I was given a sony TV KDS60-A2000 That isnt showing very well. Not sure what the problem is. Any TV repair men out there or know of a good place to go? Would like it done soon to have 2 large TVs at my super bowl party.

Define a little more clearly what you mean by "not showing well". Its an LCD rear projection TV so it could be a dying bulb, or possibly dust has gotten into it to make it cloudy (its a 10 year old TV...probably wouldn't hurt to clean it up anyway). Circuitry wise LCD projection TV's are pretty reliable. -
Well, I just hooked it up to see and everything looks green. Has a grenn tint. Only about 2 inches on each side look good, the rest looks greenish. Is that a sign of a bad bulb?Originally posted by MarisaComment

Just found it, looks to be a common problem with the optical block. Extended warranty expired last summer and shows cost to be about $900.00 Not worth it.Originally posted by MarisaComment

Bulbs will only make the picture dim, not change color. Green picture is definitely an Optical block.Originally posted by red89notch View Post
You may still give Sony a call to see if they will give you a concession. stranger things have happened and the worst thing they can say is no. It is a very common problem with their LCD projection units.
Even if they don't fix it, they may offer you a new unit at a discounted price - assuming the original owner didn't already take the discount from Sony.
Oh, and ram57ta - the TV is only ~5 yrs old.
