I'm buying the new Sony Wega KV36XBR400 next week. What Sony stand is compatible with this model? Is it the same stand that was available for the 36XBR250? Does the 2 TVs have the same dimension/weight?

I really appreciate all of the feedback in this forum. Been following the comments about the XBR400, and was convinced this is the TV for me at this point.

Thanks to all!

Fortunately (or unfortunately) there's a new stand for the 36XBR400. It's model no. SU36XBR4A and it's a little different in design versus the one for the XBR250. They changed the footprint on the TV, so the old one won't work. Also, people were apparently resting the TV (when installing or moving) on the corner of the stand and it was cracking the wood (hey, pressure treated fiber only goes so far). They designed the new one so there's no way to severely damage the stand when resting the TV, plus there are plastic breakaways on either side of the stand. Sounds cheap, but I just saw it last night and it looks great.

By the way, I was blown away by the overall quality of the set (vs the XBR250). I had a check written for the 250 the day before the 400 was announced late spring. I'm sooooo glad I waited. The blacks on the screen are so black, that during a scene change the set looks like it's off. The colors are so much more vivid, and the line doubling doesn't distort the picture as it does in some HDTV- ready rear projection screens. Sorry TW40X81 owners (Geoff?). Delivery is just days away........

My stand is literally on its last leg. any of the current stands work for my now somewhat ancient 36" xbr 250?
