Anyone that knows these 40" trinitron crt's have any thought into the lifespan of them? It would appear after owning two KV-40XBR800's and a 36" version of this set it seems that they tend to loose focus and brightness over time. And when powered up cold they flicker between red and blue for the first 5 seconds or so. It would appear that the design of these beasts without a schematic looks to be 36" CRT guns and fly back ramped up to drive the 40" aperture. Anyone wanna chime in?
Oh yeah and with respect to red lettering on the screen in dark backgrounds. The red bleeds. Both of these do it.
