Reasons for reviewing
This really is an excellent, stylish and eye catching television and have great pleasure watching it in my mothers new cinema room she has created. It is really in a league of it's own. Picture wise, I think it outclasses any RPTV on the market right now. The HD on this is amazing and we watched a BLU Ray on it last weekend and it was incrediable. My mother can also connect this to her computer through the HDMI input and that looks amazing as well. This Sony Wega at my Mothers is hooked up to a surround sound system which makes it even more outstanding. It really has the picture quality of a LCD and a plasma, but costs a lot less. I know I am meant to own a product to write a review, but I use this a few times a week in my Mothers house and I really want to tell everyone how great it is.

This Sony wega rear projection television my Mother owns, has full HD1080p picture quality, which is delivered quite perfectly, within a very thin and compact and very stylish looking enclosure. The Grand WEGA rear projection HDTV television is also equipped with the latest Engine system, which really reduces signal distortion to provide you with the best picture there possible is. And you're fully connected also with dual HDMI (1080p capability) and front component input (1080i). You can also add PC inputs and SRS TruSurround XT audio enhancement technology like my Father has and you can see how watching television on the KDS-55A2020 is more than an event, it's an experience and an amazing one at that.

The advanced Iris on this television is a great and very unique Sony function, which has been carefully manufactured to improve the brightness level and contrast on this a lot, especially on darker scenes in movies etc and this really works very well. It is accessed inside the Picture Menu on the television and offers 2 automatic settings and 5 manual settings. Auto 1 and Auto 2 are dynamic adjustment levels, that automatically open and close the iris according to the gamma levels of the picture on your screen.

Well I read the tech stuff in the booklet enclosed in the box but this really is a great television in every single department. It makes my televisions I have look out of date and they are only a few years old. Everything on this television is really quite easy to use. The remote is great and is easy to navigate around with.

I have watched DVDs, satellite television and other regular channels on this television and goodness they are crystal clear. It really is very noticeable when you watch this television. The picture and color quality is very vibrant and everything looks so natural. It really is a luxury using and watching this television. The sound quality is something else also. It really has great surround sound and its perfect also and even the music coming out of this television is incredible. Its prefect in every single way. I really am buying one when my breaks down.

Overall Opinion
Overall I would highly recommend this television to all. It is outstanding delivering excellent picture quality from every room angle. This is a must have television and I give it 10 out of 10. I really am buying one of these as I look forward to my few visits a week to my Mothers, just to watch this television. It really looks great, sounds amazing and the picture quality is unlike any television on the market. The price is coming down also which is excellent. The best television I have ever watched before and I highly recommend it to everyone.
