I pray that none of you (Autopia Members) live in NYC, or work in the Trade Centers. I pray for those who have lost their lives today. Car detailing is great, but this truly puts things in perspective. I extend my condolences to those who have lost their lives, and to the families of loved ones who lost their lives.



I just wanted to say something about this. I hope that everyone has a good day today.



Best Regards,

Josh

My primary seating is 14' away from the screen so the recommended screen is under 60" so:

Pioneer Elite 57" TV
Pioneer Elite DVD
Yamaha 7 channel 900w receiver
B&W Speakers (left, center, right), and in ceiling B&W's for rear
Infinity 12" down throw Subwoofer
Rotel Power Conditioner
 
I'm a shame to take a shot of mine....27" tube type TV:mad: I think I need lots of this :money::money::money::money::money::money::money::for the set up I want.
 
Here is my old setup:

2001 Mits 65" 65907 Rear Projection CRT
M&K S-150 THX Mains
M&K S-150 THX angled Center
SpeakerCraft Aim Three, In-Ceiling Speakers for Surrounds
DIY 15" Subwoofer w / Elemental Design's E15a.22 Driver & Rythmik Audio's 380w AMP

Everything in the family room end up being built and bought around that monster of a TV. Here are some more pictures.

I've got a 16 year old Panasonic 27" TV...:redface: Man, I've got some catchin' up to do!:wink:

Actually I like to turn it on, turn the sound off and put some music on... old musician habit from the days on the road.

Bill, KNOCK IT OFF!!!!!! I have Angelo convinced nobody in the world gets paid more money then he is getting paid :devil:. Just kidding of course. I owe Angelo far more than I am paying him for all he does for this company and how he represents it. :clap::clap::clap:

I like the idea of a home theater section if everyone else wants it. I was in that industry for years. It is my second love.

Bryan,

Very nice setup. :smile:

How is the brightness on your LED DLP? We have the Samsung 50" HL-S5087W that uses the bulb in our bedroom. It produces a beautiful picture and doesn't need a darkened room Like the Mits down in the family room. I really like the idea of having less moving parts to wear out.

Hey Mike... Our Mits 65" DLP is super bright. No room darkening necessary. What model is your Mits? (BTW, I love the DLP technology also!)

Mike, Great built-in cabinet you have there. Plus some very nice components.

Our HL67a750 is a LCD based DLP, so no bulb. I love this TV, unfortunately samsung has stopped production of these due to lower margins then the flatscreens.

We have a LN46a650 LCD on the wall in the bedroom and I'd say this DLP is 85% of the picture quality of the LCD.

Never what I would consider a dim picture.
