150 bucks for a 53" projection Sony

yeah I know its a $150 dollar projection tv but I was tired of my 27"

Got him home and the picture is a little foggy, enough to annoy me. It seemed fine when I went to the house to pick it up.

Does anyone know how to clear up the picture on these TVs? Could it have been damaged on the 20 mile trek home? Is something out of alignment?

One guy told me the lens might have dust that settled on them and to clean it with a static free cloth, another guy said to use some compressed air to clean them. I've heard the compressed air idea is a no-no.

Any insight on this?

If I remember correctly most of those needed some kind of alignment after being moved around a lot.

If so, it might be something you can adjust yourself.
