Sony KDFE50A10 50" LCD Rear Projection Television description
Bring a true cinema experience into your own living room with the 50-inch Sony KDFE50A10 rear-projection LCD TV, which features a new design with a thin dark black bezel, a compact body and invisible speakers located at the bottom of the set. It features built-in analog (NTSC) and HDTV digital (ATSC) tuners. (Digital high-definition programming is available via terrestrial signals (over-the-air) or unscrambled cable signals provided by your cable company.) It's also Digital Cable Ready, so you can enjoy digital cable without an additional box or remote.

The KDFE50A10 uses the 3LCD video projection system, which combines three LCD panels to produce an image for a brighter picture in well-lit rooms, intensly vibrant natural colors, and spectacular HD performance. It's driven by Sony's WEGA Engine System, which delivers superb picture quality from any video source by minimizing the signal deterioration caused by digital-to-analog conversion and stabilizing the signal processing.

The Digital Reality Creation line doubling feature replaces the signal's NTSC waveform with the HD equivalent, while doubling the number of vertical and horizontal lines. This results in four times the density for quality sources, such as DVD, satellite and digital camcorders. The CineMotion technology feature uses reverse 3-2 pull down technology, providing smoother picture movement when playing back movies or other video sources on film. Other features include the Steady Sound audio equalizer (for consistent output between programs and commercials), parental controls (V-chip), Favorites channel list, front AV Inputs for connecting camcorders or video game consoles,and an HDMI connection for uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between the TV and any HDMI-equipped audio/video component.

It has a 24-watt stereo audio system (two 12-watt speakers) and TruSurround XT compatibility. It features the following video and audio connections:

  • Composite AV In (RCA): 3 (1 front)
  • S-Video In: 1
  • RF In: 1
  • Component Video In: 3 (1 front)
  • HDMI In: 1
  • PC In (D-Sub 15-pin): 1

Sony KDFE50A10 50" LCD Rear Projection Television Customer Reviews

♥♥♥♥ very good TV
I did my homework (like many others) for 4 weeks, before deciding on the Sony kdf-e50a10. At first, i purchased the samsung hl-r4667w which had a good picture. i also noticed the sony, which had a slightly better picture and was a little larger 50", but was about another $400.

after taking the samsung home, i realized two things:
1. i like the sharper picture (as opposed to the 'cinema look')
2. DLPs have 2 moving parts (color wheel and fan), while LCD projection has 1 (fan).

-if you will be watching alot of movies (of darker persuasion like tim burton or night scenes) and prefer the cinema look, then the samsung is fine and you save money.
-if you will be watching regular tv, sports or brighter movies (like nemo, etc.) and prefer a brighter, better defined picture, then it may be worthwile to spend the extra money.
-last, because these are all new technologies, i just figured less moving parts are probably better.

i did not give a 5 star because now the 1080Ps are out, and there's no comparison. But for entry-level 720P lcd rptv, the sony kdf-e50a10 is pretty much at the top (especially b/c amazon has them on sale right now for under $2000).

hope this review helped.
