I'm still deciding between the Z and the XBR9....I saw them side by side at BB and the picture on both was astounding, couldn't tell much of a difference between the two, other than the prices.

but congrats on your XBR9....I want one so bad. Still saving up all my pennies.

steve1971 · 06-09-2009, 11:03 PM

The XBR9 will be my next tv. Bank on it. Congrats to you though. Your one lucky guy.

If you don't mind, how much did you pay for it? It can be a ballpark if you don't want to say exactly.

eyekyu · 06-10-2009, 12:32 AM

I paid 4100 Canadian ,I checked around at the stores ,standard price,I could have done better on line but I am leary of buying stuff like this over the internet.

Bluubyu · 06-10-2009, 03:03 PM

Congrats on the purchase. Welcome to the world of awesome tv's.

Congrats!!! The XBR9 is a bad @$$ display!

Semp1 · 06-10-2009, 05:31 PM

Best buy has it for lees than 3,000 right now but you can get it even less if you know where to look... I'm personally waiting on the xbr10 you know it'll be out before Christmas and I want a 55 inch..but congrats on a great set...you'll enjoy it...Sony makes the best...

The salesman at Sony said Iron Man was the best Bluray yet to display the screen and after watching it,I believe it.

kaliraver · 06-10-2009, 06:25 PM
