Regular ole busted TV question
 

I have a 27" SONY, about 10 years old. I was watching it when it went off with a slight hiss and won't come back on.

Is it usually cheaper to get them fixed, or to just buy a new one?

Sorry if this has a thread, but wasn't sure what to search under. "Televisions That Break" didn't do it!

Thanks!

Buy a new one.

Bri is right on. Your tv, for all purposes, is dead. Your tube went. That's practically as much as the tv itself. There is a SLIGHT possibility it was a transistor or fuse, but it isn't worth it to determine it.

Invest in a new 27" HD Panny and enjoy the ride ($500)

Also in agreement with everyone else. Toss it and get a new one. With the price of TVs today, you can't lose.
