Sony KDFEA20 vs. XS955?

Chue New member Username: Drtrouble Post Number: 2 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Monday, October 31, 2005 - 16:25 GMT Which one is the better of the two? I think the XS955 is the older of the two but as I look, it's still more expensive. What's the difference and which would you recommend? Any major problems with either one?
