I bought a SONY EX500 4 months ago, and I noticed once I moved into my new place there is horizontal banding on the TV similiar to banding on prints... Does anyone know what would cause this Ive updated the TV, hard reset unplugged still all there! Any suggestions

News to me. Have the same model in the bedroom, only thing I've had to do is adjust the color tones.

Is it also there if you use another or no input? Different cable?

k20z3 · 01-11-2011, 08:47 AM

Yeah its very weird, not sure what the hell it is... interference next to XBOX i dont know!

Try testing with a different cable...
(If this works correctly, then the original cable is to blame)

Try testing on a different input...
(If this works correctly, something's up with your original input)

Try testing a different device on the same troublesome input.
(If this works correctly, it's your source device, not the tv)

one of the back lights could of come loose during the move

Is it LCD? it's a known problem on lcds. You should check avs forums.

k20z3 · 01-11-2011, 04:17 PM

Yeah its a Sony LCD... so is there an option to fix it?

k20z3 · 01-11-2011, 04:17 PM

It appears on games, and when I had cable...

k20z3 · 01-11-2011, 04:53 PM

It seems electrical interference... I plugged into outlet behind my couch and that seemed to get rid of it or make it better.

If that's the case, get a good surge protector with electrical filtering

k20z3 · 01-14-2011, 01:20 AM

Does anyone know a good brand with electrical filtering to block out some of the interference?

There are some Monster brands sold at best buy that should do the trick

Are you sure the banding will go away? if I get a monster cord?
