    Good Points: Nice picture.

    Bad Points: -Lamp -Picture and Sound fade in and out

    General comments: I can't tell you how many problems we've had with the Sony KF-42WE610. I agree with an earlier review "a big, heavy paperweight". My light burned out again and now the sound isn't working. Unfortunately the warranty just ran out (it's been a year and 2 months) and I'm going to have to pay for it!

    I purchased my Sony KF-42WE610 4 months ago. I'm happy with the picutre and the price was right. I'm not happy with the popping sound and I don't know how to fix it yet.

    I swore I would never buy another big screen no matter who made it and against my better judgement I did it anyway. I would have been much happier with a CRT tube than this piece of rubbish. Maybe a HD tuner will improve the picture quality, but I'm on Dish Network for crying out loud and you think that it would be crystal clear.

    I've had the Sony Grand Wega for about 3-4 months with no problem with the bulb going bad. I am very happy with the sound and picture and I think it presents a great value compared to the plasmas and direct view LCDs.

    I've had this Sony KF42WE610 Rear Projection Television for 3 months and the bulb has blown already. I found out at Circuit City that this is a well known issue internally at Sony. I was told that Circuit City has had over 80,000 complaints to date. Sony is sending me a new bulb at No-Charge but at $200 each I'll be spending $800 per year in bulbs after the 1 year warranty runs out. I want a new but different model. The reviews I've read so far say this model is Sony's YUGO!!!!!

    When this Sony KF42WE610 Rear projection television works, it's fantastic. However, the bulb/power failure problem (mine started collapsing on day 3 after delivery) renders the set a rather large, expensive paperweight. It would be interesting if Sony actually provided the failure rate stats to its customers (hah!). The tech repair people are fully aware of the problem, and advised me they have a "mod" to fix it. Why would Sony put out a "mod" if they didn't perceive there was an endemic pro ...

    It's defective! The lamp on the Sony KF42WE610 blew out in 3 weeks. It was allegedly fixed, then blew out again 3 weeks later. The repair nightmare (which is ongoing) is a whole other story. Sony even had the tech come back to replace some boards and transistors because of a product defect--these apparently caused the lamp to arc everytime it was turned on and led to its early demise. Each time it blows out I have to wait a week for a repair appointment. I've read other reviews detailing the sam ...
