User Submitted Sony KDF-E50A10 50-Inch LCD Rear Projection Television Reviews Date: 2009-04-23 Defective optic blocks after 3 years. DO NOT BUY USED! My TV has just failed after only 3 1/2 years. there are countless reports of other customers with the same problem. Sony extended the warranty on other RPTV LCDs made around the same time, but they have not done so for this model. Avoid at all costs. 100% failure rate. Date: 2008-12-21 $800 Optical Block Replacement - Beware! I have a Sony 50" KDF-E50A10 set that is 2 1/2 years old - the optical block, like 1000's of other Sony LCD large screen Grand Wega sets, has gone bad - There was a class action suit filed against SONY for 2 models that forced them to extended warranties and replacement - many more of their late model sets that are out of warranty have this same "blotchy" color distortion problem that will cost $800+ to repair - SONY is doing nothing about them because these models weren't included in the suit settlement. Why won't SONY address this disgrace to their quality reputation? - you'll have to ask them or go online to read the complaints from SONY customers about the defective optical blocks- I suggest you review the threads before buy a SONY set Date: 2008-11-14 DON'T BUY IT I have had this model for a little under 2 years. The Optical Block has gone bad. Even though Sony has settled at least one class action law suit regarding the defective piece of equipment, they have only included specific models. This one is not included, even though the internet is loaded with people with this exact model having the same "blue haze" issue. Cost just quoted to me to fix...$1200. And, I just replaced the light bulb for another $200. Sony just keeps telling me I am out of luck. I will never buy another Sony product as long as I live. Date: 2008-11-01 DO NOT BUY THIS TV!!! IT WILL GO BAD WITHIN 2 YEARS!! This television does have some great capabilities and wonderful picture... that is... until 2 years go by and it's no longer under warranty. Then the B Block goes bad. $800-1000 to fix it and Sony will not issue a recall! SEARCH KDF-E50A10 B Block on you're favorite search engine, mine is not the only one. RESEARCH before you buy. Please. Date: 2008-09-03 After 2 1/2 years -- a LEMON of a TV This TV only has given me 30 months of loyal service. IN the past couple of weeks multicolored small square boxes have appeared in 4 lines across the center in standard resolutions and a multicolored line in HD resolutions. Many problems have been reported on the Internet about this model line of TV, with a general nonchalance attitude on the issues from Sony. I would avoid this TV until Sony offers free repairs -- which will not occur until the matter is heard in a court.
