Hello everybody, sorry if this has been discussed before, I did do a search and have read a few articles and visited the KV TWEAK site but I could still do with some more info.
I purchased a Sony KV 32FX65 and have recently noticed some purity problems on the set. Just the normal type, yellow/brown darker than white patches on a pure white screen down most of the right hand side and in the left hand corners. I always power off the set at night and dont use standby, there are only magnetically shielded speakers around the set.
The TV is sat very close to a radiator and I have read and been told that the magnetic field from this is whats causing the said problems. Unfortunately I cannot move the set away from the radiator (small house and were not really willing to arrange the whole house just around the tv). Does this mean that I must live with this problem for good and do you think that it will gradually get worse and/or cause any permanent damage? Do radiators really make that much difference or is it an easy get out for unwilling dealers to admit problems? Do you think there is any point in getting a Sony technician to degauss the set with his magic wand? With the radiator still in the way Im not sure a proper degauss would help, what do you think?
I have tried other tv sets in the house and these all suffer from the same problem (to varying extents) when near a radiator or not. Is this just the Earths magnetic field mucking up my picture? Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Billy
