Wow, I had one very similar to this. A selling point(?), if I'm recalling it correctly, was that it could accept some sort of 'smart/HD module' down-the-line. I always kept that option in the back of my mind through 2007 or so when flat screens were starting to really take off. My big Mitsubishi was supplanted in my affections by the 32" Panasonic Viera we bought at BJ's Wholesale Club just prior to the Super Bowl in 2007. That 32" Panasonic was priced at $1300; I'm citing this for contrast of pricing. My Mitsubishi was over $2300 at Best Buy in late-October of 2002. I also purchased a progressive scan Mitsubishi DVD player to complement my new TV. The setup was my premiere venue for entertainment for several years and that projection TV served us well.

If there is anything more un-loved than a leftover CRT TV, it has to be a leftover read-projection CRT TV. The things were so big and ugly that I remember a co-worker buying one brand new and having his wife throw it out of the house. And, as the story proves, they were a nightmare to maintain. I've heard of models in which the fluid would leak out and actually cause the boards underneath to catch fire after the fluid boiled away. But, I'll bet these things, the few of them which are left in 10 or 20 years, will be serious collectors items; transitional technologies are always kind of interesting. The original high price is understandable considering all the expensive parts in them, but they were not for the faint-of-hear. Meanwhile, I'm glad to hear that some people are willing to live with them. I wonder if there is a way to make a drip pan or diverter to keep the fluid out of the guts of these things.
@Browningate5 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the commentary. I agree with much of that, although I'm not sure that it's a class of product that will have collectibility. I'm willing to be proved wrong on that, however. Many of these are actually supposed to have a primitive apparatus that collects leaking coolant, but I'm not sure how widely that was implemented or how effective it was. Apart from that, (and the requisite stressful lens cleanings and occasional convergence adjustments) they're actually pretty much maintenance-free; especially the analog models. As far as the MSRP goes, I see where you're coming from in that all of the components were designed for that application, but when you consider how much they cheaped out on factory calibration, (with the intentional excessive overscan used to hide the incomplete geometry adjustments) I still question how "pioneering" they really were, especially when you consider that a lot of the technology was based on the CRT front projectors already in existence. That said, it is worth mentioning that front-projectors could be a lot more expensive (many, if not most, of those were priced between $10,000 and $30,000 in 1990s-value money) and didn't have built-in speakers, tuners, or the requisite projection screen and mirrors, so maybe rear-projectors really were worth the asking price after all. It's probably just the details-oriented side of me who hates a half-assed job.

The coolant is ethylene glycol, once it starts to leak it will not stop. There is two reasons it will leak, one is the chambers on those sets and a hell of a lot of other sets were a bit shit. Two is the glycol is hygroscopic, so given the shit coolant chambers, the glycol will slurp up a bit of extra moisture and swell the bellows, when it warms up it will be too much pressure, and it will start to leak. The best option is to drain the coolant and clean out the chambers, then refill it with polypropylene glycol, and when you do that, leave a bit of air in there to allow for expansion. The poly glycol is not near as corrosive, and not near as conductive. The refractive index is almost the same as ethylene glycol, and the cooling properties are about the same. The set will need a full calibration following a correct service manual procedure after glycol is changed, especially the blue tube because it requires a special adjustment procedure to be performed on electronic beam focus or you won't get accurate grey scale and you will need to drive the blue much harder to get good brightness, which will result in pretty quick phosphor wear. That set is very likely to have a variant of Panasonic P16 electro-static focusing tubes, if indeed you set the astigmatism correctly on them and do a full setup from scratch, the 1080i image will have crisp scanlines visible. There is a few beam correction magnets on the neck of the tube, down near the neck boards. There will be at least a 2 pole set, and probably a 4 pole set, some have a 6 pole set, and some will have an electronically adjustable set, similar to an electro-magnetic focus tube in a front projection CRT. As you point out, a lot of rear projection sets were never really calibrated exceptionally well from the factory anyway. Manufacturers probably saw no real need to, given that the tubes could EASILY resolve 576p even with a mediocre calibration, but with some work they will have a real good shot at perfect 1080i and 720p as well, on the sets that will display it. The Panasonic P16 family of tubes was used because they are brighter and sharper than the other available tubes, with most of the others being Sony, very few used Toshiba and NEC tubes (those were 7" tubes, the P16 tubes are 8" ), none would have used any of those by the time this set came out. Even the Sony rear projection CRTs used Panasonic P16 tubes in majority of their bigger sets, and used a electro-magnetic focus long neck version of the P16 in the G70 CRT projectors, with the G90 using the huge P19 Panasonic tubes (also used in the later versions of the Marquee 9500 ULTRA and the Barco 909/Cine 9) The coolant chambers were usually made by the manufacturer selling that model of set, so it was hit and miss as to just how good they were at staying sealed up and not leaking. I have never ever seen any Panasonic GAOO or Tau GIGA leak. Hitachi and Mitsubishi were commonly used in arcade games, and it is rare that they won't have leaked by now. LG and Samsung were basically the same chambers, and held up a little better than a Mitsubishi. Toshiba sets i don't know if they were an issue or not, they were quite rare here due probably to the absolutely outrageous price they sold for new, they were often credited as being one of the nicest pictures straight out of the box, but they used the exact same tubes as the Panasonic GAOO sets used. The massive JVC sets i have seen used Sony 9" electro-static focus air-coupled tubes, and their image quality was pretty darn ordinary out of the box. GE and a few other very cheap sets in the mid to late 90s often used 7" Sony ES focus air coupled tubes, very similar to what Sony (amongst others) used in their very small CRT projectors. They often suffered from crystals forming in the glycol, but i have never EVER seen one leak.
@Browningate3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the insight. If I ever get another one, I'll have to keep that in mind. Interestingly, the service manual seems to indicate that most of these do have the 7" tubes though.
@CaseTheCorvetteMan3 жыл бұрын
@@Browningate They are 8", they say 7" in the manual because that is what the manufacturer of the set has considered the usable size with their beam control magnetics. The astigmatism gets worse the further away from middle you go, and the edges are probably going to be pretty ordinary with Mitsubishi hardware attached. That set has only 4 pole correction, and no electronic dynamic beam shape correction either, so it is a mid field model. The small sets that used 7" Sony tubes were advertised as 5.5" tubes, but those same series of tube used in a front projector were usually called 7" tubes, because the deflection circuitry and beam control is usually better and more of the phosphor area can be utilised. The P16 tubes measure 8" from corner to corner across the tube face. On a set such as the front projection NEC XG series there is 2 pole, 4 pole, and 6 pole astig rings, and there is also multi zone electronic astig correction, so it is possible to get the beam focus near perfect across the entire tube face, and you can pretty much use the full surface. The magnetic rings adjust the beam shape so that when it hits the phosphor it is perfectly in focus, giving the smallest spot size for the best resolution. If the astig is not right, the image will appear soft. You can tell if it is good by displaying a test pattern, and adjust the focus pot, if the lines or dots move around as you wind the pot from full under focus to full over focus, the astig is off. If the lines or dots flair in one direction, the astig is off. It is a big thing when you look into it, calibrating a CRT projection system is a dark art.

If your convergence ICs go bad, the 3 primary colors will start to lose their geometry on-screen. This will happen very obviously and abruptly, but you'll still have something on the screen. That's the only case for touching up or replacing the convergence ICs. The symptom you're experiencing would not be caused by convergence ICs, as far as I can tell.

If there's gross distortion of the image, (separation of color convergence) you might need convergence ICs. Did it look like that before you replaced the board? With regard to the leak, you may need to figure how to rig something up to protect the boards until the leak can be resolved. If you've already got that much money into it, you may as well go the whole nine yards and finish the job, if you've got the space and/or use for the machine. That said, if you're getting no response from the buttons, check to make sure that there isn't coolant splashed onto anything important. It can be tricky to spot sometimes.

@Niterider - I've never looked into it or heard of anyone doing it before. What I have heard is that there's definitely enough in there that some can leak out without affecting PQ. You'd have a sizeable amount of liquid dripping down before it became an issue on the tubes. It'd probably be easiest to harvest some from a dead, discarded unit if needed though. The condition you describe with the image being too large is inherent with the technology. They did it on purpose because it would take too much effort to properly calibrate the geometry at the edges in the factory, from what I have heard. It can be adjusted down in the service menu or it can be fixed physically by way of shims. Either option requires a very large amount of effort, adjustment, and expertise, and carries a lot of risk.

My advice would be to power it up and see what happens! From what I've read on that model, while it is a 4:3 set, it should take full HD, so your 16:9 material will just be cropped down a bit, making it more like a 57". It advertises a 60 watt sound system too, so I'd be genuinely curious to hear what it can do. Anyway, if it works alright, clean the lenses, tighten up the convergence, and get an HD source hooked up (seventh-generation game consoles, and even some sixth-generation systems, are great candidate). Keep us posted!

@Browningate5 жыл бұрын
CRT rear projection isn't the brightest, but unless you have an LCD displaying the same image right next to it, there shouldn't be a dramatic level of noticeable difference. Viewing angles are a different story. The lens salvages everything it can out of the CRTs by focusing the light forward. You can view the image off-angle, but it won't be as bright. Another thing to consider is that CRT doesn't last forever and does age. If your set was run at 100% contrast (which is the default setting out of the box) for tens of thousands of hours, it will not pack the punch that it did when it was new or if the previous owner had the presence of mind to change the settings.

@Tico - You're welcome. Assuming that it actually did lose brightness, it could be a weak power supply, but more than likely would be worn tubes. If you could salvage scarcely-used tubes from a similar/identical model, I suppose you could swap them in, but that would be way more effort than it's worth. If the previous owner ran it on 100% contrast for tens of thousands of hours, the damage has already been done. From what I understand, the color shift is more apparent than the brightness change though.

@Browningate3 жыл бұрын
Probably not. If the convergence is good, then I'd say that the convergence ICs are fine. The most likely explanation is that the lenses are dusty. Give them a thorough cleaning, and check the mirror while you're in there. Depending on the make, (and depending on how/where it's been stored over the course of its lifetime) since some have poorly-sealed optical cavities, the mirror might be dusty too. Be very careful when cleaning lenses and/or mirror, however. They're not made from the same scratch-resistant material as your cell phone screen. In fact, those surfaces are unbelievably soft and scratch at the slightest provocation.

If the not powering on was preceded by convergence problems, it's not that uncommon for the ICs to short out and kill a pico-fuse when they have been run out of spec for too long. If the convergence was fine before, start with checking for standby voltages and such to rule out a bad power supply. And look very carefully for small splashes of coolant, as they can be extremely difficult to see.

Browningate there was no convergence issues prior. The image quality was actually quite good but one day when I tried to power it on it did not come on.

It's using the maximum display capability of the console over a connection intended for higher resolution (since HDMI has supported both 1080p120 and 2160p30 since HDMI 1.4).

The screen looks pale because I'm filming it with a camera. In person, it looks pretty good.

Can this TV screen be used without being attached to the bottom 1/2 speaker unit? If I wanted to use a speaker bar instead?
@Browningate9 ай бұрын
You could remove the original speakers from the unit's casing, but that wouldn't accomplish anything more than leaving empty holes in the front of the machine that a bar wouldn't fit into anyhow, so it'd certainly be a worthless endeavor. Besides, the sound in this thing is actually pretty good, and adding a subwooferless "bar" probably wouldn't improve the audio at all anyway. It'd be waaaaaay easier to leave it alone in that regard. Did you even watch the video?

You need to get in to plasma tv.
@Browningate2 жыл бұрын
I've always wanted to own one, but never really experienced a Plasma that I liked all that much. I once fixed a Hitachi UltraVision plasma that kept the bright-scene-dimming problem (that plasmas are notorious for) to a minimum, but the panel was a little grimy (similar to a low-end oled screen). Still, I found it to be reasonably enjoyable from a distance.

Since you watched the video in its entirety, you have correctly asserted that this isn't a DLP.

Is anybody on here know how to hook up an Xbox One to an old big-screen Mitsubishi I just got it for free and I would love to have the Xbox hooked up to that it's bigger than my flat screen
@Browningate4 жыл бұрын
HDMI-to-Component transcoder is your friend in that case, since the Xbox One only has HDMI output, and a lot of these HD CRT RPTVs only have component-in as their only means of high definition input. Just make sure that you get one that supports scaling to a resolution of your choice, so that the output is always 1080i.

@fargeeks Hmm... Blue horizontal isn't something I've ever heard of or seen before. What kind/size of lines are we talking about? How much of the screen do they cover? Where do they appear? Do they move?
