Updated 05/25/2009 - HDTV and Surround Sound Recommendations!
Last Update: 5/25/2009
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 Order of Better Picture Quality
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!

Surround Sound Recommendations:
There is no best sound system...only what sounds best to you!
- Home Theater in a Box(HTIB) - If you have more than $400 you should go with a component setup
- Speaker Packages
- Receivers
- Front/Center Speakers
- Subwoofers:
- Cables
- Xbox360 Cables

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.
