The best customer reviews 20 of 23 people found this review helpful. Fixed audio problem by Christy Sony has solved the problems typical of flat KDL40EX620 sound with your model. We bought a 40 "flat screen TV for a couple weeks ago and had to return because of poor sound quality. After much internet searching I found this Sony model, which indicated that it had improved the sound. It is no exaggeration! Sound quality is crisp, clear and good in every way. If you are shopping for a 40 "flat screen TV and be sure to check it out! October 10 people found this review helpful. In pictures: The picture quality is excellent RW, but I had some problems with distorted sound / distorted sound and image and not (LIP movement and voice) in sync. This has happened 2-3 times in the past month, and appears only when you watch streaming video from the Internet. Cycling power to solve problems. Hopefully Sony is working on a patch.... Main reason for selecting this model was that it would fit into the space available. All other brands/models would only allow up to a 37". While I didn't think streaming video was a feature I would use, I watch this more than Dish. The built in speakers provide good sound quality (tone, volume), relative to speaker size, and the 14' x 18' room size. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Great TV experience By buyer bill The Sony Bravia KDLEX640 is exactly what we wanted for our small living room. The digital channels available (such as 10.1) provide a stunning picture that looks almost 3-D. Watching golf or tennis, the 120 Hz refresh rate provides crisp detailed views of fast moving objects . The dozen or more input ports provide for many types of auxiliary devices. We have a DVD player, a VCR tape deck and a Roku working on ours. I suspect this TV could do the streaming without the Roku, but I haven't pursued it. It can also serve as a PC monitor, I found an excellent sound system a bit lacking, so I have my Harman / Kardon speakers on my iMac and the problem solved. Besides the sound (which is actually OK without the equipment) I find no fault in the set. It's exactly what we expected and more. See all 10 reviews ....
