You're probably a bit young to remember the Sony commercials that implied they "were" high class sets. One had an athlete showing off his crib, saying "This is where I keep my World Series trophy, my Golden Glove award, and.......this is where I keep my Sony"

They had a few like that, depending on what program they were associated with. We had a 19" Sony at the time (with the tuner below the CRT), and I remember my brother thinking we were S**T hot for having it.


Cheers,
