The Four Steps to a Full HD Experience:
Set, Sound, Source, and Setup
Along with your BRAVIA TV set, a complete HD system requires an HD sound system, a
source of HD content, and proper setup connection with components such as your HD cable
or satellite box.
You must get HD programming to experience the stunning detail of HDTV.
The quality of the image you see on your BRAVIA can only be as high as the quality of the
signal it is displaying. This chart shows the different signal types and how to access them.

Customize Sound and Picture Quality
You can choose optimum sound and picture settings to match the content you are displaying
on your TV:
■
Press HOME on your remote control to display the XMB ™ and select Picture or Sound
from the Settings menu. Choose the appropriate setting for your content.
■
Use the OPTIONS button to quickly access Picture Adjustments and Sound
Adjustments.
■
Refer to your Operating Instructions Manual for more information.
Adjust Screen Shape and Aspect Ratio
High-Definition and Standard-Definition signals are transmitted with different aspect ratios
(the width-to-height shape of the image). Most HD signals use a widescreen aspect ratio of
16:9. Most SD signals use a boxy 4:3 aspect ratio. The 16:9 aspect ratio looks perfect on your
BRAVIA, but a 4:3 image may need to be adjusted to better fill the wide screen of your
BRAVIA.
■
Adjust your TV so boxy 4:3 images are automatically re-configured (zoomed or
stretched) to fit the wide TV screen; OR
■
Watch SD content in its original, boxy format with wide black bars surrounding the
image to fill in unused space (for example, you may prefer to watch an old classic movie
in its original 4:3 format, not reconfigured for a wide screen).
■
Press WIDE on your remote control. Your TV will display available wide modes for the
current signal. Select the Wide Mode setting of your preference.
