Top-Notch Video Performance
The XBR KDL-32XBR4 is a 720p television with a display resolution of 1366 x 768 resolution for a sharp HD picture. The KDL-32XBR4 uses the HDMI connection, which houses both audio and video signals in one connector and has the bandwidth to support the data necessary for the high resolution. Sony’s Bravia Engine Video Processing System converts all video signals to 720p, so you can watch all your old DVDs on this glorious display.
Sony complements the high resolution with the latest technology in color reproduction. The KDL-32XBR is a 10-bit display with 10-bit processing. Most panels are only 8-bit. The added bit depth here means a larger color palette for more faithful color reproduction and smoother transitions from one color to the next. Additionally, the display features a special WCG-CCFL backlight that, combined with Sony’s Live Color Creation system, achieves more natural and vibrant color.
The KDL-32XBR4 features Sony’s Motionflow technology, which automatically adjusts for and applies the proper processing for optimal motion reproduction depending on the video input. This includes support for 24 frames per second (24p) video, which displays video content at the 24-frames-per-second rate at which it was originally filmed or recorded. With 24p, you get the most faithful possible reproduction of the original.
A Wide Variety of Inputs
This Sony television’s wide variety of inputs ensures compatibility with your other home theater components. There are three HDMI connections for Blu-Ray, HD DVD, and other technologies requiring the high bandwidth, and two component video inputs, three composite video inputs, one S-Video input, one PC Audio and Video input, two RF connection inputs, and five analog audio inputs. Even with a collection of legacy components, you shouldn’t have a problem connecting to the KDL-32XBR4.
Stunning Looks
The KDL-32XBR4 not only displays stunning video but is itself a head-turner. It features Sony’s unique floating glass frame along with a black bezel that can be interchanged with optional color bezels to match the display to your decor.
Outstanding Ergonomics and Simplicity of Control
Sony’s Xross Media Bar interface is an award-winning, intuitive on-screen display that makes setup a breeze, with menus and controls logically laid out for quick access. The KDL-32XBR4 also features Theatre Sync technology, based on the HDMI-CEC standard, which means you can easily connect to and control compatible devices. For example, when the KDL-32XBR4 is connected to a compatible DVD player, you can turn on both the DVD player and the television and start playing a DVD with a single push of a button on the remote. When you’re done, another push of a button powers everything down. With Theatre Sync, you can spend time enjoying the movie rather than waste time setting everything up.
Cutting Edge Sound
Using a set of Sony algorithms, the KDL-32XBR4 is capable of generating realistic surround sound from just the two speakers in the TV. With Sony’s S-Force Front Surround technology, you can have surround sound no matter the shape or size of your room.
The KDL-32XBR4 is backed by a 1-year limited warranty for parts and labor.

Customer Reviews
Big disappointment!
we bought this TV last October and we were thrilled with it…until this October, when a year and a day after we bought it, it broke. SONY was completely unhelpful and is even trying to stick us with an additional bill for a service visit to tell us it was not repairable. I have never written a review before, but wanted others to be aware!
Where has Sony’s build quality done?”
I did my homework. Read everything I could get my hands, polled friends and my IT folks before deciding on this model. It wasn’t too hard, I am (was) a HUGE fan of Sony products. I purchased this TV at Best Buy as I got a good deal because of their spring close-outs. First one had a red vertical line of pixels out of the box , back it goes. Only TV left was a floor model. It worked great for about 5 months. Then a rainbow of veritcal lines on a white background, the picture was reduced to a 3″ vertical band on the left of the screen, back it goes. Now I’m waiting on the Service Center to see if it is repairable. Frankly, I hope it can not be fixed. Time to try my 2nd choice, SAMSUNG.
