Sony KDS 55A2020 rear projection LCD

My Sony rear projection LCD TV seems to have a bit of a hot spot in the center of the screen, visible only in bright scenes (especially white).

As well, under certain conditions the right top and bottom corners are slightly off color, almost like the projection is a bit off center. I can best describe it as a slightly blue/grey tinge to the picture in the corners.

Is this type of flaw something to be expected with this technology or is there something out of adjustment that I might be able to fix???

Thanks in advance for any info/advice!

I believe I have the same unit as you describe. I'm not at home right now, but I'm about 99.9% confident that it's the same unit.

At any rate I can't answer any of your questions.

What I can say is that the unit I have produces an excellent picture with no hot spots or changes in shades across the screen. Overall I'm very pleased with its performance. I also have a Sony 52 inch flat screen lcd, model number escapes me at the moment. I would rate the picture on the rear screen projection unit as superior under low ambient room light conditions. In bright ambient light the rear projection picture starts to wash out whereas the 52 inch flat screen lcd does not.

But for my viewing conditions the rear projection Sony has been an absolutely wonderful TV. No complaints.

  Thanks for the info,
  
  The flaws I'm wondering about are pretty subtle and otherwise I am very happy with the picture. Before I spent $ on having it serviced I wanted to make sure it was potentially something that could be fixed and not an inherent flaw. Will now look into getting it serviced
  
  Thanks again
