Summary: Good bang for buck tv
Review: I got a great deal on the TV so buying it wasn't really a tough decision. I've only had it a few days, and so far I'm happy with the purchase. I have one downfall to point out though -> the blacks and greys of the picture seem really grainy on most channels and some of the DVD's I've tried. Could be I've just gotten used to my sony monitor's resolution.

Summary: nice tv
Review: i got this tv a week ago. it's great, but may be too small for my tastes. i am waiting for the 32fs100 to be available.
looks clearer than i thought it would be from the display models, may be from digital cable. also, when things scroll on the bottom of the screen, seems to be almost wavy, may be because it is flat or i am looking too hard, not sure. only one s and component input. heavy. otherwise awesome

Summary: Great Value for the Money
Review: I highly recommend this TV. It may be a little more pricey than equivalently equipped televisions from other manufacturers but the Sony quality shines through. The picture is fabulous and even without a home theater set up the sound is great. I spent the extra money for good cables and hooked my DVD player up through the component Video and the picture is great. It is almost like seeing "The Fellowship of the Ring" in the Theater. Also the 16:9 aspect ratio is great for those items that aren't in Widescreen format. It gives them a real widescreen feel. All in all this is the best electronics purchase I have made in years.

Summary: Annoying high-pitched noise
Review: I just bought the Sony KV-27FS100 on Saturday after spending a couple of weeks researching other flatscreen TVs. In the end, it came down to this Sony model and the Toshiba 27AF43. I opted for the Sony since I love my 32" Sony XBR and I really wanted the 16:9 vertical compression mode for watching anamorphic DVDs.Unfortunately, my excitement for this unit was short lived. After physically struggling with the setup (unit weighs around 100 lbs and is too big to move solo), and hooking it up to my digital cable, I powered on the set. Although the picture is great, there was a constant, annoying, fairly loud high pitched noise coming from the set. I turned down the volume, removed all the inputs, tried different power outlets, even turned off the TV's speakers and the sound remained. After searching the web for "sony high pitched noise" I found other complaints about this same problem. The TV is unwatchable for me at this point, I can't even stand having it on for more than a few minutes (might be a good thing long term :) A second problem is bad geometry at the bottom of the screen. When my digital cable viewing guide is up, you can clearly see that the bottom edge of the menu -- which should be parallel with the bottom of the screen -- slopes up from left to right. I could live with this, but the high pitched whine is unbearable. The unit is going back tomorrow. I'll try a couple other units to see if the problem is just with my set, but will likely go with the Toshiba since the vertical compression wasn't as big a deal as I thought it would be.

Summary: Break out the service manual to bring this unit up to speed
Review: I like a lot of the features about this unit, but folks interested in a really good picture will want to lower the red push and fix the 16:9 oversqueeze problem. To do these, you'll need a service manual (not the users manual you received with the unit). Not sure how much they are, haven't bought mine yet. There's a few places on the web that talk about how to correct these two problems, but they are for the previous WEGAs not the FS100 and FS120.
I have not heard the high-pitched whine, but I don't hear so well anyway. It's pretty heavy (my specs said just a few ounces shy of 100 pounds), but that doesn't matter to me, I don't lug it around from room to room ;).

Summary: Good For the price
Review: I own this TV and it has all the features of a Sony latest models with the exception of WOW sound and PIP. With the price difference of this TV with the latest model you can buy a good music system. The quality of the picture is good. I hope this helps.

Summary: Almost Perfect
Review: I own two 27" Sony Wega TVs. The first one that I bought a couple of years ago is excellent. It is the higher end model with all the bells and whistles (PIP etc).
The other one (KV27FS100) I bought last month and am somewhat disappointed with it. There is a distortion at the bottom of the screen. When I view my Satellite TV guide, there is a slope that goes from left to right. Also, if there is a banner that scrolls accross the bottom of the screen (like the one on the news networks), it appears all squigley and distorted.
That problem did not arise on my first 27" Wega. I am not sure if it is a inconsistency in the manufacturing or if the quality control is just poor.
This problem withstanding, the features on this model are easy to use and the remote is wonderful. I would still recommend the WEGA, but just wanted to caution future comsumers of the picture problem (which appears in a couple of other reviews on Amazon).

Summary: GREAT WHEN IT WORKS
Review: I purchased mine 9 months ago and it worked perfectly for 7 months. Of course, now that it's out of warranty all sorts of problems have arisen. Primarily, it has a mind of it's own. While watching a program, the set tries to re-set itself and jumps from input to input for no reason whatsoever. I've read the manual four times and have contacted Sony all to no avail. Just have have a service tech come to my home is $70. Tack on what will surely be several hundred dollars for the repair (with no assurance that the problem will go away without 4 more visits, if at all) and I've decided to simply throw a $500 set in the garbage. For what it's worth, the picture on this set is fantastic. Especially with a DVD and component cables. I just think that for $500 I should have gotten a set with a warranty a lot longer than 90 days for labor. Never again will I touch a Sony product. I'm on my way to buy a Toshiba this afternoon. Buy this piece of junk at your own risk.

Summary: A Really Great TV
Review: I purchased the Sony 27" flat screen about two months ago, and I am very impressed with it. The picture quality is excellent and the sound is great. Though it is a bit more pricey than other 27" tv's, it is made by Sony, which makes the best quality products.

Summary: nothing better
Review: i tried really hard to find something better. I didn't want to buy this set as I would be paying a premium for the Sony name (as opposed to paying for quality and features). I stood in front of numerous TV's at the local store trying to get the Toshiba and Samsung to have the same picture, and the Sony beat them hands down. As soon as this set went on sale, I snatched it up.
