You should check Sony specs for the model. I can tell you this, last
year before I bought my Sony 46" Bravia, my main TV which was an older
heavy duty NAD 26" monitor started to get flaky. So I moved it to the
bedroom and we bought a cheap used Toshiba 35" from a moving sale. That
TV did feel like 500LBs! I rented a furniture dolly to move it from the
car to the lanai and then enlisted a neighbor to help me lift it onto
the stand in the house. After getting the new set, we moved it again,
enlsiting another neighbor to help us lower it to the floor onto a piece
of carpet. My son, wife and I then slid it on the floorand lifted onto
the stand in the bedroom and it was unbearably heavy. Unless you are
getting a real baragain, I would suggest looking at the deals for LCD
and plazma TV's. I really don't know what I am going to do to get this
old beast out of the house when I replace it. I am not going to further
burden my neighbors with this!

I'm looking at buying a flat screen CRT type TV used on Craig's list. You
can get new ones for a couple hundred bucks, now that everyone's flocking to
flat panels. One listing
http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/ele/281025797.html claims the 32"
Trinitron Wega weighs "nearly 500 lbs". While I find this hard to believe,
it makes picking up/carrying such a set up the 2 flights of stairs out of
the question. Are these sets REALLY that heavy???

Thanks
