Sony BRAVIA VPL-VW40 Home Theater Projector Review

By Bill Livolsi (projectorcentral.com)

As you can see, the Sony VPL-VW40 fits nicely within the current lineup of 1080p projectors. It lacks the extreme lumen output or placement flexibility of the AE2000 or 1080 UB, but compensates with a sharper picture and superior black. Even then, it ...

Sony VPL-VW40

By Alex Jennings (cnet.co.uk)

The Sony VPL-VW40 projector impresses us in its clarity and precision of its pictures. It truly beats anything else in its class and its price tag isn't as shocking as some projectors on the market. Plus, its total freedom from technology noise could ...

Phenomenal. Compared to a 52XBR5, it bests it in just about everything minus that 120hz motionflow the xbr5 has. Great price, much quieter than my PS3 and/or my xbox 360, for it is just about inaudible. Colors do need some tweaking out of the box. I would...

Manufacturer's Description

Full 1080p high definition with three SXRD micro-display panels for the ultimate home theater experience is what you get with the VPL-VW40 1080p home theater front projector.
