Yes too big for the room you have it in. Just my opinion....I like my set up. INfocus IN24 digital projector on a 110" screen mounted to the wall of my theater. Plus the projector and the screen only cost me about $600 together and I don't have a bulky ass obsticle to avoid.

Good tv other than the small room you have it in, judging by the pic. But hey you like it, and thats wll that matters.

Later !!!

Well, it fills the area lol

[B16a2 Civic]

Moved to pictures
Everything don't belong in the wl

[B16a2 Civic]

Nice tv though, I'd get another stand or have it installed on the wall

[dtmcnamara]

well i am renovating the basement right now and have a stand just dont feel like ditching the dresser for a tv stand i need clothing

[BluesClues]

I agree it is too big for that room

[krindus]

Yeah, Projector on the wall, 100+ inches, ftw. TV's are nice, especially that one. But nothing beats life sized porn.

[Kckouki]

Hotness, I want one in my room.

[Ltdnismorace]

I got a 32 inch sony wega that would look much more to scale in that room and I guess I could stretch and trade you straight up

[ISAtlanta300]

That's going to give you a lot of headaches... especially being so big and DLP to boot....

[dtmcnamara]

yal i got a headache yesterday playing Ghost Recon 2 yesterday. I shoul dhave the basement cleaned out friday so I can get my surround sound all in. I will post pics as soon as I get it all finished.

Onkyo sr804 receiver
4 mirage omnisat v2 satellite speakers
klipsch rw12d sub

should blow the fuck out of my basement. and if it dont, i will just get 2 of the klipsch subs.

[william_jeff]

where is the room?

[Sol-Badguy]

I'm jealous.

Right now, all I have is a 27" TRUTECH (Target brand ftl.)

[Rican219]

Looks like it will fall off the dresser

[Complete]

u can watch tv from everyroom with that... nice tv tho

[nadaklu]

Got a 42" DLP myself, although I must say if I buy another it will most definitely be an LCD. Had too many issues with the DLP.. "It's all in the mirrors" my ass. I work at CCity and I've noticed the DLP's are more inexpensive, but the more I have my DLP the more I realize there is a reason for the price difference in DLP and LCD.

For the money though you got a great T.V. Nice surround set up too.
GL man

[TBoDelSol]

I worked for CC and BB too and DLP are going to cost more than LCD because one they look better on picture than a LCD. only thing you have to watch out for is don't put the tv on its side cause of the mirrors and 2 you have to replace the bulb about every year and a half but its like 200 dollars and you can do your self unless you bought a warranty. I have a 61" DLP HDTV 1080p from samsung as well as a 50" HDTV 1080p from them I love them for the price but in my computer room its 2 32" HDTV 1080p LCD from Olevia that I use as PC mointors. Now as for your Tv you bought I would get a Stand for it right away also why so big? unless you plan on moving out and getting into a place that can support the Tv of that size. If not then you wasted your money. When you sit to close to a big tv you see all the pixels and it looks horrible. but then again you like I love it

Over all Great choice in brand and Tv YOU WILL BE VERY HAPPY :goodjob:

the reason its soo big is because i am moving into the basement and right now it is all hell with storage shit. I am/have been boxing up shit and getting it out so i can move there. the room i will be moving into is about 4 times larger so the tv will be more proportioned in the new room.

The only thing worth laughing at is the gamerscore of 240:D

Looks good though! :cheers:

Sorry about the crappy (yet way too large) pics, but it came from my wifes crappy cam.

Later !

[ISAtlanta300]

r u going to ceiling mount that projector?

[DemonEyez]

altho the samsung 1080p are pretty nice u shoulda went witht he new toshiba dlp tv's.. they are ALOT nicer. and usually cheaper.

Again tho the samsungs arent bad. their prolly no.3 on my list of PTV's

you are crazy those samsungs kill the panosonics

[DemonEyez]

you are crazy those samsungs kill the panosonics

sorry.. i view the samsung 61" next to the toshiba 65 and 57 all day long and it simply doesnt compare. hell the picture of the samsung actually looked better once i turned their DNIe enhancement off.

[TBoDelSol]

and i take it you work at a electronic store all day to view these

[GSRteg®]

Naw ok size

[LeX]

I have the 56 DLP 1080p . If i get another i'll actually get an older one. I really liked my mistubishi standard rear projection HDTV

[KAKid240]

I like it, maybe a little large, but looks like a damn good TV...

[AnthonyF]

how i would LOVE to play gears of war on there!!!

[DemonEyez]

yeah i do work at an electronics store. like i said tho

if comparing the 06 models. the samsung is prolly the second best projection set out there.

but with the 07 models the new toshiba's are amazing. also have the new LED samsung set out there and man o man they are horrible. The old ones looked better. Also every led set's screen i've seen has swirls in it

but the one you have doesnt look to be the LED one so like i said ya good tv.

[JayKnight]

r u going to ceiling mount that projector?

More than likely....I am going to have it suspended by some sort of custom box to look like it is actually part of the ceiling. Good thing about this theater is...I used a drop ceiling. This way I can just remove the panels to run the wires and not have a crap load exposed everywhere. I also installed a power outlet abouve the ceiling just for the projector.

The projector I have is awesome....HDMI Ready, and capable of 760p, 760i 1080p, and 1080i.....I can not wait til the screen is finished and the carpet.

Oh Super Bowl party at my house !!!

sounds nice man. is it capable of a 1080 signal or does it actually produce a 1080 resolution? been thinking alot about a similar setup in my basement.

It will reproduce what ever signal is Input to it. So if you have a crap ass beta...guess what, if you have a 1080 signal Ta-Da...Crystal Clear.

Now I can start buying all the cool IMAX DVDs (Such as the Blue Angles, and Living Sea). But most of all I can not wait to play some Need For Speed, GT4 or any of my games for that matter....I am an older guy so I am not keeping up with all the new hotness, but I am gonna Kick Master Chiefs ass on HALO, since he will be damn near as big as me.

But now I am going to get the steering wheel controler for my Xbox or PS2 and play all my racing games on the in car view.

Can not wait...I will post pics when complete.

Later !

[ISAtlanta300]

what kind of projector is it? I can't make up my mind between a projector or a 60" lcd/ plasma... though i am very tempted by the sony "pearl" projector..

[kpc2593]

Damn...Nice...How much did you stack??

[Shawna]

mmm that is the exact TV that I want I love Samsung DLPs good choice!!!!

[ironchef]

Just got a new mitsubishi 57 in 1080p dlp, loving it, very nice and crisp.

[DUBSf22c]

i c a wii and ofcourse 360.. good choices!

[speedminded]

Got the same Samsung in 51", moved stuff around and could use a bigger one now...trade ya! :D Already get motion sickness watching the in-car replays on Forza2, lol.

[con]

bigger is better.......

now I feel like small change.......40" LCD 1080p Samsung

[JayKnight]

OK here are some pics of the finished theater. Just look back to page 2 to see the before pics. Enjoy !!!
This pic is just for referrence to the size of the screen, and there was way too much light to do the pic justice. But believe me...this thing is the shit.

This is a better pic to show everything, all I need now is some furniture. But all in all this is by far the best money I have spent.
