I have a 12 year old 27" Sony Trinitron Console Model #KV 271 W77, it always had a beautiful picture until last week when all of a sudden the picture disappeared and the screen went black. I called a TV repairman who told me it is the Voltage Regulator Power Supply...??????!! and it would cost $285.00 to repair. Although I love the TV, I refuse to pay that amount to repair it when I could put that money toward another brand, ie: Panasonic, Sharp, etc. This problem seems to be prevalent with Sony TV's from what I'm reading in these messages. My daughter is looking to purchase a Sony flat screen but after reading about all of these dissatisfied consumers, I'm going to tell her to look at a different brand. Thanks folks.
