is sony KDF-42WE655 noisy?

[jdub76]

Hello-
I just purchased the panasonic PT-43LC14 and I'm a little annoyed by the hum of the fan inside the TV. Its very noticeable during quiet movie passages. Does the Sony have a similar noise? still have 30 days to return or trade at circuit city.

Thanks,
J

cool, thanks. Its impossible to tell at cc with all the ambient noise. But at home I can hear the panasonic whirring from my sofa 9 feet away. Not a "there is something wrong with this kind of hum" but noticeable and annoying if you're sensitive to that kind of thing. sounds like a computer actually. I didn't spend all this money on a nice sound system to have the noise floor raised by a noisy tv. I'll trade for the sony at cc.

thanks,
J

I have a 55WF655, and there is very low fan noise from the unit. It is NOT noticeable during any viewing so far!! I notice it only after shut off for a short time.
