HLN5065W Problem - Input Please
|
New member Username: Dsp166Post Number: 1 Registered: Mar-07 | Hello Everyone, This is an amazing forum and I've learned alot from the posts. I have a problem that I don't know if it is similar to the ones already described on the forum. I'm a first time DLP owner (I recently acquired a Samsung HLN5065W from someone through an exchange - def. out of warranty and no receipt). I wasn't aware of any issues and the DLP fired up fine, no noise issues and I only gave it a quick look on a test screen with primarily solid colors (big mistake). When I got home to hook up my DVD and PC, I realized the colors are off. They are off sort of like a PC monitor that only displays a limited color palette of 256 or 16K color. It is most apparent with contrast dark/light regions. The colors do not appear completely accurate either, i.e. Red is slightly Orange tinted. I am hoping it is only a bulb replacement (current one says around 7,500 hrs) and not a color wheel or worse yet, the light engine or DMD. I am including a pic of the screen; hopefully it will be obvious to those who are familiar with this type of problem. Can FYI or others familiar with this please help? Thanks in advance.  |

I don't know if you have a lamp problem or not, but if you do, I would highly recommend you getting a replacement lamp from disccount-merchant.com Ordered my lamp on Monday and it got here today! Installed it and everything is perfect. I actually think I have a better picture now ;) I got my lamp here: http://www.discount-merchant.com/Samsung-HLM437W1X-OEM-Replacement-LAMP-BULB-p/s amsung-bp96-00826a-lamp.htm&Click=1466 Good luck Victor!
