cable wiring infrastructure is ideal for the delivery of video, voice and data, property owners that aren't yet ready to foot a hefty the bill for new wiring can breathe a little easier.
