CNET Review
The Good: Can produce deep blacks with excellent shadow detail; can resolve every line of 1080 resolution sources; compact design with bottom-mounted speakers; incredible amounts of picture control; ample connectivity with dual 1080p-compatible HDMI inputs, three component-video inputs and a PC input.
The Bad: Somewhat expensive; inaccurate primary colors; no picture-in-picture; disappointing VGA connection.
The Bottom Line: Although more costly than its DLP competition, the excellent picture quality of Sony's KDS-60A2000 will be worth the difference to most viewers.

Part number: KDS-60A2000
