what kind of tv you got?

Mon Jan 12, 2009 4:24 am

Well I got a tv a few months ago after a friend of mine dropped my old one, but I currently have a Toshiba 32" flat screen LCD TV. I love it so far I've had no issues, I have my xbox, ps3, and cable box all in Hi Def. Not to small, but I think it's the perfect size for a bed room.

I have a JVC 37" flatscreen, it's pretty sweet. Not full 1080p but it still looks quite nice with DVDs and HD channels.

Got a Sony Bravia 32" HDTV in my bedroom. I forget whether it is 1080p or not, but it's native 720p, has a load of inputs, 2 HDMI, 2 Component, 3 RCA, S-Video and VGA. Great for my room, but I have noticed lately that if I look at it from a vertical angle, the color is less saturated. Not much of a problem because who watches tv at wide angles. I've got it hooked up as a second monitor on my pc for watching movies, especially HD ones.

Still way behind the times when it comes to my TV, I still have an old CRT TV that I got for Christmas about six or seven years ago.

40 inch Philips LCD 1080p. TV are kinda cheap here in Thailand and it's probably because of the brand as well. It's family tv though but I do have full access to it whenever I want to.

Sony 46 Inch KDL-XBR. Got it before they put in the new models which meant we got it cheap.

I was actually thinking of making a thread kinda like this a while ago. I like seeing "post your set-up" threads on forums, gives you ideas and it's fun to see how people spend their money.
Anyways I'm 17 and sell TV's, speakers and computer for a part time job, and know my shit pretty well. Blew $1100 on a 32" Panasonic LCD last summer, at the time I thought it's all I'd want, but as time went on, and prices dropped I wanted bigger. So boxing week I bought a 42" Panasonic plasma, and just picked it up last friday. So far I love it. Full 1080p, 1 000 000:1 contrast ratio (which means absolutely nothing), and absolutely no ghosting or motion blur when watching sports or playing video games.

I loved my old tv, still in my opinion one of the best LCD's in the size (one of the few with 120Hz), just wanted bigger, and now I think my setup is complete. Maybe take some pictures later. I suggest turning the thread into a "post your setup thread" (Y).

Got a 42" Philips 1080p LCD a few months ago. Should've gotten a plasma instead, I know, but I'm pretty happy with it. Plus I just got a PC-TV cable connector of some sort (I think it's DVI-HDMI or something) so I couldn't possibly want more.

Ha. I had that exact same monitor, the C64 one.

Still own a crappy CRT, but my goal is to get a Samsung 40" Series 7 in the near future.

Glad to know I'm not the only one chugging along with an old CRT TV.
