Hi all
Having just read zAndy1's comments about his brand new buzzing Toshiba, i was interested in how widespread this problem is? I took delivery of my brand new 42" Panny W5 last week, Prog scanning through my Arcam 88+ i can honestly say that i have never ever seen images like it...i am however concerned about the constant buzzing noise eminating from the panel.
I noticed the noise from the very first time i switched the panel on, and it really is starting to bug me now. Watching the screen late at night at a lower volume the buzzing is ever present and its worse now because im tuned into it...my brother came over to see the screen at the weekend and i hadnt said a word to him but it wasnt long before he commented on its buzzing also.
Obviously, when running a fully charged 5.1 DTS soundtrack its nowhere to be heard but in reality thats gonna be a couple of times a week, the majority of time is spent watching normal TV at a sociable level in the lounge.
I have heard that its pot luck, you may get a noisey one, you may not (not all the power supplies are the same) but as zAndy1 commented these displays are sold as "silent operation" - mine definitily is not.
Bearing in mind that i have a 100% pixel perfect screen, do i risk an exchange??. Sounds like the chaps at NexNix came up trumps with Andys....people with overly buzzy plamsa screens please let me know what you did, have you put up with it and gotten used to it now ir did you ask for an exchage??
