Vizio 47" 1080p LCD. I love this television. Blu-rays look absolutely stunning on it. I much prefer it to my Samsung 42"!

Xbox 360
PS3
Apple TV
Denon Receiver
Vintage Marantz HD770 speakers - love these, too.
Vintage Marantz EQ

The wires are usually behind the media unit, I just had it all out because I was rearranging everything.

[Zaap]

SchneiderMan and Mike Teezie- NICE! Both of those are really great looking stands.

Mike- I really like the symmetry of your whole setup, and that dark wood is awesome. Was the stand originally that color, or is it stained/painted?

I love these type of threads.

Will post my setup later!

They are not worth mentioning ;) No but seriously they are some old boxes i got from my uncle, i changed all the elements (mid, bas and tweeter) to elements intended for car audio, the bass drives is 12" and works quite well.

I am not a bass person, i am more on clear sound, i really want a B&W setup (cm9, cmc2, cm5 and 2x velodyne SPL-1200r) but i cant afford it right now, i am 22 years old and dont have a car yet so i will focus on that first.

Wow, i really went offtopic with useless information ;)

Thanks. My dad is a custom furniture designer, so I had him build the media stand for me. I had it stained it the dark color to match my dark floors.

I used to have a big round run in there, but I got tired of it. I'm looking for something else now.

Look great! i think a matte version would have been better, less reflection.

[Super-Dave-D]

Most of that is due to flash - I really never had issue with it but then again I do tend keep it kind of dark.

Love that tv, been looking at the samsung LEDs for a while. Did you hang the tv with the samsung mount (picture style), from the picture it looks completely flush but I'm guessing there's a bit of gap between the wall and tv.

What about the backlighting, the only concern I had with the reviews of the tv was the led side-lit backlighting. They say that in dark scenes the entire backlight dims not just the black areas. Any problems you've seen?

Nice tv :D

Yes I used the Samsung cable mount. It was strange handing a TV like that and NOT in a stud. The TV is almost completely flush. Its 1.5" from the wall to the front. Its so flush I caught myself complaining about connecting the cables :).

I have no issues with the backlighting at all. The benefits FAR out weight any drawbacks.

(Both systems gotten on launch day, so I have the old bulky PS2, but after opening it up to fix the laser it still works perfectly!)
My old PS2 you have to close the DVD drive with the button or the games don't work. You can't push it shut. Also the front cover on the DVD drive falls off so much we don't even bother to put it back on

And a few games with hard drives to hold them in place
Hope they were dead ones or so small that they are useless (>40 GB)

Our TVs are all old CRT's

That's too bad, with mine you can still push the DVD drive shut. I haven't had any problems with it at all other than the laser problem, although it took <30 minutes to fix.

edit: FWIW the Yamaha AVR was sold and replaced with a Denon 2310 and the Oppo HDMI switch sold as it was no longer needed since the Denon AVR has 5 inputs compared to 2 for the Yamaha.

My room is crazy small with 3 full-size doors and a double-window, so there's hardly any wall space. In reference to the above pics, my desk is on the wall to the left, my bed is on the wall opposite, and the window takes up the wall to the right. So, I have the 3-drawer MALM dresser under the tv with the BILLY bookcase holding the electronics.

I wish I could have the speakers centered and symmetrical under the tv, but this is the best setup I could come up with without building everything myself.

Mind the quality. The iPhone 4 is still not very good at handling dark situations..

Anyways. A Philips Ambilight 47" as I reckon.

And No, the ambilight was equally around the TV, it's just the tap-to-focus thing that causes the difference in the picture.

Nice table accessories kppolich. :D

thank you very much, took all my cans back last year with my roommate and picked em up.

You just quoted what they are. I took the liberty of googling RB-61, and they're made by Klipsch.
Though if you're talking about the fronts, its RF-62.

Thank you, as far as the fronts, i wish they were the 62's, in fact they are only the RF-35's. Not a bad 200$ craigslst find. RC-52 in the center.

Buy about the projector. You NEVER want to put a projector in a room where there's any windows unless you have black curtains and have a LED or LCD for the daytime.

Some really great setups in here, I would love to have a dedicated home theatre room, but our house is a little on the cozy side (not complaining mind you).

Here is the living room setup:

http://www.griffin.net.au/D70/HTPC/POR_38637.jpg

Samsung Series 6 40" 1080p LCD panel

All of our media, music, movies and TV shows are ripped and stored on a NAS (FreeNAS 8) that sits in the garage and is connected to the GigE LAN. It has two ZFS pools, one raidz1 of 6 x 2TB drives (media) and the other a mirror of 2 x 1.5TB drives (data).

Mind the quality. The iPhone 4 is still not very good at handling dark situations..

Anyways. A Philips Ambilight 47" as I reckon.

And No, the ambilight was equally around the TV, it's just the tap-to-focus thing that causes the difference in the picture.

[Acorn]

the wall mounted tvs look so nice mounted on the wall with the wires hidden into the wall. It just doesnt look good when you use wire track runners to hide them.

I want to do the wires in the wall, but the more i read about it the more complicated it got. specifically because of fire codes. you cant just run the plug into the wall. even the dvi cables have to be a certain kind. Its not my house so I have to go by the fire code in case anything happens.

Maybe in February I will pay an electrician to install a plug behind the tv. then it would just be a matter of dvi cables. anyone know what the typical cost if there is a plug below it near the floor to install one higher up.

I added the outlet behind the TV myself, it's part of what I do. Speaker wire should be CL2 rated if you are doing surround. The only wires I have running down the wall are 2 HDMI cables (one is a spare as the receiver carries all signals in one HDMI wire).

Frankly I've never associated hanging a TV over a fireplace with money and the comment just sounds absurd. I doubt these people are trying to portray wealth by where they mount their TV unless it's underwater in an indoor pool filled with mineral water. The mounts are the same price regardless unless you buy something called a down and out mount.

As for the TV over the fireplace, my issues with furniture placement could be fixed if I mounted my TV over the fireplace but I too find it way too high. Many probably do it because it has been a trend for a while where even housing developments are building niches into walls over the fireplace for TVs. I know my parents did that and frankly it's silly but their room is large so somehow it does actually work.

As for the TV over the fireplace, I agree. HDTVs are such a common item nowadays that hardly anyone will associate having a big TV with being wealthy. Pretty much any Joe Blow can get one.

Very seriously considering this for the new apartment I'm moving into on Friday. I saw it at the store the other day and stood in front of it blown away for a solid 30 minutes...absolutely STUNNING TV. Scores really high reviews, thought? It's normally $1300, on sale for $1000.

I will never understand why people choose to hang a TV over the fireplace. It's just too high, and it looks like "New Money."

I chose to mount it above mine because I don't use the fireplace (We use the one in another room) and simply because of the shape of the room. The length is at least twice the width and it allows me to do more with the space.

As far as too high, I have no trouble with the viewing angle. Feet up relaxing straight on pic and a shot from the second couch.

Yes, it is a bit high, but I also have the same signal running into the ASUS display hanging off the side of the desk. The office chair reclines like a lounger, so I usually push it back, put my feet up on the desk and recline if I am watching it. It tilts down, so that helps. When I am working at the desk, I use the ASUS instead.

[ericrwalker]

Some of you guys have your TV's way too high. Eye level or slightly higher while seated on a couch is best. Above mantels or as high as a door frame seems like you're looking up all the time. Like sitting in the front row at a theater.

I prefer having my TV lower than most mantles, but I see how mounting it over the fireplace is the only option for some rooms.

Your house seems bloody amazing.

[ILikeTurtles]

I chose to mount it above mine because I don't use the fireplace (We use the one in another room) and simply because of the shape of the room. The length is at least twice the width and it allows me to do more with the space.

As far as too high, I have no trouble with the viewing angle. Feet up relaxing straight on pic and a shot from the second couch.

To each their own - I suppose. Just not for me, nor my fireplace. Just looks trashy to me. Sorry. That's my opinion.

Yes, it is a bit high, but I also have the same signal running into the ASUS display hanging off the side of the desk. The office chair reclines like a lounger, so I usually push it back, put my feet up on the desk and recline if I am watching it. It tilts down, so that helps. When I am working at the desk, I use the ASUS instead.

Very seriously considering this for the new apartment I'm moving into on Friday. I saw it at the store the other day and stood in front of it blown away for a solid 30 minutes...absolutely STUNNING TV. Scores really high reviews, thought? It's normally $1300, on sale for $1000.

46" Sharp Aquos Quattron:

Picked up the 46"er last night and got a Sharp Aquos 3D BR player to go with it...I concur, what a gorgeous, just gorgeous TV. VERY happy. The TV was on sale for $300 off, and the BR player was free (not a cheap BR player either, it's a $200 machine), so I couldn't resist a $500 savings.

Is there a way to avoid the "soap opera effect" with this TV? My girlfriend's Samsung has that and it drives me nuts.

The effect your talking about might be the 120 hz. the newer tv's well specifically the 120 hz tvs have an entirely different picture. it would look strange or like a home camera setup for someone not used to it. I dont know of any way to turn this off other then go back to a 60 hz tv.

Hey Guys,

Saw this thread and thought why not and works well as i just purchased a new tv :D

So after owning my faithful Sony Bravia TV for 4 years i decided it was time to upgrade and purchase a new TV. As the last TV has been so good to me i decided that i would like to purchase another Sony Bravia TV.

After looking around i found the perfect one. Its a Sony Bravia 32" LED Smart TV. My last one was also only 26" so i wanted something a little bigger this time, more so for when I'm watching films :)

Anyway now lets post the images.

Before it looked like the image below. 26" TV, Xbox 360, Sky+, PS3 and deodour backlights from ikea (very good).

http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c152/mike2fast/setup/tv.jpg


So then we come to the new tv. Curently still on the same stand but it is going to be wall mounted hopefully next month. Nothing's changed really apart from having sky hd installed which i had previously with the last tv.

Then we come to my workspace area. iMac 21.5" 2011, Macbook Pro 13" 2010 and iPad 1st gen 32GB 3G.

Just wondering why so much equipment in a bedroom? I hesitated putting a 32" in mine and it is a decent size room but it is nice to watch occasionally. I prefer large TV's and theatre equipment in the rest of my house and keeping the bedroom a peaceful escape.

My modest setup at the new place--46" Aquos Quattron with a Sharp Aquos 3D BR player (and a cheapo Sony DVD player for region 2 discs for the wife), all on a $20 IKEA stand, all bought a couple weeks ago (bad white balance iPhone pic):

Unfortunately i had to move back in with my parents while i save up for a deposit for a house. Its too hard to pay 300+ for rent and save up for a decent deposit. I will set it all up in a theater room when i get my own house.

That is one tiny window in that picture. Usually windows that small are found in bathrooms up high. I was thinking it was in a basement, but it looks like there are large curtains off to the right and the high ceilings. Is there a reason behind it being there or why it's small? Curiosity has gotten the best of me.

[rg1980]

Here is my setup.

[Educ8r]

I'm not an architect, but I'm assuming it is for aesthetics and to let in more natural light.

40 GB tv
1 TB DB Time Capsule
Swan M10 Speakers

My room is crazy small with 3 full-size doors and a double-window, so there's hardly any wall space. In reference to the above pics, my desk is on the wall to the left, my bed is on the wall opposite, and the window takes up the wall to the right. So, I have the 3-drawer MALM dresser under the tv with the BILLY bookcase holding the electronics.

I wish I could have the speakers centered and symmetrical under the tv, but this is the best setup I could come up with without building everything myself.


Do you use the Swans for the tv? How is that?

[AustinH17]

This is my 'man cave' if you can call it that. Im 17 and this room was a storgae room with tons of junk and i cleaned it out and bought a futon, new tv stand,and new fan and everything else ive had. It came together but its still a work in progress. Debating if i should get netflix or not for my tv.
--- im looking for some cool floor lamps and if you guys have any ideas about what would cool in it reply on here or hit me up. Im was thinking about doing it a movie theme with movie posters and other cool posters.
