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?

The Sony 34" XBR's are amazing machines, obviously I own one. The best thing is, I got mine from Ebay for $600, including the dedicated stand! I occasionally browse and it amazes me when I see the prices on these fine TV's. Yeah, she's a tube TV and she weighs alot, guess I'm just an ol' school kind of guy! Besides, the quality's more than worth it.

When we got out XBR WEGA HDTV it was $2500 I think (won it in raffle 3 yrs ago), boy have they came down in price....but as I and others have said it beats every picture out there, period.

Of course!

Nope!

Well, don't have any "favorite show", we like watching a lot of documentaries, news and movies... both classic and contemporary...

We have a 50" Pana HD which is wall mounted that we purchased a few months ago - in fact a bunch of friends are coming over this weekend to watch some classic science fiction and some independent work this weekend.

Should be fun...
1985 Mitsubishi 26" color set w/original remote. Hey it beats getting up to change channels & adjust the rabbit-ears! I'll replace it when it croaks....
