man this is so weird. I just finished mounting the EXACT same tv today in a home in milton.

It was above a fireplace though go figure.

Aswell they had in ceiling front/centre and rear speakers, + a 10" in ceiling subwoofer, because the room was all open concept.

XBR3/2 is meh... although a good TV, I would go for the Pioneer plasmas instead.

Pioneer Plasma + Toshiba HD-A2 = Amazing
Pioneer Elite Plasma + Toshiba HD-XA2 = An experience I would like to have

LCD is where its @

LDX

Why do you say that?

The picture on a plasma is far more superior than on a LCD. A Sony XBR3/2 is probably a better choice than most plasma televisions, except for the Pioneer.

My job was to educate (no I was not a salesman) HDTVs and I have spent approximately 500 hours in a HT department + additional training.

Plasma vs. LCD will always be an ongoing debate here on TCC aswell as everywhere else. I have both and my plasma is way better then my LCD. Personal choice I guess.

I will definatly say I did like the Pioneer more but it was about 5K.
So I decided to go with Samsung, but 1 week after I put a deposit down I got a job @ Sony. So I got my deposit back and went all Sony.

LCD wise I think the XBR2/3 are the best on the market.

once you bring the TV home...the debate of which one is better goes out of the window. its like inline-6 is better than V6 or vice versa...the opinions are always divided.

so gotti..when its going on the wall?

imported_gotti78

Finally got it on the wall and picked up the stereo. Been soo busy with packing up my condo cuz I am moving into this house tomorrow..so I had to paint and get it ready for when I move in.Now just have to set the stereo up and buy a small table. The white cable is the HDMI cable, gotta get a wall plate for that.

How much was the system? I needs me one soon.

imported_JoonyaSI

nice setup ... take some pics once u get the power all setup

LDX

Yuck, a dream system. You purchased the best LCD on the market and opted for a mediocre surround sound system?

imported_JoonyaSI

someone drank them some haterade this AM ...

LDX

Oh and that system retails around 1199

imported_JoonyaSI

for both TV and speakers ... doubt that

szuberi

bahahahah...oh damn t-man

imported_gotti78

the system retails for about 4600+ tax for the LCD and 1100+ tax for the stereo

imported_Zyepher

Looks nice but how you going to run the wires?

imported_Zyepher
