TV's... what does the typical audiophile have?


Like a good stereo system, does the quality of the picture matter to the enjoyment of a program? Or is a high quality picture even necessary to "get the message" of the show?
So what do you watch your favorite show on?

Toshiba 56 Theatre wide HDTV have both dish network and Canadian express view HD satellite systems. Getting to the point if the program isn't available in high definition it's really hard to watch it anymore. standard definition signals totally suck.
Man oh man...you guys just don't get it...you chas after NOS tubes every day and bicker that old school vinyl is better than any new school digital format.

Get with the program

we all know that Black & White is better than color...the neuances provided...the deep blacks & rich grays...wait...who am I trying to kid...I'm just another sheep with a color t.v. Toshiba cinema series 32" 1998 vintage...but I dont even have cable...I get NBC and that is it...usually just watch movies.

Ellery, you're exactly right!

Color is a garrish, exagerated illusion. It can never hope to match the tonal beauty and sensuality of black and white.

I can remember when the message came blaring out of my TV when I was a kid, "The Rat Patrol, IN COLOR!"

What garbage! Sand is sand.
27" Phillips in the living room for watching baseball (let's go O's), college basketball (go Terps and go Orange, Md native and Syracuse alum), and the occasional program, Sopranos, Deadwood, Coupling, The Daily Show. My better half has a 25" Panasonic in the bedroom on which she watches all kinds of dreck, including, gasp!, soap operas.
27" Magnavox. It mainly shows Teletubbies, Wiggles, and Sesame Street for our daughter. For some inexplicable reason it automatically turns off whenever a Barney tape is loaded in the VCR :-)
