The XL-5000 lamp is what Sony fitted to the KDS-70Q005, KDS-70Q005U, KDS-70Q006 and KDS-70Q006U rear-projection sets. It is supplied bare, so the bulb goes into your existing lamp cage rather than arriving pre-housed. Sony also catalogued this lamp under F-9308-720-0 and XL-5000U.
If your old lamp is marked F-9308-720-0 or XL-5000U rather than XL-5000, it is the same part, just a different code from the same manufacturer history. Since this is a bare bulb, keep your original cage and clips to transfer across. Wattage and lamp life are not stated in our records for this part, so check compatibility by projector model instead.

Common questions
Is F-9308-720-0 the same lamp as the XL-5000?
Yes. F-9308-720-0 and XL-5000U are alternative codes Sony has used for the same lamp we list as XL-5000. If your old bulb is marked with either of those, this listing is still the correct match.
Which television models use the XL-5000?
The Sony KDS-70Q005, KDS-70Q005U, KDS-70Q006 and KDS-70Q006U all use this lamp. These are 70-inch rear-projection sets from the same Sony product family, and all four share this identical bare bulb regardless of the U suffix on the model name.
Should KDS-70Q005 owners keep their old cage when fitting the XL-5000?
Yes. This is the bare bulb only, so you fit it into the cage and connector already inside your set rather than replacing the enclosure. Keep the original cage and any mounting clips to hand, since they transfer across to the new bulb during fitting.
What is the correct way to fit a bare bulb like this?
The old bulb is removed from its cage first, then the new XL-5000 is seated in the same cage and reconnected, before the whole assembly goes back into the set. If you are not confident handling the internal cage, a technician can do this step for you.
How do I confirm this is the right lamp for my set?
Match the model number printed on the back of your television, such as KDS-70Q005 or KDS-70Q006, against the list above. Because Sony used several codes for this same lamp, the television model is a more reliable check than the part number alone.
This is a bare lamp — the bulb only. You reuse the housing already fitted in your projector.
