The new Sony 40" TVis going to arrive on Friday. I will be using a DV09 or 9000ES DVD player. Unfortunately, I did not have the chance to do a side by side comparison of the TV. My wife does not want me to purchase a projection TV and so just for the sake of size, I decided on the new Sony 700. Once installed, I will follow up with some comments.How about the Sony 9000ES? Prices are dropping and I guess a new version with full service SACD is in the works. What a crazy business. When will the maddness stop.

Look forward to your posting your experience with the 700. Did you buy the Sony stand? I wished the unit was all black. The silver trim would never go with the wife factor. I'm looking into having it painted by a professional. Did you choose a dvd player? A panny 91 seems the best bet at this point. I'm holding off on the dvd until I make the decision on the tv. Might go to the plasma unit if I can't get the unit painted. Hope all goes well in your set up and viewing.
No, I did not buy the stand. I have an entertainment center and am currently reinforcing the shelves to hold the 265 lb. Sony TV. It will just fit with one inch left on the sides and back. I hear that Sony is coming our with a replacement for their 9000ES DVD/SACD player. The new player with have five channel SACD. I definitely want progressive scan with this new TV. I want a 50" plasma... but too expensive.I live in a high rise building in Chicago. We are getting a new cable service with Direct TV capability. Wish me luck. Thanks for your response.
