Split-screen on Sony KDF55XS955

Greetings:

Has anyone noticed a barely visible horizontal split right down the
middle of their screen?

I recently purchased the Sony KDF-55XS955 and I have DirecTV's HD
package connected to an RCA box via DVI to HDMI. I've noticed that the
top half of the screen is slightly off from the bottom half of the
screen, thus causing the appearance of a very faint line right across
the middle of the screen. This is noticeable on some the hi-def
channels but I don't notice it when I'm watching a DVD or some standard
definition channels.

I'm not quite sure if its the signal coming in or the TV itself. Any
advice would help. Thank you.

Will.

Thanks, Dennis. I've never heard of the term "fine mask", is it a
physical wire or something that's projected because I don't see it all
the time.

My answer was/is off base as only the 30 & 34" fine mask CRT (tube)
Sony's

may have the 'visible' horizontal mask wire.....

Your set is not a 24" deep CRT Sony.... Sorry for my wrong
answer.

Have it checked out, may need to have item serviced or at least throughly
inspected.
