I am thinking about getting a Sony Wega 36"

Costco carries KV36FS17 for $1250.

Some said to get KV36FV27 instead, but the price is $400-500 higher in other stores.

Is it worth it for getting FV27?? Our main purpose of this tv is to see DVDs..

thanks for opinions

ps. if you think I should get other brand, please advise. I am open to any option. my price range is less than $1500 out the door.

The 36FV27 is a good set, but take a look at the Panasonic Tau (flat) sets and maybe the new Toshiba sets, also flat. Cheaper and usually more feature rich.


I have the FV27, got Sears to Pricematch it plus had a 10% discount :) It's a nice set, DVD's look great with the v-compression feature. Although the new flat Toshiba and Panasonic sets have this feature too.
