i have an old model sony trinitron. the problem is that when i turn it on, i can hear sound right away but no picture until about 10-15min later. the picture is also reddish just a tinge. i had it repaired and it was perfect, only after about a month, it started to act up again. the picture would be delayed seconds, then a few minutes, then longer.
