How much were those entertainment stands?
I am looking into getting that exact TV, could you tell me some more about it?Datawhore said:My setup is finally complete. I just got the stand a few days ago.
The TV is the Samsung LNS4696D (1080p LCD).
I was wondering how regular standard definition channels look on it, and is there any lag when playing games on it? Any general opinions on the tv would really help. You can PM me them if you want.
Thanks.

OK here is my new set-up as of yesterday afternoon. Man did it take for ever to put the new TV stand together and organize all the stuff inside.
Just to give an idea of what you are looking at here it is.
32" LCD HDTV
Denon amp
Toshiba HDD/DVD HD tuner
Nintendo GameCube(NES cube mod)
Nintendo Wii
PC connected to HDTV for a lot of PC fun
New Epson printer/Scanner

I'm pretty happy with the TV. The colour reproduction is amazing and HD images are fantastic. I'm finding HD DVD and 360 look far superior to HD through my cable box though, but from what I hear, this is mostly an issue with my cable provider. I'm not noticing any lag when playing Gears or Zelda.
This is the 3rd 46" HDTV I bought in the last two months and the first that I've kept. Previously, I bought the 46" Sharp 1080p Aquos, but had severe backlight bleeding with the first and horrific horizontal banding with the second. The blacks were slightly better than the Samsung (looked deeper and more uniform), but the colours on the Sammy are clearly better imho. I haven't experienced any noticeable bleeding or banding with the Sammy so I don't mind trading the deeper blacks for better colour reproduction and product quality.
The only problem with the Sammy so far, which has been widely discussed on AVSForums, is it doesn't yet have 1:1 pixel mapping on it's HDMI and Component inputs. As such, programs will be overscanned. The high end Sony and Sharp's have 1:1 pixel mapping so they don't have this problem. In reality, it's a non issue for HD programming and gaming since those content providers know about overscan and plan for it when they're filming or making a game. I honestly can't tell there's any overscan when watching Tv or gaming. The only time it's apparent, is when I connect my PC to the HDTV. I can't see the Start Bar or the far left icons on my desktop. This is really annoying if you're going to connect your PC to the TV frequently. There are two solutions though: Use VGA instead of HDMI (no overscan), or get your video card to underscan the image. Right now, I'm not doing either because I don't use it frequently enough. There are rumours that Sammy is going to release a Firmware update in North America to address this issue (they already have in Korea).
As for Standard Def, to be honest they look pretty shitty. My previous HDTV was smaller and resolved the SD images better than the Sammy, but I watch 90% of my TV in HD now so I don't really care. This Sammy's picture quality is only as good as the image you feed it. So far, nothing has compared to HD DVD (Batman Begins is unreal) and 360 games.

My setup:
^The glass door is dirty, and, somehow my 27-inch CRT SDTV (from the mid 90's...) didn't quite make into the picture... Dunno why...
I also got a PS3 since these were taken...

wtf?
My new setup for 07' kind of a work in progress still, but I did finally calibrate the TV and it looks amazing.
65" Mitsubishi DLP on temporary stand (yes, I know everything is a mess.)
I dont have the steadiest hand or the best camera so they didnt turn out as well as I would have liked but oh well.

I found this part to be the hardest in the game. Heck I even have the lines memorized from replaying it so many times.
"Lookit all that Juiceee"
"Marcus, how much do you think all that Emulsion is worth?"
"I don't even wanna think about it, but it's probably a lot."

None of this stuff is really that hard. This is my first home, so it was my first time doing most of this stuff. I just bought the books and the tools and went with it.ghostmind said:

Well, my setup hasn't changed a whole lot since the last time I posted in one of these, but I have added my new Wii, 20" SDTV (only $100 at BB!), and completely updated my PC.
E6400, 2GB DDR2 800 OCZ RAM, X1950 Pro, all in here:
And, guess what the game is that I've been spending the most time playing on my brand spanking new computer? KOTOR. Oh yeah.

Wow at some of the set ups in this thread. It's obvious to me now that I don't even come close to what a lot of other people are prepared to spend on tech. Yes, I am jealous.
So finally, after promising some half a year ago to provide pics in the old thread. Here is my set up.
TV + DVD + Wii + PS2 + a very small sampling of my DVD collection (and Monkey Ball figurines for the keen eyed):
Close up of the two consoles. They are the only active consoles (barring hand held) in my collection:
Here is my 'retro' console rack. Although you'll note there are boxes from very new consoles. Basically, it's my collection so far that is going to eventually grow to be much bigger:
Close up of the boxed versions. The pride of my collection is a first generation C64 (quite rare):
My PC game collection. There's much more but they are in single CD cases and you can't really see them:
My PC set up (ignore the two white PCs. They don't even get powered on anymore. My actual PC is the giant black thing on the left). Yeah, that's a life size Chatterer bust. It's cool. Also, note the SX-64 on the right, with network card:
My game collection. It doesn't look like much in the picture. But the damn shelf is stuffed to capacity. All C64 games on the bottom shelf. Megadrive / SNES / NES / N64 / GBA / lots of other systems games in the middle. DS / PS2 / Wii / GC / PSP games up the top. Note the Q3 tin box, signed by Tim Willits and Paul Steed:

I love theses threads too. This weekend I'm going to get around to taking some some pics pf mine and posting them. I have a 50" Panny RP-LCD. I like it a lot. The main reason I got it though was for it's inputs. 4 component, 2 VGA and 1 HDMI. No switch boxes necessary. ;-)
