Updated 11/23/2008 - HDTV and Surround Sound Recommendations!
Last Update: 11/23/2008

Below you'll find my recommended HDTVs, Projectors, and Sound Setups. I'll update it as I find better options for a given budget and/or application. If this thread does not list the price show on the wesbite...let me know so I can update it.

If you need any cables or speaker wire, I recommend buying them from Monoprice.

How big of an HDTV do you need?



HDTVs - In Descending Order
Remember to calibrate your new HDTV with a copy of DVE no matter what you decide to buy. Without a calibration you will NEVER see the best picture from the TV!

Well I think I'm done with the HDTV and Projector part. Now for the surround sound section...that's a lot more difficult.

Death, it would be nice if you could make sections for LCD HDTV's in the sub 1000$ price range, because lots of people are making threads about that. Also just a question, what is better the Samsung 26" High Design HDTV's or the Sharp Aquos 26" HDTV.
