No, who has an HDTV, and what kind do you have?

My set up. TV is a 50" Panasonic 1080p:

Nice, I'm looking to buy floor speakers my self.
.

Lots of great choices these days at all price points. Start with budget, take it from there. I listen to a lot of music, more music than movies, so my main L and R need to be top of the line to my ears for music.

Those big BnW's need a lot of juice. The big amp on the bottom runs just those two:

The amp on top fills in the rest for movies.
 
Is that a Carver amp?

It's made by Anthem. It's a real beast. The lights dim when you first turn it on. I need to run a dedicated 15amp breaker for it, which I will do when I have the time.
 
I used to have a big custom setup like that... (Carver)

I actually had some big CerwinVegas which I promptly melted down with that Carver amp.

I replaced them with a pair of professional studio Monitors that I bought from a DJ
CervinVega as well with 18in SUBs... I was very careful with the volume knob after that


Later, someone broke into my house and stole it all, and AAA screwed me on the adjustment.

I will never own another system like that.

Somewhere in a box I have a Bose Acoustimass set and a Sony digital receiver..
Once I get my Kitchen remodel cleaned up, ill set them up

Whats the output?
 
Whats the output?

500w per channel in 4ohm and it only goes up from there. Will do a stable 2 ohm load and is stable right to a short circuit. Few amps at any price can make that claim, this why the reviews for the amp are as good as they are.

You would make Tim Taylor from Home Improvement proud.
 
There is a list of things to look for in a tv, and 1080p is about the LEAST important thing to look for when considering picture quality.


Color accuracy, contrast ratio, black levels, scaling/processing all come before resolution in importance.

Long time no see Mr 'Dyl. Where you been?

CRT's still handle black levels better than LCD's and plasmas.

Yup, below 50" it wont matter, and had I not got such a good price on the TV I got, would have purchased a well rated non 1080p plasma from Panasonic or Pioneer.

Black levels aren't everything though. It really comes down to personal opinion, and at the most, running software to tell you what 'looks' better.


I wonder if CRT blacks can still handle the new pioneer kuro extreme's blacks.

Don't trust the cheapest online stores. Most are a scam. I'd stick with nextag or CNET trusted seller, and with 4-5 star rating at least.

I was more worried about the quality of the unit, than $50-100 per site

If you have a thousand dollars to spend, go with a 42 inch panasonic plasma 720p. It's one of the highest rated sets by CNET, even at that price.

But I want the built in DVD - :sob:
 
I believe you would need a tuner, not so sure but I do know you can do the opposite.

Both of my LCD's have computer (RGB) connections.

My current tv has s-cables but the response time is horrible, no way I can pwn noobs in COD4 on it.
