I have this Sony and another 32" Sony Tritron and they both don't work. The 60" has been worked on once and 1 bulb replaced and it popped and now it needs another bulb. Also has a blue shaded area that start on the bottom and now it about 3 or 4 inches up the left side. I was always told that Sony was the best but these 2 have been the worse t.v.'s that I have ever owned so I went and bought a LG which I like alot better. I also have a Sony VHS and DVD all in one and after about a year it is down. You can expect Sony products to last about 2 years before something goes wrong with them. (Stay Away Form Sony).
