Sony KDF-E42A10 42-Inch LCD Rear Projection Television
Optical Assembly
I agree with all the reveiws that this TV produces an excellent picture; when it works right.  We purchased a Sony KDF42WE65, this is not the same as the KDFE42A10. However the repair shop said that all Sony rear projection LCD's use the same optical assembly. Our optical assembly went bad after 13 months. After over $1,100 in parts/repairs, it still does not produce a balanced color picture.  Sony makes excellent products but no longer should get a \\"free pass\\" on quality. Evaluate other manufactures and consider purchasing an extended warranty. LCD rear projection technology produces a wonderful display, but is still a relatively new.
