Toshiba 32 inch TV Color Issues.Please Help.

Hi everyone, I am new to the group and not electronics savvy so please bear with me. I have a brand new Toshiba 32" Model # 32A35C that is acting very strange indeed. It is showing the same kind of color bleeding you get if you put a magnet to close to any CRT TV. Like purple in one corner,green in the other etc..This is the third TV I have brought home from the store that has been showing this type of problem. I thought the first TV was defective so I had it replaced with another of the same type(sanyo 35") but the second one was even worse. I figured that maybe the TV's were just crappy and/or were stored too close to the stereos in the store(wal mart) so I went to a respectable furniture store and bought a better brand name. I think? but this TV also showed some bright and dark spots when looking at a black screen and some green and brownish spots when looking at a white or even bright screen.I used THX test patterns from the Star Wars dvd's along with some expensive Monster Component Video cables running on a Toshiba SD-K750SU2 DVD Player also bought brand new at the same time as the TV. So here I am with 3 TV's all showing the exact same malfunction even though there are no magnetic devices close to them whatsoever.Just to be sure I moved EVERY electronic device in my apartment over to my friend's place across the hall in order to rule out my surround reciever, subwoofer, speakers etc.. but the problem persisted. I then moved the TV to a different spot in the living room and got the same funny colors but they were in slightly different areas on the screen as before.Hmmmm!! my speakers are shielded and can be put right on the TV without any interference but the TV seems to be picking up a high magnetic field from somewhere even though theres nothing magnetic near it. If anyone has any ideas as to what to do to shield the TV or find the offending source please respond. Thanks for reading such a long post. Cheers.
