50" Panasonic TH-50PE8U
Playstation 3

Work in progress . Next is a Pioneer Receiver with at least 3x HDMI, and 2x Klipsch standup speakers and a decent center channel. I'm just glad I have a nice TV in my room now.

Ya this is the TV I got for under 700 bucks at work. It was a Black Friday model, which means it has one less HDMI than the regular model, the TH-50PX80U. This one has 2x, which means nothing to me as I'm getting a Pioneer receiver in the near future.

I hang out in the Home Theater dept. a lot lately and can say with confidence this would blow some/most 1080p LCDs out of the water at proper viewing distance.

I was a bit hesitant to even give the TV a chance but I scored a hell of a deal and it has so far exceeded my high expectations.

EDIT: The gray picture is from the plasma break-in and calibration DVD.

Just snapped this with my phone... it's a Sharp projector on a 120" screen in my living room. There's a 6.1 setup (cheap Yamaha HTIB stuff) with a pretty nice receiver. We have it hooked up to a PS3 and this is actually Hulu in the picture. I've also got that gaming chair in here. No special seats or anything, just a futon. It's a lot of fun but I'm not home enough to use it as much as I'd like.

I'm Tweak3D's self-appointed mayor.

BenQ W500 720P projector
Decent upconverting dvd player
JVC SU-DH1 (my review)
Beyerdynamic DT770's
White wall
Hideous, yet comfortable, couch







That's just over 90" diagonal image. Sitting 10 feet away it looks great to me (a non-videophile).

I fucking love it

Chris I have the same tv stand

All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.

And that cat sure does use it.....that is the playing-est cat I ever saw. She's definately an integral part of the home entertainment system.

My roomates have a 60" and a 42" TV with surround sound. They are obnoxiously big. I don't think I have turned either one on in over two months except to play music through the xbox if I have people over.

I hate watching TV's.

I'm trying to evolve.

My friends sharp HD 720p projector that he bought back in 2002 has never had its bulb replaced. We have watched sooooooo many movies on that thing I have no idea how the bulb is still working.

I'd take a quick snap but I have hideous wallpaper and it embarasses me

42" LG LCD TV
XBox 360
Wii
PS2

Soon to add (*hopes*) a 5.1 setup and a PS3 for blu-rays.
