Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR9
The XBR9 series is actually the replacement for the XBR6 Bravia TVs from 2008/2009. Confusingly, the XBR8 series is Sony's LED LCD with local dimming and the highest feature set and price point of the Sony TVs on the market today. Upgrades in the XBR9 from the XBR6 are 240Hz rate compared with the previous 120Hz rate and an upgrade in the Bravia Video processing Engine to 3rd edition. Aesthetics were also changed to give the TV a streamlined look. We took a hard look at the picture quality performance and features of this new XBR. See our results below.
