I've had my Sony KDF-E50A10 (50" LCD RPTV) for about 3 years. For about a month or so the picture had been getting dimmer. This weekend the screen went black and the was a popping sound inside the TV.
Yep, the bulb blew.
I did a bit of research and found that no one had a bulb in stock locally. I checked online and the best OE Sony XL-2400 bulb assembly was about $150.
I ultimately chose one from Ebay from someone with a great rating in TN. $119 shipped! I'm also getting $30 cashback via the Microsoft cashback program. It should be here Thursday. I can't wait.
Maybe I should have bought two ...
