I was told it needed replacing occasionally when I purchased the TV from Best Buy, and that was 6 1/2 years ago, and I had never replaced the bulb. So, I decided to buy a bulb. The Sony website sells this for about $200, and there are off-brands for about $80, so I wanted to save money, but not buy a generic bulb. So, I went with this Philips bulb, for between the two extremes. The third-party reseller was Dynamic Lighting - I ordered on a Saturday, paid a few extra dollars for priority shipping, and they shipped on Tuesday and it arrived on Thursday (cross country, they're in CA and I'm in FL). The box and item appears to be genuine Philips. I followed the instructions in the bulb box (slightly different, and more accurate, than what is in the TV owner's manual), and a small hex wrench was in the bulb box as well. Replacement was straight-forward. I'm a techie kind of person, so I would not say it was "easy," but it was do-able. The wrench wasn't long enough to reach into the screw and turn it completely - there was a casing wall to one side, so I had to do numerous half-turns to unscrew the old bulb and screw in the new one. But, it's done - probably 15 minutes total. And the TV works again. Colors are brighter, and I'm pleased. I can't say the off-brand ones are worse - as noted, I've owned this TV for years, and this is my first bulb replacement

Philips O'Neill SHO9560BK/28 Over-Ear Headphones - Black (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Picked up a pair of these for myself for just $15 (thanks TJ Maxx) on a whim since I needed to replace an older cheap pair that broke. I never imagined how good $15 could sound or feel! I've been wearing these for a few hours now listening to a variety of music (Civil Wars, Tesseract, Sigur Ros, Jason Aldean) and testing them compared to some other pairs of over-the-ears that I own. These are by far my favorite...now my disclaimer: I consider myself an audiophile in the sense that I record/mix/produce music in a REAL studio. I have learned what good sound is through $10,000 speakers. Don't expect that from headphones. That's just silly.

The bottom line is that the sound is GOOD. Good (in the case of these) does mean a bit colored. They have a punchy, articulated bass that is exaggerated yet tight - but not too exaggerated. Midrange is slightly (very slightly) scooped. Treble is well-pronounced, crisp, and clean, without being tinny or harsh. The 40mm drivers deliver well, giving a wide stereo image, but I can notice a lack of depth at times. Sound Isolation is good. No clear data that I could see but I'd guess -20 to -25dB.

The cord is long enough to allow me to stick my iPod in my pocket, and the braid keeps it from getting pinched in places. I like that it is replaceable ('cause we all know it's eventually going to go...) and Philips will send you one for free.

Comfort-wise is my one complaint...I might scratch off 1/2 a star for that. The leather ear cups are quite comfortable for lengths of time, but I found the strap that goes over the had was a bit too short for my large noggin (I wear a size 8 hat). I don't typically consider my head to be large...I might need to reconsider. Nothing that a few frequent adjustments didn't fix.

KDF55WF655 (55" Sony WEGA, purchased March 2005), and several months ago the TV would shut off for about 30 seconds, then would come back on, with the green power light flashing as it was "off." The problem went away, just to come back with a vengeance recently, shutting off for 30 seconds every 55 seconds it was on. 


Well, some internet research denoted the problem was most likely the bulb. I was told it needed replacing occasionally when I purchased the TV from Best Buy, and that was 6 1/2 years ago, and I had never replaced the bulb. So, I decided to buy a bulb. The Sony website sells this for about $200, and there are off-brands for about $80, so I wanted to save money, but not buy a generic bulb. So, I went with this Philips bulb, for between the two extremes. 

 The third-party reseller was Dynamic Lighting - I ordered on a Saturday, paid a few extra dollars for priority shipping, and they shipped on Tuesday and it arrived on Thursday (cross country, they're in CA and I'm in FL). The box and item appears to be genuine Philips. I followed the instructions in the bulb box (slightly different, and more accurate, than what is in the TV owner's manual), and a small hex wrench was in the bulb box as well.

Great screen clarity. Connecting to the internet was very simple and is connecting PC/HDMI devices. My only complaint are the web apps. No Hulu? Oh well.
