I picked this set up a week ago and must say thatI'm extremely pleased considering the price I paid.I hooked it up to my cable providers HD box using adirt cheap HDMI cable. The factory default settingsare very good with no obvious deficiencies.If your concerned about this set being only 60Hz, don't.I have watched basketball and football on this setand have not experienced any lagging, blurring, etc.Yes it only has 3 HDMI inputs, but for me it's plenty enough.I use 1 for my HD box connection and another for my PS3.I'm currently shopping for a new surround sound systemwhich will use my 3rd and final input.Speaking of sound, granted it's not the best coming out ofthe set, but its not as bad as some may make it out to be.All in all, I have to rank this as the best deal on the marketfor a 52" LCD set. I spent 3 months researching and comparingprices before I decided on this one.

Download the new TV's firmware upgrade of from Sony's web page, copy it to a flash drive, insert it in the USB port in the back of the TV, and the dim problem will be solved.

Bought it at the local BB a few months ago. Could've gotten more features from other brands at about the same price; or same features and size for less money but wife wanted a Sony, so for our budget we had to settle for this entry model. The set up was very easy and overall very user-friendly.Had the same dimming problem many had. Tried to download the fix via Sony's website but the TV woudln't recognize any of my USB drive, so we called Sony to send a drive to us and problem mostly fixed. On some of the dark scenes it seems like the TV still want to dimm out but is fighting itself.The stand feels kind of flimsy but is holding up so far. The internal speakers are surprisingly good. Not surround or anything but they are loud and relatively clean. The TV quality is good so for fast-action sport games.Overall, it's a very nice unit.
