Product Description
LCD Rear Projection Television
Amazon.com Product Description
Bring a true cinema experience into your own living room with the 42-inch Sony KDFE42A10 rear-projection LCD TV, which features a new design with a thin dark black bezel, a compact body and invisible speakers located at the bottom of the set. It features built-in analog (NTSC) and HDTV digital (ATSC) tuners. (Digital high-definition programming is available via terrestrial signals (over-the-air) or unscrambled cable signals provided by your cable company.) It's also Digital Cable Ready, so you can enjoy digital cable without an additional box or remote. The KDFE42A10 uses the 3LCD video projection system, which combines three LCD panels to produce an image for a brighter picture in well-lit rooms, intensly vibrant natural colors, and spectacular HD performance. It's driven by Sony's WEGA Engine System, which delivers superb picture quality from any video source by minimizing the signal deterioration caused by digital-to-analog conversion and stabilizing the signal processing. The Digital Reality Creation line doubling feature replaces the signal's NTSC waveform with the HD equivalent, while doubling the number of vertical and horizontal lines. This results in four times the density for quality sources, such as DVD, satellite and digital camcorders. The CineMotion technology feature uses reverse 3-2 pull down technology, providing smoother picture movement when playing back movies or other video sources on film. Other features include the Steady Sound audio equalizer (for consistent output between programs and commercials), parental controls (V-chip), Favorites channel list, front AV Inputs for connecting camcorders or video game consoles,and an HDMI connection for uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between the TV and any HDMI-equipped audio/video component. It has a 24-watt stereo audio system (two 12-watt speakers) and TruSurround XT compatibility. It features the following video and audio connections: - Composite AV In (RCA): 3 (1 front)
- S-Video In: 1
- RF In: 1
- Component Video In: 3 (1 front)
- HDMI In: 1
- PC In (D-Sub 15-pin): 1

Don't buy Sony TV's....There are plenty good brands out there instead, 2010-08-24
Bought the Sony projection TV 3 years ago and low and behold...it has the" blue streak on bottom of my SONY TV MODEL KDF-E42A10" issue documents all over google, etc.
No excuses for inferior products and lack of support to resolve. Samsung makes a GREAT lcd tv that I will buy instead. If you don't care about wasting money ( e.g. work for a US government agency) then buy this TV.....
Optical block dead like everyone else, 2009-12-03
All SONY rear projection tv optical blocks are going to die in 4-5 years. Sony sold these TVs with a known problem. To me, SONY is a crook company. There is a class action suit against sony for this.
Hot Bulb next to small lcd panels = burnt lcd panels.
From thrilled to extremely unhappy in 3 years, 2010-08-16
Bought the TV in 2007 and loved most everything about it - perfect size for our needs & excellent picture quality & sound.
2009 the bulb went out, we were forwarned that it would need replacements bulbs so we forked out the $100 for a new bulb thinking we would probably have to do this every 2 years - uugh.
2010 we started getting the infamous blue blobs... my husband took it apart & cleaned it really well which resulted in much bigger & more spread out blue & green blobs!
TV repair man says the same thing you will see here - he gets lots of calls & they are all going bad. Repair is over $800... so dissapointed & very unhappy.
DO NOT BUY -- see class action lawsuit re: defects, 2010-03-27
Nearly cried when this TV developed a nasty series of blue blobs on the screen after only 2 years. Learned late that the optic block was known to be defective by Sony but they sold this model anyhow. A class-action lawsuit is pending. The optic block is so expensive and expensive to install that it would cost more than the TV is now worth.DO NOT BUY THIS MODEL. READ the internet re: all the complaints and the pending lawsuit. Never again will I buy a Sony.
STAY AWAY, 2009-12-02
Stay away from this Sony piece of junk. Mine started to develope blotchy patches in the middle of the picture. Started to do research on the web and found web site dedicated to this. It seems the light engines fail in many of the Sony WEGA and GrandWEGA TV's after a few years. There are several class action lawsuits against Sony because the light engines are defective, and these law suite claim Sony may have even known about the problem and continued to sell the TV's at retail outlets. Sad thing is, when I got the TV the picture was really outstanding. But after just four years I'm in the market for a new TV.
