    How do 3D TV's Compare to the 3D at the movie theater?

    That's probably it, but since I don't know the model numbers of the one I saw, I can't swear to it. This one is $100 cheaper.

    How do 3D TV's Compare to the 3D at the movie theater?

    I've seen about all the brands and models of 3D tvs. Most are ok. But, I was in Best Buy a few weeks ago, and saw the best 3D I've seen yet, on a home setup. I told the salesman that it was the closest thing I'd seen to the 3D of Avatar at the iMax, and that was outstanding! This setup was a 47"...

    I Finally Pulled The Trigger For An HD TV

    Not a fair comparison. Over your lifetime will definitely come out a lot more than paying a repair for one or two instances. It would have been extremely hard to shell out $400 at one time, for the transmission. The extended warranty was included in the monthly payments for the tiller. Also...

    I Finally Pulled The Trigger For An HD TV

    Extended warranties are definitely money makers for the sellers. BUT, if something happens, you'll be glad you got it. We bought a 5 hp tiller from Sears, a few years ago, and got the extended warranty. Just after the manufacturer's warranty ran out, the transmission broke on it. Sears fixed...

    Best Buy Cuts Price on Some TVs

    50" is kinda small, for sitting at that distance. Sitting 12' away, you should have about a 65" screen. But, I guess as long as you like it.............

    Best Buy Screw Up!!!!!!

    I actually like Best Buy a lot. You can get some great deals there sometimes. The closest one is about 40-45 mins. away. The closest thing we have, in our town, to an A/V store is Sears, and they really don't even come close. I have had a falling out with them (didn't get my "rewards" from...

    Best Buy Screw Up!!!!!!

    A few years ago, a local car dealer advertised a car that cost something like 1000 bananas (forget the actual number). It was some "cute" type ad. Anyway, a guy went there with the right number of bananas. Of course, the car dealer tried to laugh it off, and said "no way". The guy took them to...

    Best Buy Screw Up!!!!!!

    Normally, by law, I think stores are required to sell for the advertised price. Don't know if it pertains to internet sales though. Ask a lawyer. But if you get a lawyer involved, it'll probably cost you more than just buying the tv at regular price. Of course, you can always go to small claims...

    I'm getting excited........

    I had it at one time, but it went the way that a lot of my vinyl albums did............... somewhere in the twilight zone, to never be heard from again. I got the tv yesterday. It's looking pretty awesome right now, but I'm sure I'll be tweaking it, and playing with settings, for awhile. :)...

    I'm getting excited........

    Yeah, I wish I had that copy of the magazine. I have quite a few, just not that one. I read once, that it's the most sought after cover. You can see it better in the link, but the dog just had such a worried look on it's face. Dogs and cats can have great expressions sometimes. EDIT: I changed...

    I'm getting excited........

    Bummer! It's supposed to rain Friday (the day I'm supposed to pick it up). I may have to wait an extra day. :( I don't think it will fit in my suburban, so I'm gonna have to drive a pick up truck. I was planning an ISF calibration, but it may have to wait until next March. I only work twice a...

    I'm getting excited........

    I'm getting my first HDtv. Supposed to pick it up Friday. Best Buy had to order it. I'm looking so forward to this. Going from a 36" CRT, to a 61" DLP. This is the tv I have coming: Samsung - 61" 1080p Slim-Depth LED Engine DLP HDTV - HL61A750 I'm already a digital cable subscriber with TW...

    LCD OR DLP?

    Since I can't get an LCD in the size I want, at a reasonable price, I'll be getting an LED DLP (hopefully before Christmas). I want a minimum of 60". May go for the 67". Samsung sells a 70" LCD through Best Buy (Magnolia), but it costs $40,000. No way I can pay that for a tv, unless I win the...

    What Movie Or Scene is used to show off your setup?

    One of my favorites is the beach landing, near the beginning of "Saving Private Ryan". The dogfight scenes in "Flyboys" are also good.

    Is the new Pioneer Ellite 50 inch Kuro worth the money?

    I finally saw a Kuro a couple of weeks ago, and didn't see anything special about it. It looked just like all the other plasmas, to me. I'm not a plasma fan to begin with, and this one didn't help my impressions of them a bit. But, as long as you're happy with it, is all that matters. :) Good luck!

    New 1080p HDTVs compared

    I think they left the best one, out of the comparison. The JVC HD-ILA. It's here:http://www.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL027824&pathId=125&page=1 I've not personally seen the new ones yet, but I saw the last version, setup side by side, with the Sony SXRD, and the JVC looked better. The Sony...
