Question posted by Rgrat on June 21st, 2015

I Own A Sony Kds-r60xbr2. It Has A Greenish Hue To The Screen. Upon Doing Some

research, it turns out the optical block is the problem. The cost of a new one is not worth the price to buy to fix a 7 year old TV (it would be the easiest way. The only low cost way to fix it would be to replace one (or all) 3 of the color SXRD Panels. These color panel(s) are what i am looking to buy. Not being absolutely sure what color I need to fix the problem and the time it takes to take apart the TV, I thought it would be simpler to just replace all three colors if I can get them. So, my Question is Where can i buy these panels and what is the price for them.Thank you.
