Carlo you may be younger than others, but youre one of the few around here that grasps video and sound, keep it up bro!
If you though the rear proj DLP set looked good, you should see it properly calibrated in a room thats dark. They are amazing.
If I ever get a rear projection set again, itll be DLP, although I should have kept my Pioneer CRT for another room, I miss her sometimes.
lifes too short for wanting so many damn toys!!
I dont even respond to the blatant uneducated comments anymore. I'll leave that to you and twisted, lol
whats next? someone saying VHS is surperior to DVD?
Thanks man, I really appreciate it. For now I'm probably gonna pick up a cheap crt monitor so I can get my xbox360 set up in my room, then I'll start the saving up for a dlp.
I'm still not 100% on what I'm gonna end up with, but so far just getting amonitor seems like the best setup for my room. I mean, I got an empty desk with an amazingly comfortable leather desk chair with around 60 degree tilt. Before I pick up any kind of surround sound setup, my 80 watt jvc stereo should do me just fine with my xbox360 as aux.
I'm gonna go budget, basically, for a while. If I like my monitor setup, then might keep it.
I must admit one thing, though. Having a projector project and image 6 feet infront of me in a small bedroom is pretty impractical. I might pick one up once I start college (university, to be exact) but everything is up in the air. So far, spending the nice 170$ on a Samsung 793mb 17" crt monitor seems like the right decision for me in these certain circumstances. As much as I'd like a projector 90" screen with an expensive surround sound setup, I have to be realistic in terms of how much csh I got and what other things I will need money for, such as school.
I'll pick up the most affordable surround sound setup (with digital outs, of course) that sounds good enough for my small bedroom. I mean, that's who they build the low end Htib systems for. I just gotta make sure I get a digital in.
As you can see, I ramble on about my thoughts to clear up things in my head, but at least this way there are some helpful people to respond as well.
