When buying HDTV, one consideration is the size of the room where the unit will be placed. For an average-sized living room, anywhere from 32 to 46 inches would probably be a good size of an LCD. But how about the Sony Bravia KDL-70XBR7? Where in the world will it fit in an average house? Sure, it would be definitely great to watch your favorite movie on a 70-inch LCD, but unless you have a mini- theater at home, it will be more practical to settle for something smaller.

The Sony KDL-70XBR7 definitely has great built-in features. However, this model will most likely be appealing only to hard-core entertainment enthusiasts who have the money and space to afford this giant telly. Buying this 70-inch XBR7 will cost your pocket around $20,000 which may not be a reasonable amount for most average consumers. However, once you start seeing the images in this big screen, you can’t help but just be awed.

First of all, this gigantic baby has Full HD capability, which means that it is able to produce images at 1080p resolution. Images and scenes look so realistic that it somehow sends the feeling that you are included in the scene, seeing it live, and not just merely watching on a television. Another reason why images seem to pop out and have life is the extremely deep black levels of this 70-inch XBR7, thanks to its 10-bit LCD panel with Advanced Contrast Enhancer and Live Color Creation circuit.

From its predecessor, which is the XBR6 series, Sony further enhanced the features by incorporating the Bravia Engine 2 Pro digital video processing. The Sony Bravia KDL-70XBR7 has 120MHz Motion Flow technology that renders fast moving objects and action scenes smoothly.

In terms of its design, Sony still did a good job. The huge screen is surrounded by piano black bezel with glossy finish and glass details. On each side, you will find the speaker grilles that are just right in size; otherwise, they might ruin the overall design of the 70XBR7.

Connectivity for the Sony KDL-70XBR7 is not a problem as it has just enough built-in ports. The unit includes 4 HDMI 1.3 ports, PC input, component inputs, Ethernet port and an RS-232, which is a step-up from the XBR6 models. It also has Bravia Sync capabilities, as well as DMe.

Having an excellent picture quality on a gargantuan TV screen is indeed something that is truly desired, but, may not match what most people are only willing to pay. Nevertheless, this huge Sony TV will undoubtedly be in the wishlist of many as this is the luxury that not many can pay for. If you think you need so much quality and screen estate go to Amazon where there are just two models left for a price of $19,999 with free shipping included.
