Hey guys I just received my new toy from sony and boy is it awesome. I opted for the 17” widescreen to match my S270. Go here to see specifics http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/SY_DisplayProductInformation-Start?ProductSKU=MFMHT75W&Dept=tv&CategoryName=tv_lcd
This monitor is great it has both DVI and Analog inputs, as well as Componenet and Composite with S-Video and lastly UHF/VHF. It suuports every mode you can through at it, the only thing it is lacking is a terrestrial turner. A set top box will do the trick though for over the air broadcasting.
One other gripe I have is the picture in picture function while it works, it can only be used when the main display is of the PC, so no xbox on the full screen and the PC on the pip. Also you can’t freely change between pip signals via a simple button push as you would on a normal TV, you have to access the menu and then choose which input to display.
The build quality is extremely impressive this beasts ways in at about 20 lbs. Everything seems just right about it all the hookups are located in easy locations. The stand is spring loaded for easy tilting, you can tilt it back and forth with 2 fingers. Quite nice indeed. The speakers sound fantastic as well. I know some will think that 2 3watt speakers and 1 5watt sub wont output much, but to me it sounds incredible.
*I have some pictures of it with my setup, but I’m not sure how to post them here unfortunatly.
*If you have any questions about it at all let me know. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some pic up soon.
Figured it out. :D
Here is one next to My S, displaying OutRun2.
And another showing the pip mode.
Let me know if you guys have questions or want more pictures.
