I am mad as hell, I bought this TV for close to $3000.00, 4 years ago and I have to replace the lamp for the 2nd time. If I would have know that I would have to replace this lamp every 2 years I would have never bought this TV.. You would think that if you spent this kind of money on a tv, It would last more than 2 years. Is anyone having the same problem that I am? I am going to get rid of this piece of sh*# and get a TV that I dont have to buy anymore lamps...Can anyone tell me what they think is good TV at a good price and one that I dont have to replace any lamps? Thanks..... |

This link gives you tips on how to extend the lamps lifespan, this might help out during your search for a new TV, the link is: http://www.fixyourdlp.com/blog/2007/04/07/how-to-extend-the-life-of-your-dlp-lco s-sxrd-hd-ila-or-lcd-tv-lamp-intuitive-guide/ I hope this helps, take care |
