BRAVIA KDL-52XBR4 PARTIAL IMAGE DELAY

Three suggestions:

1. Try to hook cable direct without box to see if same problem---ie the box might cause this problem.

2. Check to see if it does it with DVD or when you change active inputs.
3. If number one contact cable provider as box may be your problem.

My sony bravia kdl-52xbr4 has a chip in it . looks like a little pellet hit the screen. how much will it cost to replace that screen?

Sadly, a replacement screen itself would cost more than the TV is worth.

Here are a couple of web sites selling the replacement screen:

http://www.partstore.com/GetModel.aspx?MfgName=Sony&BrandName=Sony&ModelNumber=KDL52XBR4&SearchTerm=True&Page=1&SortBy=price&SortDirection=desc#PartsearchSKUList

http://www.encompassparts.com/products/?1-802-490-31

http://www.encompassparts.com/products/?1-802-490-32

I know it seems like a crazy price. But, TV manufactures buy a mass quantity at a lower price. Where buying just one screen panel cost an arm and a leg. Buying a new TV is the best choice money wise.
