Trev, should have mentioned that I had already been there, which really doesn't explain very much.

Had a go with AskMe toooo.

Gurus on here seem to know more.

CX520's I think are the ones prone to exploding !!.

Actually neither of them have wifi, one can support it with the extra wifi dongle. :D
The EX500 doesn't have network capabilities at all as far as I can tell while the CX520 does have ethernet built in.
The EX500 does have the 100Hz screen other than that I would say the CX520 is the better screen.

1245033 2011-11-24 06:36:00 Thanks guys. friends paid $1,200.00 for their EX500 and DSE has the CX520 down to $777.00 from $1.099.00.

Someone on here said the Bravia 40" was prone to blowing up !!. Can't find the post.

1245035 2011-11-24 07:39:00 Depends what model you have. My 40" Bravia is nearly 4 years old and going strong. Mine was not one of the models prone to blowing up.

1245036 2011-11-24 07:53:00 I sell them: EX500 is now an old model, however it is a 100Hz the CX520 is a 2011 entry level model and is 50Hz.
Neither have wifi built in. You cannot connect to the net at all with a EX500 but you can with the CX520.

IMHO the EX500 has the better picture, but it lacks internet connectivity and the benefits from it. However 100Hz is a big factor to consider, because motion blur is a picture killer
