luvdunhill Posted July 11, 2014 Report Posted July 11, 2014 Any idea what a fair price for a Panasonic TC-P42G25 is? I am looking to sell mine...
luvdunhill Posted July 11, 2014 Report Posted July 11, 2014 seven dollars, and I'll take it. A cookie would have sealed the deal ... sorry.
tkam Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Posted August 13, 2014 Anyone have a Vizio M-Series tv? I'm kinda thinking about the 70" model.
Hopstretch Posted August 27, 2014 Report Posted August 27, 2014 Walked into a local AV store and their showcase display was the late, lamented Panny TX-P65VT65. "Wish they still made those." "Yeah." "What are you going to do with that?" "Sell it, eventually." "How about selling it now?" "Let me call the boss." (Some haggling ensues.) It looks really good. 11

HiWire Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 That's exciting. I'd still go with the plasma, but it looks like OLED is finally viable in a large format. I wonder if they've found a new way to mitigate OLED's luminance degradation over its lifetime.
Torpedo Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 If you send it to me, why not? Bad jokes aside, I've watched one of those displaying some BD movie and the image was as good as anything else, but I have no idea if this is a good long term investment.
cetoole Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) The only reason one asks if one should buy something on headcase is if one already knows one wishes to buy it. Therefore: dew eet! Edited October 12, 2014 by cetoole 3
909 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 I am thinking for reasons against it or better alternatives for similar price/features, etc...
justin Posted October 19, 2014 Report Posted October 19, 2014 Anyone have a Vizio M-Series tv? I'm kinda thinking about the 70" model. i was looking at the 80" on amazon. it seems like the next few years are going to be a sucky time to buy a TV. it's still $3000 for a screen with worse quality and 1/4 as many pixels as my phone. then there is 4K. an 84" 4K TV is just 4x 42" 1080p TV panels that havent been cut apart...but sold for waaaay more than buying 4x 42" TVs.
Jon L Posted October 19, 2014 Report Posted October 19, 2014 How about the Samsung 60" Plasma for $799 with free delivery from Best Buy? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-60-class-59-9-10-diag--plasma-1080p-600hz-hdtv/8182045.p?id=1218864995544&skuId=8182045 1
909 Posted October 27, 2014 Report Posted October 27, 2014 It looks like we've settled on the Samsung PN64F8500. Now trying to negotiate price...
HeadphoneAddict Posted November 2, 2014 Report Posted November 2, 2014 Last summer we bought a Samsung UN55FH6030 55" LED 1080p 120Hz - 3D HDTV, and it's been great so far. At first I was sad I didn't get a plasma, but the blacks have been great.
909 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 My wife and I are very pleased with the picture quality of our new HDTV (Samsung PN64F8500), but the speakers suck donkey balls.
grawk Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 that's why god invented home theaters. The speakers on the TV are there for decoration only. I turned mine off when I bought my TV 8 years ago, and haven't ever turned them back on.
Dusty Chalk Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 My first good TV, the speakers were broken. I considered that a feature.
luvdunhill Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 My wife and I are very pleased with the picture quality of our new HDTV (Samsung PN64F8500), but the speakers suck donkey balls. Are you using the stock PQ settings? It can get quite better if you decide to get it calibrated.
Dreadhead Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) Not entirely on topic but my wife and I are finally moving ahead with getting plans drawn up for digging out the basement at our house to make a HT/Kids room/guest room. I'm getting rather excited about the whole thing and while I will not be able to set up the room perfectly (speakers are going to have to be wall mounted) I'm going to get around that with some technology. Right now I'm thinking BD-Player and Cable Box -> 65" TV, HT Reciever -> 8 channel AD converter -> AES digital-> 3 Genelec 8330 + 4 Genelec 8320 (or maybe 4 more 8330) + Genelec 7350A Sub running Genelec GLM network and room correction. We'll see what the budget comes out at. Another option is making it movies only and skipping the cable box downstairs. Edited November 13, 2014 by Dreadhead 3
MexicanDragon Posted November 13, 2014 Report Posted November 13, 2014 Nice DH! If you watch sports at all, cable box would be handy, otherwise why not an AppleTV or an HTPC with a BD drive? I cut cable about 5.5 years ago and there is very, very little I miss about it. The kids have Netflix and Hulu+ and YouTube... Works well for us. **BRENT**
