Sony SDM-S75AB

By admin on April 21st, 2009

Sony deserves praise for the SDM-S75AB’s design. Though you can’t adjust the height, the screen’s bottom edge is fixed 5.75 inches above the surface of the desk, which is a good height for most people. The screen is exceptionally stable on its circular 9-inch base. You can tilt it back 30 degrees and forward 5 degrees, and the SDM-S75AB is supposed to swivel from side to side, though the lazy-Susan device under our test system’s base didn’t turn smoothly.

The monitor comes with an analog signal cable and a pass-through audio cable to ferry tunes from your computer to the monitor’s headphone jack. The monitor’s design allows you to screw the signal cable into its port without breaking your fingernails; you can also thread cables through a large hole in the neck to keep them out of the way.

The Sony SDM-S75AB doesn’t offer much versatility or many multimedia features, but its text performance and basic design make it well suited to office work. However, you can find better options.
