Any of you guys build your own sound absorbers/diffusers? I wanted to buy some panels, but it looks like it would be cheaper to build my own using DIY designs I've found on the intarweb.

and that's not even HD. We got our box today and watched Alien vs. Predator (it was on HD) and OMFG this TV is AMAZING. Some of the scenes BLEW my mind.

I HIGHLY recommend this TV.

My only gripe about th Bravia (and most sony HD sets) is that the native resolution is 13xx X 7xx. give me 1080 lines and I will be more happier.

I don't understand the large size.

Why don't u just go with the larger size from a projector that could cost less with the same quality (if not better).

The Samsun DLP, is actually a Projector, it's really narrow though for a projector(weights 75lbs). The entire T.V. only costs me 3,000(including taxes) after a couple hundred worth of best buy bucks . DLP is technology that lets the T.V. actually show True Black, because most HD tv's can't show true black, the black you see is actually just a form of Dark Green, I think? Maybe Blue

I found the link for it...

Thanks to Best Buy and their No Lemon Policy, I just got a 50" Panasonic Plasma TH-50PX60U. It is sweet.

ok, so we've updated...

Added the RF-7's and mounted the center channel above the TV using a rack.

The RB-75's were moved into my roommate's room. He put them as speaker set B so now he can switch the reciever to play Speaker set A (RF-7's) in the main room with the other 3 speakers or just the bookshelfs in his room. Pretty cool, IMO.
