Top-Notch Video Performance
The XBR KDL-40XBR4 is a 1080p television with a full 1920 x 1080 resolution, the highest resolution available for the sharpest, clearest picture. The KDL-40XBR uses the most recent HDMI 1.3 interface, which houses both audio and video signals in one connector and has the bandwidth to support the data needed for the high resolution. Sony's Bravia Engine Pro Full Digital Video Processor upconverts all video signals to 1080p 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-40XBR 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 also supports the new x.v.Color standard, which dramatically increases the available color space. The end result is a picture that is so detailed, colorful, and vibrant, you'd have a hard time distinguishing it from real life.
The KDL-40XBR4 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, and five analog audio inputs. Even with a collection of legacy components, you shouldn't have a problem connecting to the KDL-40XBR4.
Stunning Looks
The KDL-40XBR4 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-40XBR4 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-40XBR4 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.
More Than Just a Television
Because more and more people expect to view photos on their HDTVs, Sony developed a Photo TV HD mode that optimally sets the sharpness, gradation, and color to make digital photos look like printed photography.
The KDL-40XBR4 is backed by a 1-year limited warranty for parts and labor.

Customer Reviews:
Almost Perfect Picture.......2007-12-16 Like design, colors and picture. Well worth paying little more. Was considering 42" Sharp, but glad got this one. 40" is just a perfect size for a medium room.
Yes, it does have Closed Captioning.......2007-12-09 After two years of research, we finally bought the Sony Bravia 4. Superb is an understatement. Picture quality and screen colors are excellent! Our only problem, initially, was getting Closed Captioning, because the manuals for the TV as well as Direct TV were not clear. After an email to Sony revealed that we needed to set CC on a "set-top box," we called Direct TV. All we had to do was to go into the menu, choose Settings, Display, and Captions. Then you can make choices on color of background, etc. It was that simple. Enjoy your top-of-the-line television!
Beautiful TV for your living room........2007-11-29 After lots of research, decided to go Hi-Def with this Sony offering. Very happy with purchase. Amazon had great price, free shipping, and the in house set up was great. Tuned the pictures with setting I found from AVS forums. Search for it online, they make all the difference. The picture quality is stunning off of Blu-Ray or digital cable. Sound is great, don't need surround sound. And it is a good size but not huge. Any bigger and I think it would overwhelm the average size living room but this is perfect. And it looks good even shut off. While the price is higher then other tv's this size it is worth every penny. Spend the extra change, this is the best tv you can get.
One Excellent HDTV and Overall Experience!!!.......2007-11-28 I purchased the 40" XBR4 about 3 weeks ago. I have purchased numerous items from Amazon, but was always a bit hesitant about a purchase of this magnitude.
The delivery experience:
Well folks...I must say that I'm impressed with Amazon and of course the television itself. First of all, it only took 4 working days for the delivery, the guys brought in the TV and set it up to ensure it arrived intact, and hauled off the box...way cool!
The television:
I currently only have standard cable, but somehow this TV has detected (to my delight) about 35 digital stations, and around 8-9 HD stations. Needless to say, the XBR4 will pop your eyes out watching High-Def channels. The standard def channels actually look surprisingly good as well. I was a bit skeptical about how good the SD channels would look, but I discovered that the XBR4 displays them quite well. The 120Hz is worth every penny! I've watched a boat-load of football games and other sporting events and never noticed any of the pixellation present with 60Hz TV's. Sound quality...no matter what broadcast you're watching, the sound is superior to any other TV I've heard. And there are mumerous settings for those of us who enjoy customizing everything (picture, sound, etc.).
DVD Component interfacing:
I must say the the standard DVD's I have look surprisingly good as well using the standard component connection. But my DVD burner has a 1080i upconvert feature, so I hooked it up using HDMI. Again, looks pretty darn close to the Blue-Rays I saw in the stores. (Of course it's tempting to run out and buy a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD to take full advantage though!!).
Bottom line...don't hesitate. I don't believe you'll find a better set (or a better experience all-in-all) with this purchase!!!
I'm glad I spent the extra money..........2007-11-23 I spent a bunch of time researching various brands and models of TVs with similar specs (1080p, 40"-42", etc) and found a lot of stuff that was pretty good. But I kept finding myself drawn to this model. When I visited various stores, the picture quality and the styling of this TV kept catching my eye. I struggled with the idea of paying the higher cost for this TV, wondering whether it was worth it. I am very glad I went for it.
It looks great in my living room. The picture quality is outstanding - very clear. The blacks are dark. Operating the menu system is straightforward. Plenty of connection options. I've got an OTA (over the air) HD antenna connected directly to the TV as well as to my TiVo Series 3 and I'm in TV-watching heaven. I have no noticable fan noise comimg from TV unless I hold my ear to the back of the TV. Standard definition TV looks very pixilated, but that's true to some degree with all HD TVs.
Ordered on a Wednesday and was told delivery could take one to two weeks. It arrived four days later that Sunday! Handled by Eagle and they did a fine job. They brought the TV up (one flight of stairs) took it out of the box, placed it on the TV stand and tested that it worked.
